Its aim is to establish a National Digital Health Ecosystem by creating an online platform enabling interoperability of health data within the health ecosystem to create longitudinal electronic health record of citizens & facilitate delivery of health services through this Digital Health Ecosystem.

On 27^th September 2021, the national rollout of the ABDM has been announced. As on date, Rs 45 Cr has been released to National Health Authority (NHA) for implementation of ABDM.

Till 28th March 2022, a total of 20,97,55,222 Health IDs (ABHA Number) have been created in the country. The detail of state wise Health IDs (ABHAs) created is at Annexure.

As implementing agency, National Health Authority (NHA) has initiated awareness campaigns in healthcare facilities through IEC materials.
