Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission (ABDM) has been launched with the aim to enable interoperability of health data within the health ecosystem and creating longitudinal electronic health records of every citizen. ABDM comprises key registries such as the Ayushman Bharat Health Account (ABHA), healthcare professional registry (HPR), health facility registry (HFR), and drug registry.
As of 6th February 2025, a total of 73,98,09,607 ABHA have been created, 3,63,520 health facilities have registered on HFR, 5,64,851 healthcare professionals have registered on HPR, 1,59,020 health facilities are using an ABDM-enabled software and 49,06,02,540 (~49.06 Cr) health records have been linked with ABHA.
The total 73,98,09,607 ABHA correspond to 36 States/UTs spanning 786 districts across the country meaning that the entire country is being covered, including rural areas. Similarly, the 1.59 lakh health facilities that use an ABDM-enabled software correspond to 36 States/UTs and 786 districts.
Inclusion is one of the key principles of ABDM. The digital health ecosystem created by ABDM supports continuity of care across primary, secondary, and tertiary healthcare in a seamless manner. It aids the availability of health care services, particularly in remote and rural areas through various technology interventions like telemedicine etc.
Various steps have been taken to ensure that the benefits of the Mission reach every citizen. The ABHA portal [abha.abdm.gov.in] and the government PHR (personal health record) applications such as the ABHA app and Aarogya Setu app have been made multi-lingual and intuitive to use, with a view to address the lack of digital literacy. The mission provides for assisted and offline mode for the creation of ABHA for areas with limited internet connectivity or hardware or both.
The Union Minister of State for Health and Family Welfare, Shri Prataprao Jadhav stated this in a written reply in the Rajya Sabha today.
