People will get unique digital health ID under scheme: Health Minister
Prime Minister Narendra Modi will announce the nationwide roll-out of Pradhan Mantri Digital Health Mission on September 27, Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya has stated on Twitter.
Mr. Mandaviya added, “Under this, a unique digital health ID will be provided to the people, which will contain all the health records of the person.”
The Prime Minister, during his Independence Day speech last year, had announced that “a new campaign” would begin called the National Digital Health Mission (NDHM). “Every Indian will get a Health ID card. Every time you visit a doctor or a pharmacy, everything will be logged in this card. From the doctor’s appointment to the medication, everything will be available in your health profile,” he had said.
