Abstract

The National Digital Health Mission intends to build the foundation essential to back the digital healthcare infrastructure. It will also aim to digitally reconcile the gap among different stakeholders in India's healthcare sector. The National Health Authority (NHA) is the government body to implement the program following its principle guidelines. According to NDHM, individuals will get a health card containing every detail and current health record of the cardholder. This mission will connect medical practitioners and patients digitally. Additionally, promote stable and well-structured healthcare across the Nation. The primary objectives of the National Digital Health Mission in India, establish and improve the digital healthcare system that manages crucial digital healthcare data and infrastructure for absolute service exchange. Create international grade health records of individuals with their sane consent. This will help exchange records easily among patients, healthcare professionals and service providers. Boost digital health cards among the citizens, which will hold credible data of medical experts, medical workers, healthcare institutions, clinics, pharmacies and drugs. Promote open standards to adopt by national digital healthcare stakeholders.
