INTRODUCTION In July 2018 , the National Institution for Transforming India (NITI Aayog) proposed the development of a digital platform called ‘ National Health Stack (NHS )’ with the aim to create digital health records for all the citizens of India by the year 2022. In July 2019 , NITI Aayog came up with a report ‘ National Digital Health Blueprint (NDHB) ’ which outlines the action plan to realize the development of National Health Stack. The National Digital Health Blueprint acts as a strategic and technical foundation of the National Digital Health Mission. 15 th August 2020 : Launch of National Digital Health Mission. At present, the programme is renamed as Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission( ABDM)
VISION To create a national digital health ecosystem that supports universal health coverage in an efficient, accessible, inclusive, affordable, timely and safe manner, that provides a wide-range of data, information and infrastructure services, duly leveraging open, interoperable, standards-based digital systems, and ensures the security, confidentiality and privacy of health-related personal information
OBJECTIVES
Principle Guidelines
Key Components
Unique Health Identity ( UHiD )
Personal Health Record (PHR) Electronic application for an individual’s health related information that conforms to nationally recognized interoperability standards and that can be drawn from multiple sources while being managed, shared, and controlled by the individual.
Each Health ID will be linked to a health data consent manager. Consent Management Framework : to ensure that citizens /patient data is in complete control of what data is collected and how/whom it is shared and for what purpose and how it is processed. Individuals will have right to share only a part of their record with doctors as per their will. Individuals will have the right to review and revoke any consent that has been issued including time limitations. NDHM will institutionalize an Informed Consent Policy to standardize the processes related to consent management

HEALTHCARE FACILITY REGISTRY
The architecture is laid out at: National, State and Local Level, in a decentralized manner, following the principle of minimality at each level Each level has the systems designed in 4 Layers, each layer consisting of a set of building blocks of a particular type, namely, Infrastructure, Data, Technology and Application building blocks.
India Stack has repurposed the UPI technology for healthcare. Much like UPI, Individuals with UHiD will able to connect with doctors of their choice through any app compatible with it, share health information and receive health reports. Unified Health Interface (UHI)
Implementation Strategy
IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY PHASE 1 PHASE 2 PHASE 3 Health ID Personal Health Record DigiDoctor Health Facility Registry
The pilot phase of ABDM was successfully conducted between 15 th August 2020 to 27 th September 2021 in six Union Territories - Andaman & Nicobar, Chandigarh, Dadra & Nagar Haveli and Daman & Diu, Ladakh, Lakshadweep and Puducherry. On 27 th September 2021, the national rollout of the ABDM has been announced. Till 24 th Aug 2022, 23 Cr UHIDs , 1,35,000 Health facilities, 42,000 Healthcare professionals have been registered and 6 lakh downloads of Health records application. Sandbox environment: This system allows the testing of the technologies or products of public as well private org. in accordance with the NDHM standards, who wants to be a part of this ecosystem.
Future Implementations
Conclusion With increased ease of use, acceptance by the people and adaptation by service providers, digital health interventions can accelerate progress towards UHC and improve population health outcomes. NDHM will contribute significantly to achieving the goals of National Health Policy 2017 and the SDGs related to health. However, the failure of a similar National Health Service (NHS) in the United Kingdom must be a learnt lesson from and the technical and implementation-related deficiencies must be proactively addressed.
