Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission (ABDM) for seamless Health insurance Services

 The Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission (ABDM) is a flagship initiative of the Government of India to create a national digital health ecosystem that will enable seamless sharing of health records across healthcare providers and empower individuals to manage their own health.

The mission has four key building blocks:

·         Unique Health ID (UHID): A unique identifier for every individual in the country.

·         Health Registries: Registries of healthcare professionals, healthcare facilities, and digital  health solutions.

·         ABHA (Ayushman Bharat Health Account): A personal health record (PHR) that individuals can use to store and manage their own health data.

·        Health Data Exchange (HDE): A secure and interoperable platform for sharing health data between different stakeholders in the healthcare ecosystem.

The ABDM is still in its early stages of implementation, but it has the potential to revolutionize the way healthcare is delivered in India. Here are some of the potential benefits of the mission:

·         Improved access to healthcare regardless of their location or socioeconomic status.

·         Better coordination and share of health records seamlessly, will improve care and reduce the risk of medical errors.

·         Empowered individuals to make informed decisions about their health.

·         Reduced costs: The ABDM is expected to reduce the cost of healthcare by improving efficiency and reducing duplication of services.


·         A healthcare provider can use the ABDM to share health data with a patient's insurance company, which can help to streamline the claims process.

The ABDM is still under development, but it is already being used by millions of Indians. The government is working with a wide range of stakeholders, including healthcare providers, insurance companies, and technology companies, to implement the mission and make it a success.

  Private insurance companies in India are more technologically advanced than Public Sector Undertaking insurance companies (PSUs). This is partly due to the fact that PSUs are government-owned and operated. Private insurance companies have been quicker to adopt new technologies to improve their customer experience, operational efficiency and product innovation. They have been more responsive to changing customer needs and have introduced a wider range of innovative products. PSU Companies have traditionally relied on branches and human agents to sell and service policies. They are more cautious about introducing new products. Here are some specific examples of how private insurance companies are using technology to differentiate themselves from PSUs: ·     Chatbots to provide customer service and support and even generate personalized quotes. ·      Artificial intelligence (AI) to improve underwriting and claims processing capabilities. ·     ...
