The National Health Authority (NHA) hosted an ABDM Multi-stakeholder Meeting, on Tuesday. NHA leadership, state ABDM teams, representatives from Development Partners, Interface Agencies, and Digital Solution Companies building ABDM-enabled software all attended the event. Dr Basant Garg, Additional CEO, NHA, and Mission Director, ABDM, launched an exclusive date-entry Mobile Application for field level functionaries and a login-based dashboard for effective monitoring at the National, State, and Microsite levels during the event.

Previously, the NHA announced the 100 Microsites Project under ABDM in July 2023 as an effort to boost digital health adoption and, as a result, make healthcare more accessible to all, particularly those in the private sector. Within the context of ABDM, a Microsite is a collection of all small and medium-sized clinics, nursing homes, hospitals (ideally 10 bedded), labs, pharmacies, and other healthcare institutions that are ABDM-enabled and provide digital health services to patients. As of today, 29 ABDM Microsites have been launched in 10 states/UTs across the country. In the event, Sh. Ranjan Kumar, Secretary (Health) and State Mission Director, ABDM, Uttar Pradesh, introduced 35 more microsites in the state of UP, bringing the total number of microsites in the country to 64.

Addressing the audience, Dr. Basant Garg, Additional CEO, NHA & Mission Director, ABDM said – “Our learnings from the ABDM Microsites pilots have given us insights into the challenges faced by the smaller health facilities and the apprehensions of the patients in adopting digital health services. Together with our development partners, state teams and other stakeholders, we are focusing on micro-level trainings for capacity building of our field teams and more effective awareness material to communicate about the benefits of digital services enabled by ABDM.”

Experience sharing sessions and panel discussions were held at the stakeholders meeting by Development Partners [PATH Foundation, Clinton Health Access Initiative (CHAI), WISH Foundation, and ACCESS Health International], State teams, Interface agencies [HLFPPT, Doctors For You, Entero Labs, Bhavya Health, Alert India, Eehul Foundation, and Youth for Action], and Digital Solutions Companies [IPlit, Bajaj Finserve Health, Caare, ClinAlly mPower Health, Cloud Pathology, Driefcase.
