We have collaborated with the State Governments of Bihar, Assam and Karnataka and demonstrated the impact of digitisation in primary healthcare by digitally empowering 1200+ Front Line Workers and over 150 health staff in Primary Healthcare. They are now enabled to use technology for better decision making and to provide quality healthcare to ensure effective patient engagement both at facility level and at community level. This has given a fillip to continuum of care through ABDM framework. Implementation of Digital Public Good, AMRIT, revolutionised the data democracy both at state level and at district level, and made information available to health providers , bureaucrats and state policy makers towards make better decision making. We also collaborated with the Government of Karnataka to demonstrate mobile based Health and Wellness Centre Application to minimise large-scale investment on infrastructure for primary healthcare. mHWC ABDM compliant application was also designed for low resource centers to enable effective outputs- quick patient onboarding, simple UI for users and easy generation of electronic health records along with easy digital prescriptions and integration with state inventory management system for easy handling by pharmacies.
Our change agents speak.
ANM Geeta Kumari, Turki, Bihar: “It’s very beneficial for us. We are becoming digitally literate and providing digital-based health check-up services. We no longer need to carry physical reports; everything is maintained on a digital server. It’s now much easier to conduct tests like BP, Glucose, Haemoglobin, and Fetal Heart Rate using Healthcube and Fetosense devices.”
GNM Anjali Singh, Chandrahatti: “Using AMRIT and Healthcube has been incredibly useful. Previously, with no lab technician available, generating test reports was challenging. Now, all reports are printed, and we can perform tests using a single device. Teleconsultation is also possible, greatly aiding both patients and healthcare providers.”
Beneficiary Shobha Kumari, Chandrahatti: “It’s been a significant improvement for us. Previously, we couldn’t get any test reports quickly. Today, I came for medicine, and the ANM tested my BP and blood sugar promptly, providing me with my report immediately along with the prescribed medicine.”
Beneficiary Neelam Devi, Chandrahatti: “Previously, getting test reports was slow and inconvenient. Now, thanks to the facility improvements, I received my test report quickly and printed. The ANM assured me that my health record is securely stored in the computer.”
Community Health Officer Prakash, Kolar: “The HWC mobile app is the best tool we’ve used. With speech-to-text and quick registration, along with mandatory fields, it simplifies workflow. From patient entry to exit, data capture is accurate and swift.”
