DRiefcase becomes NHA approved PHR app for Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission roll-out

This integration will now allow users to create their own Ayushman Bharat Health Account (or ABHA address), and ensure that the created medical records are issued to the correct individual or accessed by a health information user only after proper consent is granted

DRiefcase has now become the first PHR (Personal Health Records) app to be approved by the National Health Authority (NHA) for Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission (ABDM) roll-out.

Commenting on the approval, Sohit Kapoor, Founder & Director, DRiefcase said, “Digital technology will be the springboard for India’s leap into an integrated healthcare ecosystem that delivers better quality care, superior patient experience, faster insurance processing, and ultimately universal health coverage. As India’s first app to be approved for ABDM roll-out, we are cognizant of the trust placed not only in our technology but also our vision to bridge the information gap that is holding back the potential of our healthcare sector.”

This integration will now allow users to create their own Ayushman Bharat Health Account (or ABHA address), and ensure that the created medical records are issued to the correct individual or accessed by a health information user only after proper consent is granted. This will ensure safe and efficient flow of information and hence bridge the information gap that exists between patients and caregivers, and through them, the other stakeholders in the ecosystem, such as pharma companies, insurance companies and governments. Users will also be able to link existing records in their health locker into ABDM. Thus, DRiefcase will be the first platform in India to provide a fully integrated user-side experience of the ABDM.
