The Union Health Ministry will soon launch a drive across the country to register for the Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission aiming to compile digital health records of the individual.
"Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission is a revolution and will help us in keeping digital records. Health and wellness centres are important for screening and early detection of disease and therefore cure can be timely done," Union Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya said.
While addressing the inaugural programme of the Health Pavilion at ITF2021, Mandaviya said, "Health is not trade for us but for total health, people should get good facilities, this is what we desire." The purpose of the health pavilion is to create awareness and project the importance of total health which is synonymous with affordable healthcare. He announced a month-long campaign as part of "Azadi Ka Amrut Mahotsav" to create awareness.
Malviya had peddled his way to the pavalllion to create health awareness among the people.
"As much as Rs 64,000 crore has been sanctioned by the Government of India with the aim that every district will be covered to strengthen health infrastructure of the country," said Mandaviya adding that, "We need more doctors and we are investing in hospitals and increasing doctor-patient ratio also".
He highlighted the achievements of the country in terms of high vaccination coverage. "We have achieved 113 crore vaccination doses administration with the support of various stakeholders," he said.
