The National Digital Health Mission (NDHM) aims to develop the backbone necessary to support the integrated digital health infrastructure of the country. It will bridge the existing gap amongst different stakeholders of Healthcare ecosystem through digital highways. NDHM has laid out 3 milestones that facilities must incorporate in order to be certified by National Health Authority and integrate with the NDHM ecosystem. Bahmni would serve as a goto NDHM compliant Hospital Management System which facilities can adopt to integrate seamlessly with the NDHM ecosystem
The following image depicts the patient experience that can be leveraged after integration with the NDHM infrastrcture.
To leverage the above mentioned complete patient experience, NDHM recommends developing this experience in three milestones:
Milestones | Deadline | Status |
|---|---|---|
| 15th Sept 2021 | |
2. Building Health Information Provider (HIP) services to share digital records via Personal Health Records (PHR) app | ||
3. Developing Health Information User (HIU) services to provide view of patient’s medical history to authorized healthcare workers with complete consent | 15th Sept 2021 |
Must have:
Health ID verification during registration where patient verbally shares the Health ID
Authentication of health ID via patient’s preferred authentication mode (Mobile OTP/ Aadhar OTP)
HIP should be able to link the care contexts to the patient’s health ID
HIP should ensure that an SMS is sent to patients with a trigger to PHR app when a new care context is created
HIP should be able to create a care context and share the following types of records: Prescription, Diagnostic report, OPD notes, Discharge Summary and Immunization record
Bahmni should enable authorized medical providers to raise consent from the HIU portal to access patient’s medical data
Nice to have:
Health ID verification via QR code where patient scans the HIP QR code / Facility scans the QR code on the patient’s Health card
Health Documents as a medical record type
Not in scope:
Creation of Health ID
The above architecture shows the integration of Bahmni as a Health Information Provider and Health Information User with the NDHM ecosystem.
