Digital Health Initiatives in Rajasthan

Rajasthan has been taking steps to leverage digital technologies to enhance healthcare delivery, improve maternal and child health outcomes, and build a robust digital health ecosystem in the state.

Last month, Rajasthan announced a groundbreaking shift in its healthcare delivery system by transitioning to a fully online health management platform.

The initiative, named "Integrated Health Management System 2.0," aims to enhance health services across the state, marking a step ahead towards accessible healthcare for all residents.

The Integrated Health Management System 2.0 will provide a range of online health services designed to improve patient experience and healthcare outcomes.

Key features highlighted in the official statement include electronic health records, a DIGI health locker, tele ICUs, and geo-tagging based hospital facilities.

Additionally, the system will eliminate queues for patients, offer a unified digital survey, and implement a single window system for health-related licenses and NOCs. With the majority of health services moving online, patients are expected to enjoy more convenient access to treatment.

The shift towards digital healthcare is set to streamline processes, reduce waiting times, and enhance overall patient satisfaction.

In another recent development, the Rajasthan Medical Department announced plans to use its indigenous app to track seasonal diseases as part of its mission to achieve digital health transformation.

This app will record data on diseases such as dengue, malaria, and chikungunya, allowing for real-time monitoring, identification of disease hotspots, and prediction of potential outbreaks.

According to the department, this initiative will aid in the effective deployment of resources and the implementation of preventative measures.
