The Delhi government will launch a cloud-based Health Information Management System (HIMS) to be targeted by the year 2022. This will facilitate people to get eHealth Cards and also be able to book online appointments with doctors at government hospitals. According to the official statement, the Delhi govt will conduct surveys across the state to make certain every citizen can get their eHealth Card made. These cards will also be made at hospitals and other dedicated centers. Under the project, QR code-based eHealth Cards will be issued to the residents of Delhi on the basis of Voter ID and population registry from which demographic and basic clinical information of each patient can be obtained.
As part of the project, eHealth Cards will be assigned to each citizen, which will be a repository of medical information. Doctors will be able to see patient's medical history using the card and patients will be able to take appointments from home.
The HIMS will also have a dedicated helpline where call centers will be set up for the convenience of the people and address their grievances. The setup of these centers is targeted to be completed in the next three months. Reviewing the progress of the project, Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal instructed officials to expedite timelines to provide the people of Delhi "freedom from their woes" in this field.The System will be a monumental step towards getting the people of Delhi freedom from their problems," Kejriwal added.
