The HIMS will be implemented to provide effective healthcare services to the residents of Delhi, in the most efficient manner, through technologically empowered healthcare processes.  CM Kejriwal said that with the coming of the e-health card, the healthcare facilities will be extended to all which will provide convenience to the residents of Delhi seeking treatment in the Delhi government hospitals. 

The health officials gave a presentation for the implementation of HIMS and issuing of the e-health cards. Under HIMS, various features such as web portal, mobile app, etc will be launched to store a database of the health information of the residents of Delhi. The HIMS will be implemented by August 2021 in all the Delhi government hospitals. The system seeks to target the healthcare delivery process. All the patient care services, hospital administration, budgeting and planning, supply chain management, and backend services and processes will be brought under the system. The entire system will be on the cloud and digitized which will enable the citizens to avail of information on one platform, which will help them in emergency cases.  With this, Delhi will become the only state to have a cloud-based health management system. This facility will also be extended to private hospitals in the future.
