About Swasth Bharat Portal

• It is a unified platform designed to integrate fragmented health programme systems across the country.
• It acts as a one-stop aggregator platform to integrate programme systems via APIs, enabling interoperability and reducing administrative burden
• It is a single platform
  • To eliminate duplicate data entry, streamline reporting, and support faster decision-making across health programmes.
  • To provide easy access, along with data visualisation tools and the use of data at the local level for monitoring and evidence-based planning.
• It is designed to evolve into a comprehensive and interoperable digital health ecosystem, further integrating with national registries such as the Healthcare Professionals Registry (HPR) and Health Facility Registry (HFR).
• The portal is ABDM-compliant and supports integration with ABHA (Ayushman Bharat Health Account), enabling seamless and secure exchange of patient health records. 
• It envisages the following
  • Reduce Infrastructure Duplication: Independent hosting, storage, and compute resources are maintained across programs, which will reduce when they will be aggregated through Swasth Bharat
  • Reduce Repetitive Data Entry: Similar beneficiary data which was entered across multiple systems will be entered on a single platform thus reducing repetitive tasks
  • Unified HR Deployment: Separate development and maintenance teams are required in all programs, a unified system will reduce the HR burden
  • Increased Interoperability: As the system is designed on federated architecture via APIs, the interoperability will be higher
