The National Health Authority (NHA) has released a consultation paper on the Unified Health Interface (UHI), for comments from stakeholders. The paper, which can be accessed by clicking here, outlines the UHI's prospective design, scope and role.

UHI is an open, interoperable platform  which intends to connect all digital health solutions and aims to transform the way digital health services are rendered in India. To provide some reference, UHI is designed to be similar to the UPI (Unified Payments Interface) ecosystem which has emerged for digital payments.

Currently, patients and healthcare providers need to be on the same application to avail and provide digital health services, respectively. However, with UHI, this is all set to change. This interface shall enable public and private solutions and apps to plug in and be a part of National Digital Health Ecosystem.

To start with patients and healthcare providers to engage in the discovery, booking, payment and fulfillment of a variety of digital health services across applications. Over time, the services enabled by the platform will evolve with the market ecosystem.

The paper sets out some questions for consultation, which is attached.

We request members to share any feedback to jayakumar@nasscom.in on or before 16.08.2021. We would also like to have any general feedback/comments beyond the questions listed.
