New Delhi: National Health Authority (NHA) will be hosting its first ever open-to-all hackathon series to drive ideation and innovations around different building blocks in the Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission (ABDM) ecosystem.
The series will begin with a hackathon – ‘Round 1: Kickstarting Unified Health Interface (UHI)’ slated for 14th to 17th July 2022.
The hackathon shall be focussed on the Unified Health Interface (UHI) and would aim at mobilising the health start-up ecosystem in India and bringing together individuals and organisations to develop solutions through UHI.
The hackathon will provide an excellent opportunity for innovators, data experts and developers from all over the world to collaborate and build innovative solutions for providing access to digital health services through UHI.
UHI is designed as an open network to enable the interoperable transaction of digital health services such as teleconsultation, official release said.
Through UHI, patients can discover, book, conduct and pay for services offered by a variety of participating providers from any application of their choosing.
This stands in contrast to the current mode of digital health service delivery, where patients and doctors must transact using a common application or platform.
