Srinagar- Jammu and Kashmir has achieved a landmark milestone in digital healthcare by generating over 1.05 crore Ayushman Bharat Health Accounts (ABHAs) under the Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission (ABDM), officials said. The achievement marks a major step in transforming healthcare delivery across the Union Territory through technology-driven, integrated services.

The total number of ABHAs in J&K has reached 1,05,04,499, reflecting rapid adoption of digital health infrastructure.“Jammu & Kashmir is not only advancing in health services and digital payments, but is also emerging as a frontrunner in digital healthcare,” an official associated with ABDM said.

Launched nationally by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in September 2021 and rolled out in J&K in July 2022, the mission aims to create a robust digital ecosystem connecting healthcare stakeholders nationwide to enable seamless service delivery. In September 2025 alone, 7.5 lakh ABHA cards were generated in the UT.

Under the guidance of Secretary Health and Medical Education, Syed Abid Rasheed Shah, and ABDM Mission Director Anant Dwivedi, J&K has achieved 100% registration of public health professionals, public hospitals, and private health facilities.

Under the“Scan & Share” service, J&K ranks among the top four states nationally, recording 82,87,701 scans and shares for OPD-based token generation. Patients can now book OPD slots from home by scanning a QR code via the ABHA app or abdmjk , generating tokens in advance to minimize hospital queues.
