Vijayawada: The AP Medical, Health and Family Welfare Department has achieved remarkable success by securing five prestigious National Level Awards at Arogya Manthan-2023, a distinguished event held at Vigyan Bhavan, Maulana Azad Rd, Rajpath Area in New Delhi.

This momentous occasion coincided with the 5th anniversary of the Ayushman Bharat Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (AB PM-JAY) and the 2nd anniversary of the Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission (ABDM). T

The achievements not only stand out in terms of sheer numbers but also in the percentage of the population covered, setting a benchmark for the entire nation,” he added.

Meanwhile, the state got first place for linking the highest number of health records to ABDM and the second and third places respectively for districts that linked the highest number of health records to ABDM in the entire country (Visakhapatnam and Eluru).
