What is ABHA ID and why it is important

The ABHA ID, introduced under the Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission (ABDM), is a 14-digit unique identifier that links your health records digitally. It serves as a bridge between healthcare providers and individuals, ensuring seamless access to medical data while maintaining privacy and security.

Why is ABHA ID important?

2. Enhanced Healthcare Experience: With ABHA ID, you can avoid the hassle of carrying physical documents to hospitals or clinics. It simplifies the process of availing healthcare services.
3. Time and Cost Efficiency: By enabling digital access to your health records, ABHA ID reduces redundant tests and paperwork, saving both time and money.
4. Privacy and Security: Your health data is stored securely and can only be accessed with your consent, ensuring confidentiality.

For individuals who have availed of Bajaj Finserv’s health insurance or financial services, the ABHA ID becomes even more critical. It ensures smooth claims processing and helps you manage your healthcare expenses effectively.
