What is ABHA and why update your mobile number?

The Ayushman Bharat Health Account (ABHA) is a unique health ID introduced by the Government of India under the Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission (ABDM). It serves as a single repository for all your health-related information, including medical records, prescriptions, and diagnostic reports. By linking your health data to your ABHA ID, you can access and share your records digitally with healthcare providers, ensuring better coordination of care.

Updating your mobile number in ABHA is essential for several reasons:

• OTP-based authentication: Your registered mobile number is required for logging in, updating details, and verifying changes.
• Notifications and updates: Important health-related alerts and notifications are sent to your registered number.
• Security: An updated mobile number ensures that only you can access your sensitive health records.

If you are a Bajaj Finserv customer, keeping your contact details updated in ABHA is even more critical, as it ensures smooth integration with the services you avail through Bajaj Finserv.
