These systems include the necessary hardware and software infrastructure to support real-time data entry, service tracking, and reporting. Key digital platforms such as the Ayushman Arogya Mandir Portal, Health Management Information System (HMIS), e-Sanjeevani, National Programme for Prevention and Control of Non-Communicable Diseases (NP-NCD) Portal, and Reproductive and Child Health (RCH) Portal are utilized to capture various health service parameters. This digital ecosystem enables seamless monitoring, evaluation, and evidence-based planning at the facility, block, district, state, and national levels, thereby strengthening accountability and enhancing the overall efficiency of primary healthcare delivery.
