Health Bank of India (HBI)

About Us

Health Bank of India (HBI) is a national-level digital healthcare initiative aimed at creating a secure, unified, and citizen-centric health data ecosystem for India. Developed in alignment with the objectives of the Government of India and national digital health programs, HBI enables the systematic creation, storage, and management of verified health records through a secure and consent-based digital framework.

The platform is designed to improve healthcare accessibility, efficiency, and transparency while supporting data-driven policy formulation and public health planning across the country.

• India’s healthcare system generates vast amounts of medical data every day; however, this data remains fragmented across multiple institutions, formats, and regions. The absence of a unified health record system leads to duplication of medical tests, delayed treatment, higher costs, and inefficiencies in public health management.

• Health Bank of India addresses this challenge by establishing a standardized digital health repository that ensures continuity of care, improves clinical outcomes, and strengthens healthcare governance nationwide.
