    Harsh Vardhan pointed out that the new version of IHIP will house the data entry and management for India’s disease surveillance program

    Union Minister of Health and Family Welfare Dr. Harsh Vardhan virtually launched the Integrated Health Information Platform (IHIP) here on Monday.

    Expressing his enthusiasm at the brave, futuristic, and pertinent amalgamation of healthcare and technology, Dr. Harsh Vardhan stated that “This day shall be written in Golden Letters as a day that marks a milestone in the history of disease surveillance. We have started a new chapter in India’s public health trajectory. India is the first country in the world to adopt such an advanced disease surveillance system.” He pointed out that the new version of IHIP will house the data entry and management for India’s disease surveillance program.

    “In addition to tracking 33 diseases now as compared to the earlier 18 diseases, it shall ensure near-real-time data in digital mode, having done away with the paper-mode of working,” the health minister said.
    Terming this as the world’s biggest online disease surveillance platform, he stated that it is in sync with the National Digital Health Mission and fully compatible with the other digital information systems presently being used in India.

    देश में 'IDSP module of Integrated Health Information Platform' के शुभारंभ के अवसर पर पत्रकारों से बात करते हुए मैंने कहा कि इसके शुरू हो जाने से आने वाले समय में किसी भी बीमारी के फै़लने के बारे में हमें समय पर जानकारी उपलब्ध हो जाएगी और हम त्वरित ज़रूरी क़दम उठा सकेंगे। pic.twitter.com/yNvciknULM

    “It will provide analyzed reports on mobile or other electronic devices. In addition, outbreak investigation activities can be initiated and monitored electronically. It can easily be integrated with another ongoing surveillance program, while having the feature of addition of special surveillance modules,”

    Dr. Harsh Vardhan stated that such an advanced digital platform for scouting the earliest signs of disease spread in the smallest of villages and blocks in the country will immensely help in nipping in the bud any potential outbreak or epidemic. He applauded the hard work and commitment of all the grassroots and frontline healthcare workers who have toiled the whole of last year during the COVID pandemic
