Digital health profile for all on cards in Telangana: IT Minister Sridhar Babu

The Telangana government plans to create digital health profile of all the people in the State, according to Minister for IT and Industries D. Sridhar Babu.

The Minister, who was inaugurating a 5 lakh sq.ft. global innovation centre of Providence India here on Monday, counted the proposed project among the many ideas the new government has for the State. “We are trying to create solid healthcare systems... an effective healthcare profile for every individual of Telangana [that] will help doctors and the patients,” he said, envisaging the project, which will cover the four-crore population of the State and take two years to complete.

Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy and Minister for Health Damodar Rajanarasimha are keen on health profiling of the people, he said, seeking to highlight the role of disruptive technology in healthcare delivery.
