It is a health savings account launched under the Ayushman Bharat Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (AB-PMJAY). It is designed to provide financial assistance to the economically weaker sections (EWSs) for their healthcare needs. Abha ID is a unique 14-digit identification number linked to the citizen’s Aadhaar or mobile number. It helps them store and access all information digitally. This includes their health history, consultation details, medical records and prescriptions.
