What is ABHA?

ABHA stands for Ayushman Bharat Health Account.

ABHA address is used to enable the sharing of medical records with the concerned doctors or healthcare facilities. ABHA number is a 16-digit number that gives a unique identity to your card and the consent pin is used when you want to grant access to your health records folder to someone.
