Connect your healthtech products and customers to India’s digital health ecosystem without the complexity, cost and effort of building ABDM infrastructure from scratch.

India’s Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission (ABDM) is transforming the country’s healthcare landscape by establishing a common digital infrastructure for interoperable health records and connected healthcare services.

For healthtech companies, ABDM integration is increasingly becoming a business necessity. Whether you develop Hospital Information Management Systems (HIMS), Electronic Medical Records (EMR), Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS), pharmacy software or other healthcare applications, enabling ABDM connectivity can open up new opportunities and help your customers participate in India’s growing digital health ecosystem.

However, ABDM integration comes with its own set of challenges. Understanding the technical specifications, implementing the required APIs, handling security and consent workflows, completing integration testing and navigating the certification process can consume considerable development resources.

What if you could offer ABDM connectivity to your customers without having to build and maintain the entire ABDM infrastructure yourself?

That’s precisely what we set out to achieve with ABDM.Network.

Healthelife Achieves ABDM Certification for ABDM.Network

We are pleased to announce that Healthelife has successfully completed ABDM certification for its ABDM connector, ABDM.Network, covering all three milestones – M1, M2 and M3.

We have also successfully completed Functional Testing (FT) and the Web Application Security Assessment (WASA), achieving this in record time.

This milestone represents an important step in our journey towards simplifying ABDM adoption for the healthtech industry.

More than two years of experience powering ABDM integrations

Our journey with ABDM connectivity began well before this certification.

For more than two years, we have been providing ABDM Connect, our ABDM integration bridge, to other healthtech product companies. Multiple companies have already successfully certified their healthtech solutions using our integration bridge.

Our experience working with different healthcare applications, integration scenarios and certification requirements has given us a practical understanding of the challenges healthtech developers face when integrating with ABDM.

We subsequently decided to complete certification for our own connector. Since ABDM certification requires an end-user application, we developed a minimal healthtech solution leveraging our EHR.Network backend and ABDM Connect. This enabled us to complete the required certification process and demonstrate our connector’s capabilities.

With this achievement, we are now expanding our offerings under the ABDM.Network umbrella, making our ABDM infrastructure available to healthtech companies as cloud-hosted services.

ABDM.Network: Everything You Need for ABDM Integration

ABDM.Network brings together a set of cloud-hosted services designed to help healthtech companies integrate with ABDM quickly and economically.

Instead of developing and maintaining multiple components independently, you can leverage our ready-to-use infrastructure.

1. Hosted ABDM Connector – ABDM Connectivity Without the Infrastructure Overhead

Building an ABDM connector requires significant development effort. Your team needs to implement the required APIs, manage authentication, handle consent workflows, maintain connectivity and keep the integration aligned with evolving ABDM specifications.

With the ABDM.Network Hosted ABDM Connector, you can avoid building and maintaining this infrastructure yourself.

Our cloud-hosted connector provides the ABDM connectivity layer for your healthcare application.

Key benefits:

• Get your application connected to ABDM without developing your own connector.
• Avoid the effort and cost of independently implementing and maintaining the ABDM integration infrastructure.
• Reduce the time required to onboard your healthcare applications and customers.
• Leverage a connector that has completed M1, M2 and M3 certification, along with FT and WASA.
• Focus your development resources on your core healthcare product rather than ABDM integration infrastructure.

Whether you are a HIMS vendor onboarding multiple hospitals or a healthcare technology company integrating ABDM into an existing product, the hosted connector offers a simpler path to ABDM connectivity.

2. ABDM.Network Middleware – Bringing Offline Healthcare Systems into the Digital Health Ecosystem

Not every healthcare application is designed to work with cloud-based infrastructure. Many hospitals and healthcare providers continue to operate on-premises systems, often with limited internet connectivity or restrictions on exposing their internal databases and applications.

For these organisations, direct ABDM integration can be particularly challenging.

ABDM.Network Middleware addresses this challenge by providing a cloud-hosted ABDM data repository.

It acts as an intermediary between your existing healthcare application and the ABDM ecosystem.

Your application can exchange the necessary healthcare data with the cloud-hosted middleware, while ABDM-related data management and integration workflows are handled through the hosted infrastructure.

Key benefits:

• Enable ABDM integration for existing offline and on-premises healthcare applications.
• Avoid sharing data with third party solutions by hosting the middleware yourself
• Avoid extensive modifications to legacy applications.
• Use a cloud-hosted data repository for ABDM-related data exchange.
• Reduce the infrastructure and maintenance burden on your customers.
• Extend ABDM connectivity to healthcare providers who cannot readily migrate their existing systems to the cloud.

This makes it possible for healthtech vendors to extend ABDM capabilities to a much wider customer base without undertaking major architectural changes to their existing products.

3. Terminology Lookup – Simplifying ABDM-Compliant Clinical Data

Healthcare interoperability is not just about exchanging data. It is also about ensuring that clinical information is represented using standardised terminologies and codes.

ABDM specifications require healthcare applications to use standard coding systems for relevant clinical data. Implementing and maintaining terminology services can be another significant development challenge.

ABDM.Network Terminology Lookup provides a SaaS-based terminology service that healthcare applications can integrate with through APIs.

Our terminology service includes:

• SNOMED CT: Standardised clinical terminology for representing clinical concepts, diagnoses, procedures and other healthcare information.
• LOINC: Standardised codes for laboratory observations, measurements and clinical investigations.
• Indian Drug Codes: Drug coding support for standardised medication representation.

Key benefits:

• Integrate standardised healthcare terminology into your applications.
• Simplify clinical data coding in line with ABDM requirements.
• Avoid the effort of independently implementing and maintaining terminology services.
• Improve consistency and interoperability across healthcare applications.
• Access terminology lookup capabilities through cloud-hosted APIs.

Instead of building your own terminology infrastructure, you can integrate with our ready-to-use terminology service.
