Practice questions
Q1Consider the following statements about the Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission: 1. It uses a federated architecture in which health records remain with the provider or repository that created them. 2. It stores every citizen's health records in a single government-controlled central database. 3. Records move through consent-based links using the Health Information Exchange and Consent Manager. Which of the statements given above are correct?
Statements 1 and 3 are correct. ABDM follows a federated, decentralised model: health records stay with the provider or repository that created them, and the Health Information Exchange and Consent Manager enables explicit, informed and granular consent-based sharing. Statement 2 is incorrect because the government does not collect all records in one central database.
Q2Match the ABDM building block in List I with its function in List II: 1. Health Facility Registry; 2. Healthcare Professionals Registry; 3. Health Information Exchange and Consent Manager; 4. Unified Health Interface. a. Open-network discovery and delivery of health services; b. Consent layer for granular record sharing; c. Registry of hospitals, clinics, laboratories and pharmacies; d. Registry of doctors and health workers. Select the correct code.
The Health Facility Registry lists public and private care facilities, while the Healthcare Professionals Registry lists doctors and health workers. The Health Information Exchange and Consent Manager supplies the explicit, informed and granular consent layer. The Unified Health Interface supports open-network discovery and delivery of services such as appointments and teleconsultation.
Q3How many digits are in the voluntary, randomly generated Ayushman Bharat Health Account number used to link a citizen's health records with consent?
The Ayushman Bharat Health Account number is a randomly generated 14-digit, voluntary digital health identity. It allows records from different healthcare providers to be linked, accessed and shared only with the citizen's consent. A mobile number or Aadhaar can assist registration, but neither changes the 14-digit account format.
Q4Which institution implements the Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission as a Central Sector Scheme under the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare?
The Union Cabinet approved ABDM as a Central Sector Scheme of the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare and explicitly named the National Health Authority as its implementing agency. ABDM builds interoperable digital-health infrastructure; it is not administered as an insurance benefit by an insurance regulator.
Q5Arrange the following milestones in chronological order: 1. National Digital Health Mission pilot announced; 2. Nationwide rollout of Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission launched; 3. Union Cabinet approved the mission as a Central Sector Scheme; 4. Digital Health Incentive Scheme became effective. Select the correct sequence.
The pilot was announced first on 15 August 2020. The nationwide rollout followed on 27 September 2021. The Union Cabinet then approved ABDM as a Central Sector Scheme on 26 February 2022, and the Digital Health Incentive Scheme became effective on 1 January 2023. Therefore, the correct sequence is 1-2-3-4.
