SeHAT OPD portal

The Services e-Health Assistance and Tele-consultation (SeHAT) OPD portal was launched recently by Defence Minister Rajnath Singh. This portal provides tele-medicine services to serving armed forces personnel and veterans and their families. It is the collaborative effort of the Department of Military Affairs, Armed Forces Medical Services, Integrated Defence Staff, Centre for Development of Artificial Computing and others.

The pilot version of this portal was launched on August last year. Some 6,500 personnel have benefited from this beta version. It is expected to ease the burden on healthcare sector and improve access to health services in remote areas.
