The Nagaland Health Protection Society (NHPS), in partnership with Reliance General Insurance Company Limited (RGICL), on December 16 announced the official launch of IndusInd Health Mitra (IHM), a mobile- and web-based digital health consultation platform. The service will be available free of cost for an initial period of three months to all eligible beneficiaries under Ayushman Bharat Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (AB PM-JAY) and Chief Minister Health Insurance Scheme (CMHIS) in Nagaland.

The launch of IHM marks a significant step towards strengthening access to quality healthcare across the state, particularly for communities residing in remote and hard-to-reach areas. Through the platform, beneficiaries can consult qualified doctors and specialists from across India via secure video and audio consultation, eliminating the need for travel or physical hospital visits for routine medical advice.

IndusInd Health Mitra has been designed to complement existing healthcare services by providing timely medical guidance, follow-up consultations, and second opinions. The initiative aims to promote early diagnosis, facilitate prompt medical attention, and help reduce avoidable hospital admissions, thereby improving overall health outcomes for beneficiaries.
