India upgrades maternal, child health platform

Updated

India's Ministry of Health and Family Welfare has upgraded its maternal and child health platform to improve digital health monitoring and continuity of care for women and children.

Developed as an upgraded version of the existing Reproductive and Child Health portal, it creates longitudinal digital health records, capturing key services delivered across antenatal care, delivery preparation, delivery, postnatal care, newborn care, home-based newborn and young child care, and family planning.

It now also incorporates automated alerts for high-risk pregnancies, due-list generation, and real-time dashboards, which the ministry said all support timely follow-up and supervisory review.

JANANI supports integration with national platforms such as U-WIN and POSHAN, facilitating data exchange and coordination across maternal health, immunisation, nutrition, and child health programmes.
