About Digital Health Incentive Scheme (DHIS)

DHIS is paid on usage. It is not a grant, and it is not investment. NHA pays incentives on eligible, KYC-verified, ABHA-linked digital health-record transactions and on consent-based record-sharing transactions, above 100 transactions a month. Health facilities and Digital Solution Companies are separate recipients with different rates.

What you get

  • Incentive payments on eligible transactions once your software is live on ABDM.
  • The notice in force at the time of writing covers April to September 2026 and counts only KYC-verified, ABHA-linked health records and consent-based sharing. The scheme page does not say what applies after that, so check it for current terms.

Who can apply

  • All health facilities: clinics, nursing homes and hospitals.
  • Laboratory and radiology diagnostic centres and pharmacies.
  • Companies that provide ABDM-enabled digital solutions (Digital Solution Companies).

How to apply: as a Digital Solution Company, register on the ABDM Sandbox, integrate and go live with a health facility's ABDM-enabled software, register for DHIS from your sandbox profile, then claim the incentive from the same profile. Questions go to abdm.incentive@nha.gov.in.
