Job description
The Senior Analyst will support the State ABDM Office in widening their engagement with healthcare professionals by leveraging various existing platforms such as medical conferences, digital health events, and such others and deepen the engagement with the healthcare professionals through implementation of microsites In the state. This approach is predicated on regular in-person engagement with healthcare professionals in a limited geography. The objective is to introduce ABDM (and more broadly, the value proposition of digitization) to healthcare professionals and facilitate their journeys to ABDM-enabled healthcare delivery. The milestones in this journey include:
- registering healthcare professionals onto the Healthcare Professionals Registry (HPR),
- signing the clinics / hospitals they work at on to the Health Facilities Registry (HFR),
- adopting ABDM-enabled Health Management Information Systems (HMIS) that suit their needs, and
- using the functionalities of the ABDM-enabled HMIS in care delivery to their patients
The microsite approach to adoption is important for the ABDM ecosystem in two main ways:
- By focusing on a specific geography, and engaging deeply with an ecosystem of providers, it helps catalyse demand for ABDM through a flywheel effect. By developing a core of early adopters, it aims to jump start word-of-mouth and demonstrative effects that will drive wider adoption.
- As sites for learning and experimentation, microsites deepen the ABDM ecosystem s understanding of attitudes, incentives and circumstances that can drive or hinder adoption of ABDM, thereby helping to identify new use cases and sharpen its value proposition.
