The Ayushman Bharat Health Account (ABHA) scheme is being implemented by the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC), making it mandatory for private practitioners in the city to register their patients on the ABHA website. This will help create a digital database of patients' health records on the centralised server. However, the Indian Medical Association (IMA) has expressed concerns about data security.

The BMC has decided to implement this initiative as a pilot project in 11 administrative wards. According to a BMC official, private medical practitioners and facilities will be registered under ABHA, while health professionals and facilities will be registered under the Health Care Professionals Registry (HPR) and Health Facility Registry (HFR), respectively.
