NEW DELHI, Sep 9 (PTI): There is a need to integrate the Health Management Information System (HMIS) portal with the Reproductive and Child Health (RCH) portal and other portals of the health ministry to ensure that the data is uploaded timely and analysed carefully, Union Health Secretary Apurva Chandra said On Monday.

Chandra made the remarks as he released “Health Dynamics of India (Infrastructure and Human Resources) 2022-23”, an annual publication formerly known as “Rural Health Statistics”, here. The document has been published since 1992.

Highlighting the document as a source of reliable and authentic information on various aspects of the National Health Mission (NHM), Chandra said, “The annual publication is a valuable document furnishing much-needed information on manpower and infrastructure within the NHM, helpful in policy making, improving processes and problem solving.”
