AyushEHR Resort has become the first EHR software for Ayurveda in this NRCeS’s updated list of standards compliant EHR solutions.

After the release of the Indian EHR standards, the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare(MoHFW) established a centre of excellence known as National Resource Centre for EHR Standards (NRCeS). This centre is fully owned and funded by the government. It is responsible to boost the adoption of EHR and also to maintain standardization of EHR directives across the nation. Consequently, NRCeS maintains an updated list of standards compliant EHRs from India to spread awareness among healthcare providers. The intent of this list is to help them identify robust EHR software for their use.

This, we feel, is a recognition of our more than 3 years of hard work. It is sure to help for the Ayurveda community in their path to the adoption of modern technology. Thus, in choosing AyushEHR, Ayurveda practitoners can now be confident of getting the best in EHR technology.

Why is an an Ayurveda focused EHR great news for traditional medicine?

Such initiatives helps build a narrative that Ayurveda is on a trajectory of modernization and is picking up momentum once more. Through these, the technology advantage of modern medicine is being challenged by the traditional practices, which are eager to stand shoulder to shoulder with it.

Increasingly such government programs and initiatives are empowering traditional healthcare practices with newer technologies like EHR. The great news is, the process that was stagnant for a long time has picked up pace. It is going to spread to the world by not just mere concepts but through validated evidence and published reports.

AyushEHR believes itself to be a mediator that would make Ayurveda available and acceptable to all, just like any other form of medicine and treatment.
