Kerala launched the MeHEALTH mobile application to improve public access to healthcare information and services. The app was introduced by the state Health Department to help citizens easily locate nearby hospitals, speciality departments, laboratories, blood banks, and pharmacies. It also provides features such as online doctor appointment booking and OP ticket generation, reducing waiting time at hospitals. Users can log in with their mobile number and generate a unique health ID using Aadhaar details. The app also integrates navigation features to guide users to healthcare institutions. This initiative strengthens digital healthcare access and enhances the efficiency of public health services across the state.
