- For e-monitoring system and strengthening citizen services
Bhopal: At a prestigious ceremony held at the India Habitat Centre in New Delhi, the Skoch Foundation honored Sanjay Mishra, Additional Secretary, Department of AYUSH, with the prestigious Skoch Award for the department’s outstanding initiatives. This honor is a national recognition of the department’s efforts, particularly in developing the e-monitoring system and strengthening citizen services.
= Digital Innovation Initiative
Additional Secretary, AYUSH, Sanjay Mishra, stated that the department conceptualized and implemented an e-monitoring system to enhance the quality and transparency of services. This system enabled regular monitoring of hospital activities across the state, real-time data collection and analysis, and continuous monitoring of service delivery. This not only increased administrative efficiency but also ensured timely and effective healthcare services were provided to citizens in hospitals.
= Historic Increase in OPD Numbers
As a result of this digital monitoring system and citizen-centric reforms initiated under the leadership of Additional Secretary, AYUSH, Mishra, OPD numbers at AYUSH hospitals across the state increased from 8 lakh per month to 22 lakh per month in just one year. This growth is proof that with strong management and proper use of technology, even traditional medical practices can be highly relevant and effective in modern times.
