This notable recognition also marks Aster CMI as the first hospital in Karnataka to be accredited under NABH's new digital standards framework.

Introduced in 2023, the NABH Digital Health Standards are the first of their kind in India, designed to evaluate hospitals based on their digital maturity and the integration of advanced technologies in healthcare.
Digital health innovations such as telemedicine, electronic health records (EHRs), mobile health applications, wearable technology, and artificial intelligence are critical components in transforming healthcare delivery. These technologies enable more effective health management, personalized and efficient care, and improved health outcomes. Aster CMI Hospital has successfully implemented several key digital health initiatives contributing to this accreditation. 
One of the notable advancements is the comprehensive Electronic Medical Records (EMR) system, which ensures secure and accessible patient data management. The Online Quality Management System has also been pivotal, facilitating quality audits, clinical pathway compliance, and real-time dashboard monitoring. Another significant implementation is Aster Insight, a robust feedback mechanism that continuously improves patient services by capturing and analyzing patient experiences. Additionally, Aster CMI’s telemedicine services extend healthcare access to remote and underserved areas, ensuring continuity of care and expanding the hospital’s reach. Apart from this, initiatives like online incident management system, Oracle based inventory management, lab information system, digital payments, remote patient monitoring and more played a key role in getting the accreditation.
Dr. Nitish Shetty, CEO of Aster DM Healthcare, India, expressing his pride in this achievement, said, “We are honored to receive the Platinum certification from NABH, a testament to our unwavering commitment to excellence in healthcare.
