In a significant leap towards modernizing healthcare, Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta unveiled the expanded Health Information Management System (HIMS) on Thursday, streamlining appointment processes by enabling online bookings. The initiative aims at eliminating long queues and enhancing the efficiency of public healthcare services.
