An ABHA Address is a unique, self-created username (e.g., rahul.sharma@abdm) that functions like an email address for your health data. Healthcare providers (labs, hospitals) use this handle to securely transfer your electronic health records (EHR) into your Personal Health Record (PHR) app with your consent.
