Samsung, which is India’s largest consumer electronics brand, has partnered with Eka Care. Notably, Eka Care is a leading health tech company. The partnership aims to introduce the “Health Records” feature to the Samsung Health app. This is to help users manage their health more comprehensively.
The Health Records feature allows you to create and access your Ayushman Bharat Health Account (ABHA) directly through the Samsung Health Mobile App. You can also effortlessly manage your health data generated by healthcare providers across India. This eventually helps to transform the way users take charge of their personal health records.
Samsung’s new initiative to empower its users by providing seamless and secure integration with the country’s digital health ecosystem is aligned with the Indian government’s Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission (ABDM) project.

The Health Records feature is the result of a collaborative effort across R&D, UX Design and Consumer Experience teams at Samsung with Eka Care team. With this feature, you can register for an ABHA account within the Samsung Health app with their Aadhaar or mobile phone numbers. Once registered, they gain access to view their medical history, including prescriptions, laboratory results, hospital visits, and more — all securely linked to their unique ABHA IDs.
In addition, during OPD visit at ABDM compliant hospitals and clinics, users can simply scan QR code via the Samsung Health app to obtain a virtual queue token and minimize wait times.
Samsung Health app offers comprehensive health services including medication management, sleep monitoring, mindfulness programs, and irregular heartbeat notifications. All Samsung Health user data on Samsung devices is secured by defense-grade Knox Security Platform.
Indian users can experience the new Health Records feature through Samsung Health’s latest app updates. You can get the app on Samsung Galaxy store and Google Play store.
