ABDM. As on 31.07.2026, a total of 8.60 lakh and 17.93 lakh ABHA have been created in
the Mahisagar & Dahod districts respectively falling under the Dahod Parliamentary
Constituency inthe State of Gujarat.

63,917 admissions in Dahod district, constituting 47.7 % of the total admissions and

financial burden associated with hospitalization and provided protection against catastrophic
healthexpenditure.
