In terms of tech, yeah, it's nothing special. But imagine having something like this in the US. Imagine being able to see which goods and services you received, how much you were charged per line item, what was and was not covered by insurance, and having the ability to interact with the various entities directly.

Again, from the tech side, you could do it with some basic Spring Boot shit, but actually getting the manpower and various organizations to integrate into a such a system is genuinely impressive. If the US had such a system, it would likely become a driving force in fixing the healthcare system... hence why it will never happen. The impressive part is the government backing and incentivization of private organizations to integrate into it.

It's not an impressive tech solution. It is an impressive political and organizational solution.

But fuck Modi for other reasons
