That patients or their caretakers can get the card easily from the facilitation centres across AIIMS, New Delhi and thereafter use it for payment at various counters. Funds can now be transferred easily and swiftly from across the country by anyone in case of any urgent payment related requirement, for the patient being attended at AIIMS, New Delhi. The card once issued will be valid for a period of five years. All transactions done using this card are linked to the E-Hospital functional at AIIMS.
