What is U-WIN?

U-WIN, the programme to digitise India’s Universal Immunisation Programme (UIP) was launched in two districts of each state and Union Territory. The programme was launched in a pilot mode.

One of the most important motive of this programme is make things easier like carrying vaccination cards of children and pregnant women, and keeping a tab on the next jab and other such hassles.

Significance of U-WIN

After the registration on the U-WIN platform, it will help to keep the record of every pregnant woman, her vaccination, her delivery outcome, and register details of every newborn delivery, and administer birth doses and all vaccination events thereafter.

Also, the U-WIN platform, will be one of the single source of information which will be used for updating vaccination status,immunisation services, delivery outcome, planning of RI sessions and reports like antigen-wise coverage and several others.

The registrations of all pregnant women and newborns for individualised tracking for vaccination, reminders for upcoming doses and follow-up of dropouts will also be registered digitally.

This will help the healthcare workers and programme managers to generate real-time data of routine immunisation sessions and vaccination coverage for better planning and vaccine distribution.

Digitisation of Immunisation:

The card of pregnant women and children, vaccine details and immunisation will be linked to ABHA ID (Ayushman Bharat Health Account) will be generated and all states and districts can access a common database and can easily track and vaccinate beneficiaries. Apart from this, the platform citizens can also check nearby ongoing routine immunisation sessions, and book appointments.

All states and UTs have been sensitised on U-WIN functionalities and objectives for the pilot in 65 districts and staff and healthcare workers have been trained on all modules of U-WIN. Once the whole immunisation programme is digitised, beneficiaries will get certificates on the spot and they can also download them if they want to. These certificates will be stored in digi-lockers.
