HFR on UHI
The HFR is the national register of health facilities: hospitals, clinics, labs, imaging centres and pharmacies. On UHI it names the place behind a listing.
Where it appears
| Field | Service | Required |
|---|---|---|
catalog.providers[].fulfillments[].tags["@abdm/gov.in/hfr_id"] | AMRIT pharmacy, one tag per store | Listed in the field reference |
catalog.providers[].fulfillments[].agent.tags | Physical consultation, as /hfr_id beside the practitioner tags | No |
AMRIT pharmacy is the only UHI service in this portal whose catalogue carries the facility identifier as a field of its own. It is one of three things that service adds over the others.
What the document does not fill in
The value appears as the placeholder <HFR_ID>, with no filled example published. The AMRIT page
records the same gap for the store hours and the contact block. Treat the field's format as
whatever the HFR itself issues, and confirm it against a real store entry before you rely on it.
Where the ID comes from
Not from UHI. A facility is enrolled in the HFR through M4 on HIE-CM, and the create call there needs a professional token from an HPR ID with facility manager rights. UHI quotes the result.
