The objective of this initiative is not to automate the healing process but to create an "Augmented

Physician" - one who uses technological insights to supplement human judgment. By equipping
doctors with foundational and applied knowledge of AI, NBEMS is facilitating a shift from reactive

medicine to a more proactive and preventive approach.

This alignment with the "Viksit Arogya Bharat" vision ensures that the Indian medical fraternity is

not just a consumer of global technology but a leader in its responsible implementation. Driven by a

commitment to its mission and the goal of amplifying its reach, NBEMS has introduced this initiative
to Indian healthcare professionals entirely free of charge.

A Historic Milestone: The Guinness World Record

One of the most remarkable indices of the
programme's success is its unprecedented

scale. On February 20, 2026, the initiative

achieved a global academic milestone by
setting a Guinness World Record™ for the

"Most viewers of an Artificial Intelligence in
Healthcare lesson live stream on YouTube".

The module, which focused on the practical
applications of AI in healthcare, witnessed a

peak concurrent viewership of 17,999 doctors.
This feat was officially recognized on

February 25, 2026, following a thorough

adjudication by a team led by
Shri Swapnil Dangarikar from

Guinness World Records. Dr.

Abhijat Sheth, President of
NBEMS, noted that this

recognition is a testimony to
India's leadership in digital

innovation and the enthusiastic
readiness of the medical community to embrace emerging technologies.
