The country’s most prestigious government hospital, AIIMS Delhi, has created a new history in the matter of treatment of patients. Statistics of the last one year show that the number of people coming here for treatment has broken all records till now. Not only the number of patients, but also a significant increase in beds and admissions has been recorded, which tells the story of expansion of health services.
More than 48 lakh patients treated in OPD, figures create new record
According to the latest data of AIIMS Delhi, 48,43,572 patients availed OPD services during the year 2024-25. This number in itself is considered a big achievement. This achievement is also important for the hospital administration because handling patients on such a large scale is a big challenge for any institution.
Increase in IPD also, 3.61 lakh patients admitted
Not only OPD, there has been a tremendous increase in the number of patients admitted and treated. In the year 2024-25, 3,61,236 patients were admitted to the hospital and given treatment. This shows that even in serious cases, people’s trust in AIIMS is continuously increasing.
332 new beds added in two years, structure expanded
If we look at the reports of the last three years, the infrastructure of the hospital has continuously improved. By the year 2024-25, the total number of beds has increased to 3,657. Within two years, 332 new beds were added, which is considered an important step in view of the increasing patient number.
OPD load increased by 13.81 percent in two years
If the year 2022-23 is compared with 2024-25, then 5,87,771 additional patients were treated in OPD. This shows an increase of about 13.81 percent. This level of increase in such a short period of time reflects both the increasing demand for health services and the capacity of the institution.
Nearly 29 percent jump in admitted patients
There has been an even sharper increase in the number of patients admitted and treated. While 2,80,770 patients were admitted to IPD in the year 2022-23, this figure increased to 3,61,236 in 2024-25. That means an increase of 80,466 patients in two years, which is an increase of about 28.65 percent. This increase is believed to be around one third.

Today about 22 AIIMS institutes are operating in different parts of the country. The working style and reliable services of Delhi-based AIIMS have made it a standard institute. People from every corner of the country come here with the hope of treatment. This institution is considered the last resort especially for the economically weaker section.
