What Anya Segen built

Anya Segen produced the systems communication explaining the repository: what it collects, who it serves and why an institutional audience should participate.

The programme, in numbers

What the evidence shows

Reach is the start. This is the rest.

01Repository data now prefills the Health Facility Registry under Ayushman Bharat, so fields an administrator would otherwise retype arrive already filled.
02Saturation varies sharply by state, from Karnataka at 100% verified against the repository to Uttar Pradesh at about a third, which is precisely the gap participation communication exists to close.

From the work

On the ground.

Institutional communication is its own discipline. The audience is not a household but an administrator deciding whether to spend staff time on a survey, and the job of the film is to make a data exercise feel like infrastructure rather than paperwork.
