The All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) is a group of premier government medical institutions established to provide advanced healthcare, medical education and research in India. AIIMS hospitals are known for specialist and super-specialist treatment, modern diagnostic facilities, teaching and affordable government healthcare.

Under the Pradhan Mantri Swasthya Suraksha Yojana (PMSSY), several new AIIMS have been established across different states to improve access to high-quality medical care. As of 2026, the Government of India lists 22 newer AIIMS under the PMSSY programme, with different institutions at different stages of development.

Which AIIMS Is Best for Treatment?

There is no single AIIMS that is automatically the best for every medical condition. AIIMS New Delhi has the widest range of highly specialized departments and dedicated specialty centres. The six older PMSSY AIIMS—Bhopal, Bhubaneswar, Jodhpur, Patna, Raipur and Rishikesh—are also fully functional and provide broad tertiary-care services.

For patients, the nearest operational AIIMS with the required department may often be the most practical option. For highly complex cases, patients may need a referral or appointment with a particular specialty.

Final Words

AIIMS hospitals have expanded India’s public healthcare network by bringing advanced medical treatment and medical education to different regions. From AIIMS New Delhi to newer institutes such as AIIMS Bibinagar, Guwahati, Jammu, Rajkot, Nagpur and Mangalagiri, patients can access an increasing range of government healthcare services.

However, departments, OPD schedules, availability of specialists and services can change, especially at newer AIIMS. Therefore, patients should check the official website of the relevant institute before travelling for treatment or an appointment.

The Government of India’s PMSSY website is the most useful source for checking the current development and operational status of the newer AIIMS.
