Set in natural beauty and close to the sacred Ganges, All India Institute of Medical Sciences Rishikesh was strategically located to address regional imbalances in healthcare services, research, and training. It was established under the Pradhan Mantri Swasthya Suraksha Yojna’s first phase and supported to be an autonomous body by the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (Amendment) Bill, 2012. The first batch of 50 MBBS and BSc Nursing students enrolled in 2012 while outpatient and inpatient services started in mid-2013.

Since its inception AIIMS Rishikesh has evolutionized into an institute of national importance, with a current annual enrollment of 125 MBBS, 100 BSc Nursing, 25 MSc Nursing, 450  MD/MS/MDS, MCh(6 years) , 178 DM/MCH, 37 PDCC,  15 MPH, 13 Medical MSc, and 87 Ph.D students.  AIIMS Rishikesh now runs numerous medical & allied courses. These activities are mentored by more than 200 faculty members. Along with a growing footfall in routine outpatient clinics, 91 specialized clinics have been added. Similarly, from a 200 bedded inpatient facility in 2013, it has now 960 bed capacity. 24x7x365 Emergency services have now bifurcated into separate Trauma Surgery and Emergency Medicine services. Official work is tracked through the e-governance system in a bid to limit the paper-based system.
