Two ways to run it, one system
Where the software runs is a decision about your network and your policy, not about what the software can do. TechMediz is deployed either in the cloud or on a server inside the hospital, and the modules, the record and the screens are identical.
In the cloud, the hospital reaches its data from anywhere with role-based access — which is what a group with more than one site, or a director who is not on the premises, is usually asking for. On a local server, the database sits on hardware the hospital owns and the system keeps working when the line to the outside world does not.
Both are offered by Mescope Solutions and both are installed by the same team that supports them afterwards.
Role-based access
Reception, doctors, nursing, laboratory, pharmacy, stores and accounts each work in the part of the record their job touches. That is not a cloud feature bolted on — it is how the system is organised, so it behaves the same on a server in your own building.
What a paperless hospital actually replaces
“Paperless” is easy to claim and hard to mean. In practice it is a list of specific pieces of paper that stop being the record:
- The OP chit, issued on screen instead of printed
- Prescriptions, written into the record and read at the pharmacy counter
- Laboratory and radiology requisitions, raised from the ward
- Reports, entered against the sample rather than typed twice
- Discharge summaries, with ICD-10 codes carried through
- Patient files, tracked by barcode from issue to movement to return
Everything still prints when someone needs it on paper. What changes is which copy is authoritative. The modules behind all of this are on the hospital management software page.
