Multi-Speciality

Multi-speciality hospital software on one patient record

12 departments, one UHID. TechMediz runs the whole hospital as a single system rather than a set of programs that have to be reconciled.

The problem a multi-speciality hospital actually has

A hospital with several specialities rarely lacks software. It has too much of it — a billing package bought first, something for the laboratory, a separate pharmacy program, and the medical records still on paper. Each one works. Together they disagree, and the staff spend their day reconciling them.

The cost of that is not the licence fees. It is that no one can answer a simple question — what did this patient have, and what did the hospital take today — without three people checking three systems.

One record, 12 departments

TechMediz is built the other way round. Registration issues a UHID, and everything that happens afterwards is attached to it: the out-patient visit, the admission and ward transfer, the theatre booking, the laboratory sample and its result, the scan and its report, the pharmacy issue, the discharge summary with its ICD-10 codes, and the bill.

Because those are modules of one system rather than separate programs, a requisition raised on the ward reaches the laboratory, a ward request reduces store stock, and both land in the day’s collection without being entered again.

Specialities are set up as data — doctors, departments, wards, test lists, report templates. Adding one is configuration, not a new project.

Accreditation and records

Laboratory records and report formats are kept in the shape NABL documentation asks for, and medical records are tracked from issue through movement to return, searchable by ICD code alongside the lab and scan reports — which is the paperwork a multi-speciality hospital is asked to produce. The full clinical set is on the hospital management software page, and the back office on the hospital ERP page.

Multi-speciality hospital software — common questions

Do the departments really share one record?

Yes — that is the design rather than an integration. A patient is registered once and given a Unique Patient Identification Number, and every visit, admission, test, prescription and bill afterwards attaches to that number. There is no synchronising step between departments because there is nothing to synchronise.

How many specialities can it handle?

The system does not count specialities. Doctors, departments, wards, stores and test lists are all set up as data rather than being built in, so adding a speciality is configuration — new doctors, new templates, new tests — not a new installation.

Can each department keep its own way of working?

Within the record, yes. Laboratory and radiology carry their own report templates, the doctor module carries per-doctor prescription templates, the theatre carries its own notes and surgeon mapping, and the store runs its own purchase cycle. What they cannot do is keep their own copy of the patient.

What about the reporting a management team needs?

Because the departments post to one record, management reporting is a read of that record rather than a compilation from several. Daily collection across OP, IP and pharmacy, doctor share, supplier payments and stock position all come from the day's work.
