A manual information management system is bad; An inconsistent electronic information management system is worse!


Today, there is reimbursement arrangement prevalent in healthcare industry. Its reasons are rooted in the economic setup and cultural background of the societies. Stakeholders of low scale health care providers do not intend to invest in effective though expensive for them: information management system. The reason is there is little expectation of incentive from the effective information management system, unless it contributes in generating revenue or immediate lucrative outcomes.
One of the reasons of poor information management system in healthcare industry attributes to not ‘non-existent- information system’ but a highly inconsistent and redundant information management system. In a survey it has been known that in most of the complaints are laid on the poor technological information management system, which is in severe need of re-engineering.
Healthcare providers need to assure few condition before setting up an emr software system:
  • ·         It is the users of the technology who should be asked about the desirable technology, not just the clinicians, nor alone the patients and staff, but complete user guide from all the stakeholders.
  • Cloudpital provides effective emr software system, which is designed to meet the demands of different stakeholders, from e-clinic to staff, doctors and the organization itself can employ and effectively manage the regular information.
  • ·         The electronic medical record system should be having an integrated application so it can be compatible with other systems. It should be integrated with every department instead of inefficient data inventory of radiology and cardiology centrally and redundant.
  • ·         The records are patient based or transaction based, i.e. one patient exited from one department get test from another health department within an organization, in this way, the billing policy may produce inefficient hemorrhage of money and loss on the part of organization. For users it may become a tiring strenuous task to open and close several records of one entity from different departments.
  • The cloudpital gives the electronic medical records with enhanced billing policies and administration. The scheduling and robust information keeping system of patients with data mobility across departments within the organizations gives the most cost-effective solution for the healthcare industry.
  • The projected EMR (electronic medical record system) demands excessive documentation, if so then this leaves the organizations with a burden of excessive workforce i.e. assistants and technical staff.  
  • The technology should lead to paper and administration reduction but contrary to the fact, quantitative survey shows that doctors get more administrative work with the emr software.
  • The diagnostic data, previous health record and current lab results, along with the information of patients’ vital, all these information collectively produce tons of data which need a highly quick analytic inventory, but in poor electronic medical records, poor field storage and redundancies leads to worst anomalies.
Cloudpital gives user friendly interface and interactive platform to provide an easy access to all stakeholders. The organizations should not compensate their needs with the outdated and inconsistent data software management systems, instead should employ hospital software to endure effective solutions in limited resources.

Get the Healthcare Industry Out of Stone-age !

Most of the developing countries face economic and organizational barriers in healthcare industry, which is why despite the revolutionized IT industry there seems little betterment in the system. Any hospital regardless of its status, requires an efficient amount of management for its accounts, administration and information management related to different sectors. The present condition of healthcare industry regarding its information management and efficacy in terms of information storing is a forced dilemma that despite the right technology, it still is inevitable to overthrow the manual paper record system.

Major reasons for poor record system:
There are many factors which lead to this prevalent poor standard of information management system in healthcare industry:
·         The overall economic, business and healthcare industry have atomistic structure, i.e. based on small business groups. This weak status of stake holders in health care industry is the reason of the poor record keeping system.
·         Healthcare staff’s technical incompetence.
·         Unreliable local commercial healthcare management systems.
·         Paper-based storage of record (patients, operations, employees, doctors and organizations).
·         The manual inter-operability in between different facilities of hospitals has led to critical reception of technological information system.
·         The general misconception that the electronic medical record system are costy and difficult to employ.
·         The lack of educated workforce and training of physicians, no knowledge of IT and its administration can make it difficult to address the EMR in hospitals.

Electronic Health Record: A cure for Hospitals
It’s been more than fifty decades since the electronic medical record (EMRs) were introduced. EMR system in healthcare industry was triggered by internet. There have been certain cultural predilections that have hurdled the efficient use of EMR in healthcare industry:
All these structural and abstract barriers need to be overthrown since only the efficient use of EMR can assure a progressive healthcare industry. A reliable and working EMR in hospitals doesn’t just imply a better healthcare facility, its positive impact is far reaching, to the patients, to the stake holders and to the governance itself.

Cloudpital:
Cloudpital has given such a software technology which can cover all the needs of a conventional working hospital system. Its basic features include to record all information systems, relative to patients, laboratory tests, operations, inventory and pharmaceutical details, workforce, physicians, diagnostics, online appointment and medical system, billing and facilities records, cafeteria information system and payroll etc. Cloudpital provides an efficient electronic medical record system (EMR) where any patient history can be recorded and stored without any subjection to loss.

This is the time when the scientific society is screaming for the efficient healthcare industry, which is in dire need of betterment. It is the time to grow out of stone-aged myths and employ cost-effective solutions provided by electronic medical record system for management of information. Cloudpital doesn’t confine to mere record management, it is a complete suite to manage the radiology information, laboratory information, ambulance services information, healthcare analytics, blood bank management, ward management, HR payroll management, laundry and disposal of biomedical waste’s management.

Get better hospital information management system, give even better healthcare services!


Since the considerable increase in the human population has been analyzed, the basic needs have gained momentum. This flux in needs and resources has also uplifted a sudden upheaval in some systems of society, such as hospitals. The information system and its management in hospitals is least robust, where reality demands a felicitous information system for healthcare industry but administration doesn’t realize the significance of electronic medical record system.
Cloudpital provides a highly effective system in the form of electronic medical record to healthcare industry, to be implemented in hospitals. The information system of all the departments, from accounts to payroll, machinery and personnel, only an efficient information system can manage this huge amount of information.

A need for efficient information management system!

  • The manual information system is highly susceptible to be lost and corruption, which can leave the patients, doctors as well as the organization which runs itself into a pledging loss.
  • When everything has been revolutionized by technology then why not the institutes which serve society on large scale. Technology causes cost, resources, staff and system reduction, it doesn’t give one logical reason to not to be implemented in large scale working organizations, where a range of departments are work together yet disconnected.
  • The reasoning for implementation of information management system for hospital is itself the plea to employ technology in this system where it is highly needed.

CloudPital provides an even better and efficient electronic medical system information management system on the cloud-based platform. It can simplify the complex medical data administration and its regulation, with all automated information of patient’s history to the doctor’s schedules. It doesn’t provide a conventional database prone to redundancy but a cloud-based platform to suffice all the data inventory and processing, along with its aesthetic design. If the hospital needs a clinical, administrative or accounts’ management, or if it needs the management of data and its optimization, then the hospital information management system is the right solution.

It is not just the solution for the organization itself to administer its electronic medical record, it is an assistance for the medical workers as well as for the patients to access the regular clinic information and make their appointment from their cellphones.
