Feature
BuiltAdmission, beds, nursing and discharge — built, and in verification.
Admit a patient to a bed, run their stay, and discharge them: the estate, the bed census, ward tariffs, transfers, the nursing chart and an inpatient bill, all real and in pre-release verification.
Inpatient management covers everything between admitting a patient and discharging them: which bed they are in, what has been charted, what has been charged, and whether pharmacy, laboratory and billing have all finished before the summary is written.
What is built
The core of inpatient care is implemented and in verification. A hospital with wards can run an admission from bed to discharge, and the bill posts as the stay does.
- Admission, transfer and discharge, with a real episode state behind it
- Bed allocation that cannot double-book under concurrent admissions
- The hospital estate: floors, rooms, beds and a resource register
- Ward, room and bed types, with a nightly ward tariff
- Daily bed-charge posting — one line per bed-day, onto one invoice
- A nursing chart: vitals, observations, intake/output and handover notes
- A dedicated Nurse role that charts without the clinician’s other keys
- Ward categories such as NICU, PICU and deluxe room, and nursing chart columns each ward can choose
- Signed daily rounds, with the changes made on each round recorded
- Admission diagnoses and an Rx sheet of medication orders started and stopped
- Clinical events on one timeline, and investigations sent to the laboratory
- A discharge summary written by the doctor, finalized, amended and printed
- Discharge with a summary, freeing the bed and finalizing the bill
What is still to come
The core is built; the depth on top is scheduled scope.
- A drawn, visual bed and ward map (today the bed board is a filterable list)(planned)
- A structured medication administration record (MAR)(planned)
- A discharge summary drafted automatically from the stay(planned)
- A discharge workflow that clears pharmacy, laboratory and billing before the summary(planned)
- Inpatient packages and interim/part billing(planned)
The part we were careful about
Two admissions desks can allocate the same bed at the same moment, and an application-level "is it free?" check loses that race. Bed allocation is a row-locked, serialized transaction, so a bed cannot be double-booked — and occupancy is derived from admissions, never typed in twice.
What this does not do
This is built and in verification ahead of our first release, exactly like the clinic core. It is not yet running in a paying customer’s hospital, and there is no drawn bed map, no structured MAR and no automatically drafted discharge summary yet. What is real today: a hospital defines its estate and wards, admits a patient to a bed, records signed daily rounds, diagnoses and medication orders, charts nursing observations in the ward’s own columns, transfers and discharges them with a printed discharge summary, and sees an inpatient bill that posts the bed charge one line per day. It is the module that turns the clinic product into a hospital product.
Questions we are asked
Can we manage admissions today?
Yes — admission, the bed census, transfers, the nursing chart, discharge and the inpatient bill are built and in verification. What is not there yet is a drawn bed map, a structured medication administration record, and an auto-generated discharge summary.
Is it running in a hospital yet?
Not yet. Like the rest of the product it is built and in pre-release verification, not yet live for a paying customer. We would rather be honest about that on a web page than oversell it in a demo.
How does inpatient billing work?
There is one bill per admission — a Billing-Core invoice, not a separate ledger. The ward’s nightly tariff posts as one line per bed-day, services are added the same way as anywhere else, and discharge finalizes it. Packages and interim billing are still planned.
Could we pilot the outpatient side now and add wards later?
Yes, and several conversations are shaped exactly that way. Modules are entitlements, so inpatient turns on when a hospital is ready for it, and nothing is migrated twice.
