⚠️ The Challenge: Balancing Affordability with Financial SustainabilityCharitable hospitals often grapple with the need to make healthcare accessible while maintaining financial viability. Unlike commercial pharmacies that typically sell products at the Maximum Retail Price (MRP), charitable hospitals strive to provide medications at prices that are affordable for their patients. This creates a delicate balance between ensuring that the cost of healthcare remains low and covering the operational expenses of the hospital.One of the key areas where this challenge becomes evident is in the management of pharmacy sales. While the purchase price of a product is fixed, selling it at the MRP might be beyond the reach of many patients. At the same time, selling at or below the purchase price is not sustainable for the hospital. This is where the concept of Differential MRP comes into play.💡 Solution: Implementing Differential MRP for Charitable Pricing StrategiesTo address this challenge, we introduced the Differential MRP feature within the Goods Received Note (GRN) screen. This feature allows hospitals to set a sale price that is higher than the purchase price but lower than the standard MRP, making it an effective tool for charitable hospitals to provide affordable pricing while ensuring that they remain financially sustainable.🔍 Understanding Differential MRPThe Goods Received Note (GRN) screen is used to record the receipt of products by the pharmacy from suppliers. When adding a product to the GRN, three key pricing parameters are typically involved:Purchase Price: The cost at which the product is bought from the supplier.MRP (Maximum Retail Price): The highest price at which the product can be sold.Sale Rate (formerly Differential MRP): A flexible pricing option that allows hospitals to sell the product at a price that is between the purchase price and MRP.Differential MRP is particularly useful in scenarios where the hospital needs to offer a reduced price that is fair to both the patient and the institution. This appears in the GRN screen when the corresponding configuration is enabled in the product master. By entering the sale rate alongside the purchase price and MRP, the product can then be sold at this adjusted price on the sales screen. 🚀 Recent Enhancements to the Differential MRP FeatureTo better align this feature with user needs and improve its usability, we have implemented several key updates:🔄 Renaming Differential MRP to Sale RateTo make the feature more intuitive, we have renamed "Differential MRP" to "Sale Rate." This terminology is more straightforward and accurately describes the purpose of this parameter, which is to represent the actual price at which the product will be sold to the patient.📊 Integration of Sale Rate into MIS ReportsWe’ve expanded the visibility of the Sale Rate by incorporating it into several important Management Information System (MIS) reports:Bill-wise Detailed Report: This report now includes the Sale Rate as a separate column, alongside the purchase price and MRP. This enhancement provides a more comprehensive view of pharmacy sales, allowing hospitals to track how the Sale Rate is being applied across different transactions.GRN Detailed Report: In this report, which details all products purchased by the pharmacy, the Sale Rate is now displayed alongside the purchase price and MRP. This update ensures that the adjusted selling price is clearly visible during inventory review.Current Stock Value Report: The Sale Rate has also been added to this report, which shows the current stock levels and values. This addition helps in evaluating the financial implications of the inventory, giving insight into the pricing strategies being implemented. ✅ Conclusion: Enhancing Charitable Hospital Operations with Differential MRPThe recent updates to the Differential MRP, now known as the Sale Rate, are part of our ongoing efforts to support charitable hospitals in their mission to provide affordable healthcare. By renaming this feature and integrating it more deeply into our reporting tools, we ensure that our users can more effectively manage their pricing strategies. These enhancements help maintain the balance between affordability for patients and financial sustainability for the hospital.

In an era where digitalization is reshaping the healthcare industry, the importance of safeguarding patient data cannot be overstated. With the increasing reliance on electronic health records (EHRs) and digital communication, ensuring that sensitive patient information remains secure is a top priority for healthcare providers. At MocDoc, we recognize this need and are committed to providing innovative solutions that enhance data security. We are excited to introduce our latest feature: Mobile Masking—a powerful tool designed to protect patient contact information while maintaining the flexibility needed for effective communication.The Importance of Mobile Masking in HealthcareHealthcare institutions handle vast amounts of sensitive patient data daily, including contact details, medical histories, and treatment information. While this data is essential for delivering quality care, it also represents a significant privacy risk if not properly protected. Unauthorized access to patient contact information can lead to data breaches, misuse of personal data, and erosion of patient trust. Mobile Masking addresses these concerns by offering an added layer of security, ensuring that patient mobile numbers are only accessible to authorized personnel when absolutely necessary.Why Mobile Masking?The primary goal of Mobile Masking is to prevent unauthorized access to patient contact information, thereby reducing the risk of data breaches or misuse. By automatically masking mobile numbers in patient records, we help healthcare providers maintain confidentiality and protect their patients' privacy. Only authorized users can unmask and view these numbers, and even then, only when it is essential for patient care. This approach balances the need for efficient communication with the imperative of protecting sensitive data.How Mobile Masking Works: Seamless Integration with Enhanced SecurityMobile Masking is seamlessly integrated into the MocDoc platform, making it easy for users to protect patient data without disrupting their workflow. Here’s how it works:1. Controlled Access to Patient Contact InformationWhen a healthcare provider or administrative staff member accesses a patient’s record, the mobile number will be masked by default. This means that only a portion of the number is visible, preventing unauthorized users from viewing the full contact details. However, if the user needs to contact the patient directly—for example, to confirm an appointment or discuss treatment options—they can unmask the number. This action is quick and straightforward, ensuring that communication is not hindered while still prioritizing privacy.2. Transparency and Accountability: Keeping Data Access in CheckTo ensure that Mobile Masking is used responsibly, we’ve implemented robust transparency and accountability measures. Every time a user unmasks a patient’s mobile number, the system logs this action and records the user’s identity. These logs are then compiled into a comprehensive report that is accessible to hospital administrators.

In this phase, the laboratory staff will be responsible for selecting the appropriate test methods, preparing the samples, running the tests and ensuring that the recorded results are accurate, precise and consistent. ● Post-Analytical phase: The Post-Analytical phase is the final and crucial step in the sample lifecycle, where the test results are reviewed and verified for accuracy and completeness by a professional, such as a clinician or a doctor, and any necessary corrections or amendments are made. The final report is then generated and delivered to the patient. The special features of the MocDoc LIMS Sample Tracking system: Monitoring a sample’s progress throughout its lifecycle helps the professionals in managing the laboratory processes effectively, by analyzing the duration it spends in each department. This enables labs to maintain a satisfactory TAT consistently and also facilitates identifying the cause of any testing delay. Sample Recieve Workflow: The Sample Receive Workflow feature in MocDoc LIMS streamlines the process of receiving samples in a laboratory. Sometimes, the samples collected from the patient in the accession department may not reach the processing unit on time, hence it is important to track the sample's arrival time for maintaining allocation turnaround time. With a simple barcode scan, technicians can efficiently receive and track the sample's arrival time, ensuring that the testing process remains within the allocated turnaround time (TAT). This feature is essential for accurately monitoring the progress of samples and ensuring that the results are produced on time. Staged Process Workflow: The testing process carried out for a few samples may involve various stages such as cassette preparation, and specimen staining, before the final test results are obtained. These processes can vary depending on the type of test being conducted. It is crucial to monitor these processes to determine the current status of the sample and the time taken for each stage of processing. This is accomplished with the "Staged Process Workflow" in MocDoc, which tracks the progress of each test at every process, keeping a record of the sample's journey from preparation to completion. The workflow also provides insights into the time taken for each intermediate stage. Customized workflows can be created for each test, based on its specific requirements. With the advent of technology, the MocDoc LIMS System has made the process of tracking samples simpler. MocDoc's Sample Tracking module allows you to track the status of the samples throughout their lifecycle, from the time of collection to the time of archival, which in turn helps the labs maintain their brand reputation and service standards

Is it important for organizations like hospitals to advertise? Well, let's hope to find our answers here. Every product or service that we use in our daily life is a result of many marketing strategies. Marketing is a powerful way of educating people about your excellence, expertise and existence in regards to your field. To earn people's attention, people need to know how you can help them with their issues and to do this, marketing is very much the tool. There are several ways to marketing and they can be divided into 2 categories:The modern way of marketingThe traditional way of marketingThe modern way of marketing, living in an era where everything is digital, modern is nothing but digital. Online hospital marketing can connect you with people online in unexpected ways. Here are a few ways to do online hospital marketing.Website: They say a website is the online house of any business and it for sure is. A website should people tell people everything about the hospital, and a well-structured website will always keep the traffic engaged. The names of doctors who work at the hospital with their speciality, the services provided, and sharing of testimonials will help the hospital connect with people. Most millennials tend to search for more information about the hospital online before booking an appointment. Moreover, they prefer booking appointments online.Blogs:  Lately, people have become more aware and conscious about personal health. Insightful healthcare blogs will help you connect with readers online. Studies say more than 5% of google searches are about health. Encourage your doctors to write insightful blogs on important healthcare topics that people are curious to learn. Social media post: Social media platforms like Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter and Instagram have the most engaging network. Online hospital marketing on these platforms can do a great profit for your organization. People online want to relate to content, so post content that you believe in, wish to raise awareness about and which will prove helpful to people. Such content will create your brand identity among huge groups of people and will reach a large audience across networks.Video insights: Video contents are a highly engaging form of content these days. It is seen that people prefer short and informative video content more than written content. This format of content will make your network feel interactive with you. Email and SMS: Emails and SMS are a personalized way of marketing and approaching your patients. Send them emails that they can relate to, like health tips or diet plans, or blog articles relating to their issues. Send them follow-up appointment reminders or tell them about the camps or discounts you are conducting via SMS.In the traditional way of marketing, as a hospital, you don't just see people of one demographic but many countless demographics like different ages, genders, backgrounds, and more. And It's possible to have a demographic of people who don't belong on digital platforms, and that is literally why traditional marketing is important.Print media: Printing in newspapers and magazines is not new, but it has still got its value. These mediums have a strong base of the audience who are regular and believe in them. Contributing health-based articles to them will give you a great reach and identity among its audience.Camps: Camps are conducted for the greater good cause, but they also help in building brand identity and goodwill. Conduct camps like full health check-ups on World Health Day blood donation camps on World Blood Day or children's health check-up camps on Children's day.  Such camps will help you connect with new people. Standees: Stands? Really? An eye-catching illustration or quote will make its place in viewers' minds. Health-based quotes, tips, or creative illustrations on a standee will make your brand known to even people who are just reading by. Such creatives tend to stay in people’s minds much longer.Word of mouth: Make sure to give the utmost patient satisfaction to all your patients as word of mouth can bring in new patients to your hospital, and build your reputation and goodwill. Treat your employee in the right way as they are just as important as your patients in your hospital.Television: Television ads are usually preferred for some big announcements like branch openings. Go for television ads only when you find the real need for it as they are the costliest form of advertising. Most hospitals prefer to advertise for a month or two and advertise only in the regions they exist.So how will these hospital marketing strategies help in scaling up the productivity of your hospital?With every possible information available digitally on your fingertips, people want to learn about the brand, product, and service before going for it. They want to learn about your experience, knowledge, and speciality in the field. As a hospital, you need to let people learn about you and from you, and you do this through the various ways of marketing. This way, new people will prefer to walk up to you for consultation and treatment purposes, resulting in an increase in the productivity of the hospital.

What is an integrated hospital management system? How could it help the hospitals? There are multiple departments in hospitals that carry out numerous activities daily. There is a lot of communication that takes place and information to share between departments which are crucial and need to be stored in a system with a good user interface. Hospitals use heterogeneous management systems like appointment scheduling software, telemedicine software, diagnostic software, EHR software, billing software, and more. It's a tedious task to maintain all this software and make a single report from various collections. Now, this requires a huge team! But what if a single management system could replace these heterogeneous systems efficiently?An integrated hospital management system is one such system. Like any other hospital management system, it does not just store information but also connects all the departments under a single interface. It supports the various departments of a hospital such as a laboratory, clinic, and pharmacy in a single interface, making it easy for the departments to interact and share patient information. Interoperability is the constant chain in any hospital as on average, a patient visiting a hospital engages at least with two departments. Well, taking the chain of interoperability digital with an integrated hospital management system will help the hospital attain efficiency in its core aspects. Here are a few points on how this helps the patients and the hospital.Patients part:Appointment: Make appointment booking hassle-free by letting your patients book appointments online via the website/mobile app.On the dot: Share electronic patient records with departments or patients themselves in no time.Reduce no-shows: Send SMS or email reminders to your patients, reminding them of their upcoming appointments.Personalized: Send health tips or diet plans to your patients based on their health conditions.Hospitals part: One for all: An integrated hospital management system will eradicate the need for different systems as it combines all the department modules. Performance Report: Generate weekly, monthly, or yearly performance reports of the hospital in a snap of fingers (No! You don't need a team to do this.) Reference: Makes it easy to manage and estimate referral payments to clinics and outsourced laboratory tests.Marketing: Conduct medical camps remotely with the help of offline camp management modules and let your patients know through email.Thus, integration is crucial between all the departments of the hospital owing to interoperability. Integration between the departments will take their communication on a digital pathway, making the hospital's workflow seamless and easy. Here are the various areas of integration regarding a hospital.Hospital-Laboratory: Have you ever had a phase where the laboratory used different software from that of the hospital? If yes, then you must know how time-consuming each process with the laboratory could get. However, an integrated hospital management system will allow you to share patient health records and required tests with the laboratory. Likewise, the laboratory can send you the patient's electronic test results in no time. This eliminates paperwork and other possible manual work.Hospital-Pharmacy: How different is a hospital’s pharmacy from a standalone pharmacy? A pharmacy integrated with a hospital can get patients' e-prescriptions from doctors and provide timely medications to the in-patients. Further, the pharmacy can even take care of the supplements that are to be provided to the OT department. This integration allows the doctor to know about the availability of medicine in the pharmacy or its alternative before prescribing it to the patients.Hospital-Clinic: Well, parent hospitals do have multi-location clinics, and these clinics can be integrated with the hospital in a single interface, cases that need prior attention are often shifted to the hospital and this lets the hospital learn about the patient's history quickly through the health records. An integrated hospital management system allows the hospital to overlook the functioning of its multi-location clinics by just switching between the identities of the organization.Centralized Data vs Distributed Data: (Point of discussion)Centralized Data or Distributed Data, you have got data to handle. Data needs to be taken care of efficiently for the smooth everyday functioning of the hospital. But which is the better way to do so? When every department is integrated into a single software, the data is centralized. Thus a patient ID once created is just carried forward by every department, whereas in the dominance of heterogeneous software, a patient has to get themselves registered, with every department attended.Organizing data and generating revenue or performance reports is very easy when the data is centralized. Most of the integrated patient management systems have the feature of an analytic dashboard which lets the management create weekly, monthly, or yearly performance reports of the hospital. When the data is distributed, it takes a lot of time to collect and organize them. This process is quite a lengthy one and requires a huge team at work.Cost-wise advantage: Software has different types of pricing patterns, which may be budget-friendly or not. Like subscription-based, a percent of your revenue is based on the number of patients visiting. Having different software is going to charge you in different ways and might end up very expensive too. On the other side, when just a single piece of software is in use by all the departments, you are charged by a standard pattern. This gives you the advantage of forecasting the cost you might have to endure and if it's budget-friendlyPatient Experience: Patient satisfaction is a goal that any hospital wishes to achieve. It is the key to the productivity of the hospital. Perhaps, it creates the goodwill of the hospital. But how can software keep you far from achieving this?Turnaround time: No hospital wishes to increase a patient's turnaround time, Neither do you. But this might be happening unintentionally by the use of different software by departments. For instance, A patient has to manually take all the health records to the laboratory and get themselves registered for a test. On receiving the test results, the patient will again have to take the results to the doctor, themself. This whole process is time-consuming for the patients, and such issues can be solved by using a single software.Technical Issues: Diving into a scenario where a hospital maintains a separate billing software. Owing to a few technical issues the software turned faulty, which caused chaos at the reception. Problems like these are Stressful for the patients and are more likely to affect the reputation of the hospital. Such scenarios could be avoided with a cloud-based Hospital Management System where the cloud has a backup cloud to ensure such nightmares don't come true.Flexible Meeting: With all the changes the recent time has brought, Telemedicine has become a need. Patients now prefer the telemedicine facility for smaller health issues so that long and discomfort travels can be avoided. Hospitals should adapt themselves to this method of patient appointment and make sure that their software supports telemedicine. This makes things easy for patients who are old or who reside far from the hospital. And also helps the hospital in obtaining patient satisfaction.Ease for doctors and workers inside the hospital:Integrating every department of the hospital will ease down a lot of work for the doctors and other workers of the hospital. Generating analytical reports with the help of a dashboard.Reduce manual paperwork by sharing electronic health records.Effective marketing Via email and SMS.The right software will increase the efficiency and productivity of the hospital. Hope you found this blog on the Integrated Hospital management system insightful. 

When you decide to implement a hospital management system in your hospital, the next step is to decide which system you want to use. Even though researching on the internet and going through the product catalogs of many software providers may tell you what to look for and what features are offered by different companies, it may not give you a complete picture. This is where an HMS product demonstration will be useful. Most companies provide free hospital management systems demos to prospective clients. A free demonstration of the software is an excellent way of knowing what exactly you will be getting when you finally purchase the software. It is like taking a test drive before you buy a car, and like a test drive, you need to know how to best know the software during the demo. Understand your hospitalFor getting a good hospital management software demo, the first step is to get a complete understanding of your hospital. Since you have already decided to get an HMS, you must have done most of your homework. But you need to know what features you will need when you implement the HMS. For HMS to achieve its full potential, the system should meet the requirements of all the users from the hospital administrator, to the lab technicians. To ensure this, discussions will have to be held with the users to get their input. The benefits of these discussions are two-fold. The requirements of different departments will be different and you will be able to know what everyone wants. The other benefit is that the employees of the hospital may have previous experience in using different kinds of HMS, and you will get a lot of insights into the advantages and drawbacks of different systems. And this information will come in handy while getting the demonstration.Having a thorough understanding of the workflow is also very important. Usually, different department heads will have their ways of managing their departments. This is important both while getting a hospital software demo, as well as when you are implementing the system. Most HMS systems are customized around the workflow in a hospital, and company representatives will need to get a fair idea to provide you with a good solution. So it’s better to have all the answers ready when you’re getting the HMS demo. This will also help you when you implement an HMS system in your hospitalOnline demoSoftware providers sometimes provide demos on their websites, and this is a way for you to know the software before a face-to-face demo. You can use these online demos to learn the general features of the HMS system. Once you have gone through this demo, you will know what questions you have to ask the company representative. Online demos are free and the least time-consuming way to evaluate software, even though they may not be complete. Questions you should askOnce you have talked to other hospitals that have implemented  HMS or if you’re already using an HMS, you are probably aware of the general features all the HMS systems have. So before the demo, you need to keep in mind the problems at your hospital you’re trying to solve, and the features you’ll need to use this. The problems could be the ones faced by doctors or patients, such as difficulty in scheduling appointments, or they could be business problems, such as low returns or pilferage from the pharmacy.A hospital management system demo usually takes around 45 minutes and starts with an introduction to the software company. After this, the company representative may ask you about the problems you are facing. Most companies are willing to customize their software for your needs, and you have to make the best use of this. Once you have explained the difficulties your hospital is facing, the representatives will probably explain some of the features they have that can solve these issues. During the demo, if you’re already aware of the general features, it is better to focus on these key features to make a good decision.  There are no set rules on how a demo is conducted, so ask all the questions you have regarding the software. The point of getting a demo is not to make a decision then and there, but to understand all the features of the software. It’s also vital that all the stakeholders understand the software before making a decision, so have representatives from all the departments for the demo. Before deciding on a system, get demos from multiple companies, compare the software, and then decide. To learn more about HMS systems and get a demo, visit Mocdoc Hospital Information Management System
