Welcome to Medara

What Medara is: a visit-centric HMIS where one patient record runs through every department.

Medara Health Suite is a hospital information management system built for Indian multi-branch hospitals. Registration, OPD, clinical care, diagnostics, pharmacy, IPD, billing, insurance, and MIS reports share one real-time patient file — not separate department silos that staff reconcile by hand.

One patient, one UHID

Every person has a single lifelong hospital ID. Always search by mobile, name, or ABHA before creating a registration. Duplicate UHIs split history, double-bill risk, and break ABHA linkage.

The clinical spine (how data flows)

Almost every module hangs off one chain: patient → visit → encounter → order → result, with charges rolling into invoices and claims. Nothing clinical or financial floats free of a visit.

Front Office

OPD Counter, Patient Database, OPD Queue, Availability — where identity and visits start.

Clinical

Consultation raises orders that fan out to Lab, Radiology, Pharmacy, Blood Bank; ER and Nursing feed IPD.

Money & admin

Billing gathers auto-posted charges; Insurance tracks TPA claims; Reports and Configuration run the hospital.

Design rules staff feel every day

  • Everything traces to a visit; every visit to one patient.
  • Orders (lab, drug, imaging, blood) share one pattern: ordered → in progress → completed → charged.
  • Nothing is delivered without a price from the tariff / charge master — no ad-hoc amounts at the counter.
  • Clinical actions post bill lines so finance does not re-type the consult, CBC, or Rx.
  • Roles control which modules appear and which actions (finalize, dispense, validate) are allowed.
  • Multi-branch: each row is scoped to a hospital; staff only see their tenant’s data.
