Why you need a computer? A smartphone? A bike or car? Or even a fork an knife? These are not necessary to live. You can manage things without these. But we don’t. And the reason is partly that we are used to it, but more importantly, it’s because, these things make our job easier, save our time, and reduce our efforts. Similar is the case with clinic management software. It makes your tasks easier, saves your time, and reduces your efforts. There is a study about this, which shows that a clinic management software increases productivity by 100 to 300 percent.

Reasons to use Clinic Management Software
A whole list of benefits of clinic management software can be found here, but now we’ll highlight only the top five.
- Appointment Scheduling System
- Billing Management System
- Telemedicine
- Treatment Plans
- Patient Records (EMR/EHR)
We’ll look into these by one to understand what problems these are solving.
Appointment Scheduling System
You might have faced this issue that either the patient or you forgot about the appointment and some blunder happened due to this which resulted in a bad reputation of your clinic, hospital or institution. Now we are humans, not machines. Our strength is analysis and creativity, not memory. We have built solutions for such tasks, then why don’t we use these solutions. We can create a schedule, set appointments – which will also send reminder messages to the patients, and us so we can inform each other in case of any change in plans. Why aren’t you taking advantage of it? Statistics show that Pakistan is one of the most lenient countries which shows negligence towards health practices. If our government can’t solve problems, we will. We’ll find solutions for our problems on our own, and that’s what we are trying to do. Get rid of the pen and paper. Get rid of the token system, the parchi system. Control things efficiently. And use digital appointment software.
Billing Management System
Being part of this capitalist society, we know what importance money has gotten in our social institutions. And we cannot ignore the fact that the trust issues that we have today among ourselves, are mostly because of money. This society has seen much worse examples to trust breakage which leads to violence. Now one solution is to become a mystic and refuse all the worldly matters. Second is to become skeptical and observe your near and dears with the eye of suspicion. Or third, it to use a Billing Management Software which will tell you exactly about how much amount your account has, and how much is spent on something. There is no chance of doubt about its credibility because if you spend Rs 98, it will show a reduction of 98, and won’t round it up to 100. This little amount often causes huge losses. So trust your family, friends, and staff, and let the software do calculations for you.
Telemedicine
Until when you’ll keep on waking up, going to the clinic, and wait for patients. Time has changed and the world too. Now you don’t need to go to the station and ask for a taxi. You just use a smartphone. Whenever you need food, you can order it wherever you are. Similarly, isn’t it better than if patients need to consult a doctor, they can just turn to their phone and save time? We can’t hold an in-depth diagnosis, but basic consultation can be done so you can decide whether you need to get a proper check or not. In these things too, apt clinic management software is helpful. Though most clinic management software doesn’t have this feature, InstaCARE’s clinic management software does care about this.
Treatment Plans
“So dear, patient. Please take this red tablet in the morning. Blue one at lunch, and the green one before bed.” And the patient is lost. Efficient doctors never work this way. There is international standard practice for treatment plans where you create an editable customized digital treatment plan for your special patient. A clinic management software provides you with this feature that adds value and more credibility to your treatments. This way you can also track the performance of patients and can accommodate changes if necessary.
Patients Records
This is also linked with the previous feature. In our relatively modern society, most people, in terms of health, trust in one or two doctors. This helps the doctor in treatment as he knows the history of the patient. But this puts pressure on doctors to recall every time about past medications of the patient. This has become easier with the best clinic management system that takes care of the patient’s history and record. So you can easily refer to the patient’s past for any assistance.
