metaSOFT Inpatient Management covers the full ward lifecycle — from admission and bed allocation through nursing documentation, physician order management and closed-loop medication to discharge planning and billing. Every clinical event is recorded on the patient's EMR in real time.
Full ward bed map with occupancy, gender zone, isolation flags and VIP designation updated in real time; no clipboard rounds to check availability.
Admission assessment, care plan, medication administration record and patient education notes captured in specialty-specific structured templates — not in free text.
Physician e-prescription, pharmacy verification, dispense and bedside barcode scan form one unbroken chain; no paper MAR, no manual transcription between steps.
Shift handover reports are auto-generated from the nursing record; task assignment and patient-acuity escalation alerts keep every shift informed without paper.
Discharge summary is auto-populated from encounter data; follow-up appointments and referral letters are booked before the patient leaves the ward.
Occupancy rate, average length of stay, readmission flag and cost per patient day by ward and physician — live, without waiting for a finance report.
Inpatient Management is natively integrated with every other HMS module. The moment a patient is admitted, their record is visible across the EMR, pharmacy, laboratory, radiology and billing — no re-entry, no interface delay. Physician orders placed at the ward workstation route to the pharmacy worklist and laboratory specimen collection queue in real time. Nursing vital signs feed directly into the patient's clinical chart.
At discharge, the billing module captures all charges from the clinical record — medications dispensed, investigations ordered, procedures performed — and generates the final invoice without billing staff re-entering a single line. Insurance split is calculated from the pre-verified eligibility on file.
