The client
Sevika runs a 220-bed hospital with twelve specialities, an in-house pharmacy and a diagnostic lab. Around 40% of inpatients are covered by insurance or corporate schemes.
The challenge
- ✕Consumables used on wards were often missing from final bills.
- ✕Pharmacy stock was tracked in a standalone system that didn't flag expiry or reorder levels.
- ✕Insurance claim documents were compiled by hand, delaying settlements.
- ✕Shift rosters and doctor revenue shares were calculated in spreadsheets.
The solution
OPD, IPD and package billing
Admissions, services, packages and consumables billed from one patient record.
Insurance and TPA claims
Pre-authorisation, document checklists and claim status tracked through settlement.
Pharmacy inventory
Batch and expiry control, reorder levels and ward-wise issue linked to patient bills.
HRMS and payroll
Shift rosters, attendance, statutory payroll and doctor revenue share.
Patient app
Appointment booking, lab reports and payment reminders on Android and iOS.
