FAQs

How is invoicing handled for admitted patients?

All services provided during the hospital admission, including stay charges, medications, laboratory tests, and additional procedures, are automatically tracked and added to the invoice generated for each admission. 

Do staff from multiple departments access patient admission data?

Role-based access ensures that authorized staff (doctors, nurses, lab workers, pharmacists, receptionists, and admins) can view or update patient admission data relevant to their role while maintaining data security.

How long can the authorized staff update or edit the patient’s admission details?

Admission details can be edited as long as the patient is still admitted. Once discharged, changes are logged and restricted to maintain accurate records and billing.

Are the LinkHMS admission features suitable for both small clinics and large hospitals?

Yes. The included admission functionality is scalable and configurable to meet the needs of both small healthcare facilities and large, multi-department hospitals.
