A very common question we were asked when we started MyOPD in late 2011. Our company became Private Limited in July 2012. Answering these questions have become easy for us in 2015 than in the year 2012 when we were not even an year old.

The question was pertinent though.  Doctors had gone through some rough experiences while dealing with some providers in the past. Particularly the Doctors we met faced these issues from their vendors:

  • Were promised everything that was asked by the sales person. Once the money was paid, no promises were kept
  • Gave really basic Software and kept asking more money for customization
  • Vendors were college students/friends/relatives doing part time projects. No serious dedication to make things better for Doctors over a period of time.

How different are we?

  • MyOPD sells directly through the internet. We do not visit Doctor’s office simply because it is not required. This way, we reduce our operating costs and pass the monitory benefit to you. Mobiles are bought these days over the internet, why can’t clinic software?

Pediatric Vaccination in India

How does it work?

If you are a Pediatrician or a General Physician, pediatric vaccination is one activity that is a part of routine work in the clinic. One of the common questions asked by our clients undertaking the trial is – Can you remind patients about their vaccination milestones as per the IAP schedule?

Well, we would love to do that. However, there is a problem in the way India works. We experienced it in the field with our trial solution and then rolled it back. Here were the issues faced while implementing the automated SMS reminders using the IAP Schedule.

Find me patients with Diabetes

Does your clinic software allow you to?

Diagnosis Trend

1) Find all the patients who have Diabetes

2) Find all the patients who have Diabetes and have age above 50 years

3) Find all the patients who have Diabetes, have age above 50 years and are females

4) Find all the Patients who are above 100kg and have age less than 30 years

5) Find how many Tuberculosis patients were detected at my clinic in the last year

Once I find them, I want to tell them something really important which will make their life better.

This release packs a punch to reduce the time it takes for Doctors to see a patient by reducing few clicks here and there. However, those clicks certainly take down the time while doing the repetitive entry over and over.

Net neutrality simplied – Example I

Net Neutrality – Example I

Net Neutrality - Logo Source: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:NetNeutrality_logo.svg

At MyOPD, we plan to help you make aware of net neutrality issue by introducing you to the concept with the help of certain real life examples.

Here is the first one in this series:

  1. You do a search (Google or Bing or Yahoo)
  2. Results show up in the search results
  3. You click a link to one of the website from the search results
  4. Your internet provider shows you a message like – “Sorry, your internet plan does not allow you to view this website”

Which side are you ON?

If you think this is wrong, you are supporting Net Neutrality. If you think it’s okay to slice internet like the way we pay for TV channel packages, you are against it.

If you are supporting Net Neutrality, spend couple of mintues to let Telecom Regulatory Authority Of India (TRAI) know about it. Just visit www.savetheinternet.in and let TRAI know that you don’t want your freedom of visiting any site on the internet to be taken away.

Clinic Accounting Software – Feature

Tracking Outstanding Amount in Clinic

The other day we were talking to one of our Doctors. He was relieved that MyOPD allowed him to track outstanding amounts related to patients. In an OPD, exact change is one of the practical issues Doctors and Patients face.

Suppose you are a Paediatrician and have administered a vaccination to your patient. Total amount is Rs. 2000. Unfortunately, the client has Rs. 1500 only. MyOPD allows you to accept Rs. 1500 and keep a track of the remaining Rs. 500. It shows you the balance amount the next time this patient visits.

Money saved is money earned

We have come across instances where Doctors are unable to collect the correct amount from reception staff because of lack of tracking. There have been instances where Rs. 100 have been taken off daily causing the Doctor a revenue loss of approximately Rs. 2500/month (considering 25 working days a month). Now, that is Rs. 30,000/year. That is a lot of money to lose.

This won’t happen with MyOPD in place. You can keep a track of your daily earning with a button click and tally with the amount you have in your drawer.  Refer how you can view your income and expenses in MyOPD by using the OPD Accounting feature.

How good is MyOPD support?

How should be the support for any product?

Let us see with an analogy of the car market in India. Maruti Suzuki is one of the most trusted car brands in India. The prime reason for that is their after sales support. They have a huge network across India which could bail you out in case of trouble, literally anywhere. However, Maruti Suzuki is famous for something else. Their cars just don’t need any support for the first few years. Those first few years happen to be typically 5+ years. Nothing happens to their cars. Isn’t that wonderful?

Safety of your data

One of the common questions Doctors ask us is – Is my data safe within your cloud backup? Who has access to our data?

These are very important issues and we have strict adherence to policies to help us provide you the level of service and transparency you would expect.

So in this post, let’s look at how is your data accessed, when and by whom?

 

Doctors, Your Data is invaluable!

We were having a regular day at office. Thinking about what to do next for our Doctors and discussion around multiple possibilities.

Dr. Manoj Katariya, Manas Hospital, Pune
Dr. Manoj Katariya – using MyOPD Software since 2012

A frantic call from Dr. Manoj Katariya, one of our client set the tone for the day.  Dr. Katariya’s computer was refusing to start. Dr. Katariya was worried about his practice data. Rightly so, he had just finished entering around 5000+ patients and multiple visits in them. The computer was shown to the hardware vendor. The guy recommended a format. Rarely have I seen guys troubleshooting the system and resolving an issue without a format. Format seems to be the easiest way out to fix a problem.
