We’re excited to announce the launch of MyOPD™ For Patients, a new app designed to enhance communication and engagement between you and your patients.

Benefits for Patients:

• Convenient Access: Patients can download the app from the Play Store or App Store for easy access to information and communication with you.
• Latest Rx and Clinic Information: Patients can stay informed with their latest prescription and your clinic information, right within the app. This feature is available in the app today.
• Improved Communication: 
  • Using MyOPD™ For Patients app, patients will soon start receive notifications for Follow-ups, Appointments etc directly to the app. This feature will be available for all the users of MyOPD Windows Version having an active AMC. In addition to your SMS and WhatsApp reminders, this will be an additional reminding method.
  • Doctors who are currently not sending SMS / WhatsApp reminders to patients for follow-ups can also benefit from this feature. Patients who have downloaded this app will see the reminder as a notification. While this method is less reliable as patients can disable the notifications from apps, we think that patients won’t disable such important notifications from Doctors Clinic / Hospital. It will definitely be better than not reminding at all.

How is MyOPD™ For Patients app different?

1. MyOPD For Patients is not a Doctor Discovery platform. We are not into the business of recommending Doctors to your patients.

3. MyOPD For Patients app is totally ad-free. We do not show any Advertisements to user nor endorse any products within the app.
4. MyOPD For Patients app will only show notifications sent by the Doctors of those patients. In certain cases we may send technical updates. However, we do not send any promotional content to your patients.

Important Points for Optimal Use:

1. MyOPD™ All In One App for Doctors Configuration: Ensure your MyOPD All In One app is correctly set up for your account. If you encounter any issues, please open a support ticket with our team for assistance.
2. SMS Credits: SMS verification will be done for patient mobile numbers. Please ensure you have sufficient SMS credits in your account. SMS credit from your account will be used while verifying your patient.
3. Clinic/Hospital Information: Double-check that your Clinic/Hospital information is accurately reflected on your online webpage. This information, including timings, will be displayed to patients within the app.

By encouraging your patients to use MyOPD For Patients, you can create a more streamlined and efficient communication experience for everyone.

We recently spoke with Dr. Jain, a busy physician, about his hesitation regarding clinic software. His concerns are common among many doctors making the switch from paper charts or outdated software. Let’s explore Dr. Jain’s questions and see how MyOPD Clinic Software addressed them:

1. Getting Started: A Smooth Transition?

Dr. Jain was worried about the time it would take him and his staff to learn a new software. We assured him that with MyOPD, they could be up and running in just one day! Our team provides thorough initial training, and we’re happy to train new staff members as needed.

2. Scalability: Can it Handle My Growth?

Dr. Jain wondered if the software’s performance would degrade as his patient base grew. We put his mind at ease by sharing the story of a MyOPD user who has successfully managed over 25,000+ patients and 100,000+ visits. The software is built to handle high volumes, so the issues encountered with 1,000 patients are already addressed.

3. Technical Support: Help When I Need It?

Dr. Jain wanted to know what happens if he encounters technical difficulties. MyOPD offers a dedicated support team to ensure smooth operation. Initially, he can call our support number for immediate assistance. Later, he can easily submit support tickets through our user-friendly tracking website.

4. Adaptability: Keeping Up with the Medical Landscape?

Dr. Jain expressed concern that the software wouldn’t adapt to the evolving needs of the medical field. We explained that MyOPD prioritizes staying current. We release regular updates (roughly four times a year) based on doctor feedback and industry requirements. You can even view a comprehensive list of all updates on our website MyOPD Windows Releases – MyOPD™ Updates.

Let’s start with examining some statistics. The picture below shows the trends of Google Searches for “Fake Prescription” and “Clinic Software”.

You can view such trends at trends.google.com We ran this trend search for “fake prescription” and “clinic software” on 5th April 2024 keeping Geographical region as India. The data seen here is for the past 12 months. You can run the same Google Trends check for previous 12 months HERE

What do the results show?

1. As seen, the number of searches done for Clinic Software are almost equal to the number of searches being done for Fake Prescriptions.
2. There are people out there who want to create Fake Prescriptions and submit them at work or other places for medical reasons.

Should I as a Doctor be concerned about this?

If such a Fake Prescription is created by anyone using the name of the Doctor, then the Doctor would need a way to prove that the Rx is indeed not theirs. The good news is, if the Doctor is already using an EMR Software or a Clinic Software, proving is very easy. If this Rx does not appear in your software, it was not issued by you, simple.

How are Fake Prescriptions created?

Anyone with basic knowledge of using Word processor or Spreadsheet could create a Fake Prescription that can be printed and made to look legitimate. Plus, many software products, including MyOPD, offer free trial to Doctors. Anyone can download such a free version and create a printed prescription.

How can Doctors protect themselves?

Make sure you follow these best practices while using your Clinic Software in general:

1. Your EMR Software already captures the digital record of your prescription. If you haven’t issued any prescription similar to the person creating a fake prescription, then it was simply not issued by you.
2. Always make sure you stamp and sign the Prescription. It just makes it somewhat harder for the Fake prescription creator as they now need to have a stamp like your Clinic’s stamp.
3. Sensitize the Pharmacy People to check back with you when they receive suspicious prescriptions under your name that don’t make sense.
4. Always have a strong password with at least 15 characters with a mix of Special Characters and Upper and Lower cases while using EMR Software.
5. Never tell your password to anyone. Never share the OTPs you receive on your apps with anyone.
6. Always keep your OS patched up to latest versions. Use good quality Antivirus Softwares.
7. Never click on any suspicious links received from known / unknown contacts. When you do so, hackers might be able to gain access of your devices remotely.
8. Always keep the Software products to the latest versions that are released to the market. There are various issues that are fixed to keep the software up to date and current.
