Bahmni Implementation services
Bahmni is a popular open source EMR favoured by hospitals and clinics worldwide. Bahmni provides freedom to customize the application as per client’s requirements. Further, the client is free to upgrade Bahmni when open source community releases latest versions. In addition, client keeps complete ownership of the data collected through the system.
Bahmni has great potential for private hospitals and clinics, providing substantial economic advantage compared to proprietary HMS and EMR products. As an AGPL licensed open source software, Bahmni does not need software licensing fees. Private hospitals could partner with a Bahmni implementation vendor and set up a world class hospital management system, by paying for only Bahmni implementation and support services.
As one of the early Bahmni implementation vendor, Nuchange provides high quality end-to-end Bahmni implementations to hospital and clinics of all sizes. To our clients, Nuchange acts as a Bahmni implementation partner providing benefits of having open source software combined with guaranteed support services.
Our Bahmni implementation services include Bahmni configuration, Bahmni customisation, server deployment, end user training and post go-live onsite support. Nuchange follows state of the art implementation process; once completed, we enable the hospital or clinic to switch to the new IT system, completely for daily operations. A Nuchange supported Bahmni implementation for a typical 50-bed hospital takes about one to two months from inception to go-live.
Bahmni Maintenance & Support services
Nuchange provides maintenance and support services for Bahmni systems set up by Nuchange as well as other organizations. As part of system set up, we always provide 6 months Bahmni implementation support, post system go-live. Further, organisations can sign up for annual maintenance contract for the regular upkeep of the Bahmni system and receive support for server outages, operational issues, natural disaster etc.
Support is usually rolled out at tiered levels, with level 1 support being always provided by the local support team. Issues that cannot be handled by local support team are forwarded to Nuchange support center. The local support team could be staffed either by client’s resources or by Nuchange staff.
Bahmni Development services
Bahmni is essentially a patient medical record system integrated with an ERP system(which is Odoo). Odoo brings a lot of versatility to Bahmni package. With minor modifications, Bahmni could be used to build information systems for various players in the healthcare ecosystem, apart from hospitals and clinics. Having a modular architecture, new apps and modules can be easily plugged into Bahmni system to enhance its functionalities. For new companies, this will drastically reduce the cost to develop new IT systems and tools to fit with their business model.
For example, a home health care provider could use Bahmni to set up an integrated EMR and ERP system with custom made mobile apps connecting to the database. This will enable their workforce to access medical records offline while visiting patients at home.
Another example, a telemedicine company could build a video consultation app integrated with Bahmni and could have their platform ready to go with minimal effort. Similarly, insurance providers, multi located hospitals, teleradiology companies could leverage Bahmni platform and build customized information systems for their operations.
Nuchange development team is well placed to serve the healthcare organizations to build custom information systems and tools. Clients can leverage Nuchange’s expertise in ReactJS, iOS, Android to build new apps compatible with the Bahmni system. When we add new features to Bahmni, Nuchange is open to contribute them back to open source community as preferred by the client.
