AIIMS to generate e-prescriptions for OPDs
By MYBRANDBOOK
The All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), New Delhi has developed a real-time telemedicine dashboard for the out-patient departments (OPDs). With this, patients can access the teleconsultation facility and doctors can access test reports, conduct online classes and exams and generate e-prescription for patients.
OPD services resumed in the hospital last week after a break of almost three months due to the coronavirus disease (Covid-19) pandemic.
Through the new online registration system, a patient gets a username and password and a link to the video consult on the dashboard. For those patients who do not have an advanced phone, the audio consultation facility is also available on this dashboard. There will be no online walk-in consultations unless the doctors specifically asks for it, and only those patients with a prior appointment will be added to the list.
Prescriptions generated on the dashbboard will be converted into a text message and sent to the patient’s phone.
The team tested the dashboard initially with OPDs of three departments- geriatrics, orthopaedics, and paediatric surgery. OPDs of about 11 departments are currently using the dashboard, and in next 10 days all the 45 departments will be moved to this tele-consultation module. AIIMS has nearly 45 departments, and runs scores of multi-speciality clinics on a daily basis.
The dashboard is currently being evaluated for user feedback. From each department there is a doctor who will be a nodal member to put forward suggestions for improvement.
The faculty has also been using the software to conduct online undergraduate and post-graduate classes, and also conducting exams.
The team plans to eventually move all departments and operations related to AIIMS on this platform.
