Consultations and prescribing
Your own top ten, first.
The consulting room module is where a doctor sees the patient’s history, writes notes and prescribes. Allergies are checked by drug and by class as the prescription is written.
Used by: Doctors and consultants.
What it does
- Prescribing picker weighted by what that doctor actually reaches for.
- Repeat the last prescription, dose and duration included, in one tap.
- Allergy checking by drug and by class as you prescribe. It asks rather than refuses, and records who decided.
- Versioned prescriptions: signed records are replaced, never edited, and both stay readable.
- Speciality-aware notes, so a dietician is asked different questions from a cardiologist.
- One patient timeline across visits, tests, scans, medicines, bills and papers.
- Any numeric result charted over time.
- Certificates and referrals.
Questions buyers ask
Can a signed prescription be edited?
No. A correction creates a new version and marks the old one replaced, with a written reason. Both stay readable, because a pharmacy that dispensed against the original needs it to still say what it said.
Can dictation enter a dose?
No. Speech can enter symptoms and observations for the doctor to confirm, but nothing in the speech path can produce a number. Doses are always chosen, never heard.
