TL;DR — Start with speed, reliability, and support. Then check specialty‑specific templates and workflows. Run a small pilot, validate data export, and only then migrate widely.
Speed in OPD: 3–5 clicks to a safe e‑Rx
Stability: >99.9% uptime with clear status updates
Support: India‑time support with response SLOs
Data controls: clean exports (PDF/CSV), patient summary, backups
Compliance: access controls, audit logs, privacy posture
Interop readiness: structured data and potential ABDM connectors
SOAP with quick templates (fever, URTI, HTN/DM follow‑ups)
Drug favorites and chronic care plans
Labs/imaging orders with status tracking
Growth charts and vaccination schedules
Parent/guardian capture and consent notes
Weight‑based dosing helpers
Antenatal templates and trimester tracking
Scan/report attachments and lab panels
Consent templates (procedures)
Visual acuity and refraction fields
Imaging and procedure logging
Post‑op follow‑up templates
Tooth charting, procedures, and inventory linkage

Treatment plans with staged visits
Injury templates, scoring, and imaging links
Procedure notes and implant tracking
Rehab/physio follow‑ups
Lesion mapping/photos
Procedure templates (biopsy, cryo)

Define 5–8 real scenarios per specialty and test end‑to‑end.
Time the consult from triage → e‑Rx → follow‑up scheduling.
Export patient summaries; verify readability and completeness.
Stress‑test support: ask 3–4 real questions and measure response.
Start with active patients; import a minimal historical set.
Clean duplicates during pilot; agree on a master data format.
Train by role (reception, nursing, doctor, billing) for 60–90 minutes.
License (per user/room) + add‑ons (SMS, inventory, telemedicine)
Hardware (printers, scanners), training time, and potential downtime
Exit costs: how you’ll export and shut down if needed
3–5 for the most common visits. Improve weekly.
Run the pilot on the same week’s OPD, same doctors, identical scenarios.
