It improves patient care as it functions as a central source of information for communication between health care providers, covering the patient’s history, observation, diagnosis and therapeutic conclusions and a wide variety of unstructured documents and information. Moreover it will facilitate increased external linkage possibilities with health care providers and identify clinical events that need attention. It can solve many of the logistics problems of archiving, retrieving, tracing and finding out paper based medical records. Various reports like discharge summary, diagnostic classification as per International Classification of diseases, statistical report according to diagnosis, age, sex, geographical area and other parameters of the patient, surgeon index wise, reporting hospital statistics, and analysis of cases for research purpose are generated.
j. Blood Bank with Bio-Metric and Barcode

The User management basically deals with security through controlling the access to the application & its related data. A user will have access to only Menu & Data for which the user has rights. User management creates mainly users and assigning the entire role to that particular user.
l. Laundry
Linen & Laundry department is responsible for processing of dirty linen and supply of clean linen to various departments. The main activities involved are collection, processing, mending, condemnation of linen, stock management.
m. Transport
Transport module provides efficient control and management of a hospital’s transport orders. Transport department handles all the transport of the Hospital that includes maintaining records of each vehicle, maintaining driver detail. There are different categories, which are maintained by the transport department of hospital.
5.6.3 Administrative
a. Personnel Information System
Module manage and capture all employee oriented activities which include Man Power Planning, Recruitment process, Appointment of candidates, Service Book, Increment and Promotion, ACR, Leave management etc.
b. Finance Management System
Module manage and capture various activities related to Budget, Cash and Fee Management, Contingent Billing, LC Billing, Employee Oriented Billing (TA and DA, LTC
etc.), Payment Process through Compilation as Payment Voucher, Demand Process, Bill Payment, Grants Management, Pay Bill, GPF/CPF, NPS, Loan and Advances, Group Insurance, Service Linked Insurance, Planning and Costing etc.
c. Procurement and Purchase
The Procurement module mainly deals with the procurement and management of stock of various consumable or non‐ consumable items required by the different Departments of the Hospital. The requirements of the items are sent by the various department and stores. Based on the estimated amount of the requirements, the purchase section takes the decision like opening tender, placing the order directly to rate contracted supplier, and the purchase committee purchases the items from the market by surveying or through the government cell. This module covers Generating Purchase Order, Opening Tender, tender evaluations, Acceptance of Tender, Shipment Details and payments terms and conditions.
The advantage of automation of purchase department is that we will get the complete detail of purchase order. Provision for generating reports for those purchase orders for which items have not been issued by the supplier, automatic configurable letter generation etc. At the time of finalizing any item for purchase we can view the amount in that particular purchase head.

6 HMIS Implementation Model
The implementation of HMIS has three main components:
1. Software Development / Customization
2. Hardware Supply, Installation and Commissioning, Support and Maintenance 3. Application Software Support Services like FMS, Operationalization etc.
The entire software coding and development process will be handled by CDAC.
There will Application Software Support Services (ASSS) Teaming Partner who will be supporting in implementation by providing Facility Management Services, Operationalization Services, Project Management Support and Contribute in some of the Application Software related activities.
Again, there will be Hardware and Infrastructure Setup Services (HISS) teaming partner who will be assigned to support supply/procurement process, install and commission the hardware along with infrastructure Upgradation at client location including support and maintenance if required
The main stakeholders involved in HMIS Project Implementation are CDAC and State Department / Hospitals (Deployment End). In view of this, two implementation models are suggested:
Model 1 – Implementation as a Turnkey Project by CDAC
Model 2– Software and Application Software Support Services (ASSS) Teaming partner by CDAC and Hardware & Infrastructure Setup Services (HISS) Teaming Partner by State Department / Hospital

In this model entire HMIS development and implementation at state Department / Hospitals will be taken up by CDAC on turnkey basis. CDAC will empanel ASSS and HISS teaming partners. End to end integration of the project will be the responsibility of CDAC. The implementation model is as follows:
CDAC will select/ empanel the ASSS and HISS teaming partners to provide system integration and application support for HMIS solution
ASSS Teaming Partner empanelled by CDAC shall assist in Requirement Gathering, Facility Management Service, Project Management, Operationalization of Solution, Hand Holding Support, Training, Documentation, System Integration Support, Help Desk Support, Maintaining the Application etc.,
HISS Teaming Partner shall support in Supply / Procurement process, Installation and Commissioning of Hardware Infrastructure and Site Preparation for application deployment at client side.
State Department / Hospital to give the final signoff to CDAC after implementation
6.2 Model -2:- Software, ASSS Teaming Partner by CDAC and HISS Teaming
Partner by State
CDAC will be software development agency which will be assisted by empanelled ASSS Teaming Partner to implement HMIS solution in respective states. States, infect, need to employ HISS Teaming Partner for hardware deployment and infrastructure Upgradation required for solution implementation at hospitals. The implementation model is as follows:
The HMIS application has been developed by CDAC. The application will be customized, configured as per requirement and managed by CDAC. The entire software coding and development part will be handled by CDAC.
The State Government / State designated agency can employ CDAC for application deployment. It is responsibility of the State Government / State designated agency to ensure proper hardware infrastructure and site preparation for application deployment. For this a HISS Teaming Partner can be deployed as per state’s convenience.
ASSS Teaming Partner empanelled by CDAC will assist in Requirement Gathering, Facility Management Service, Project Management, Operationalization of Solution, Hand Holding Support, Training, Documentation, System Integration Support, Help Desk Support, Maintaining the Application etc.,
ASSS Teaming partner will maintain application hosted at SDC or through remote access provided by SDC. Application Management Team at SDC will ensure version control of the application, installation of upgrades and enhancements, Management, Review & documentation of the User Access Policies for the use of HMIS application software, requirement analysis & Impact analysis of requirements in case required.
