IPD Management System: Admissions, Beds, Rounds and Discharge
An IPD management system manages admitted patients from admission to discharge: bed allocation, nursing vitals, doctor rounds, daily charges, medicines, investigations and the final bill. It shows live bed occupancy, prevents two patients being assigned one bed and makes sure every day of the stay is billed.
Inpatient care generates the highest revenue per patient and the most scattered paperwork. IPD software keeps it in one place.
In QureSetu, an admission continues the patient record from OPD, so history, orders and results are already there.
This is one part of a connected hospital management system.

The IPD workflow
- Admit from OPD or emergency; the record carries over.
- Allocate a bed from the live bed board; the bed is locked.
- Nurses chart vitals; doctors round and order.
- Charges accrue through the stay.
- Discharge, bill and release the bed.

Frequently asked questions
How does IPD software prevent double-booking of beds?
It locks a bed at the moment of allocation, so a second user attempting to assign the same bed is blocked and shown its current status.
Can IPD billing be ready at discharge?
Yes. When charges accrue during the stay, the bill is already assembled when the doctor advises discharge.
