The new version of ‘Yos RMS’ comes with support for various options including ICD-10 codes

Bangalore based Yos Technologies Pvt Ltd (Yos), a Healthcare Software Products and Solutions company, has announced the release of the latest version of its flagship product ‘Yos Record Management System (Yos RMS)’ – a unique Smart Card based solution for managing Hospital Inpatient and Outpatient records.

‘Yos RMS’ allows all the hospital records to be maintained online for better space utilization, enables exchange of data across various locations of the hospital network safely and efficiently and also helps in clinical analysis of data for planning as well as for research. Its light weight architecture and document oriented database keeps resource requirements to minimum while being extremely scalable.

Said Vijaya Verma, Founder & CEO of Yos Technologies, “Hospitals typically need to maintain in-patient files for many years for regulatory reasons. NABH Accreditation requires that hospitals maintain medical records for out-patients also. Ability to retrieve the records in reasonable amount of time to the satisfaction of patients and the doctors / consultants is a major challenge for the hospital if they are being maintained on paper. This version comes with support for various options, including ICD-10 codes, which are a great value-add to hospitals seeking advanced statistical reports”.

The Record Management System developed by Yos has been deployed in more than 30 hospitals, and is a pay-as-you-grow solution that is tuned to the existing processes of the hospitals, while being flexible enough to cater to future changes. It can be offered as hosted or standalone implementations to suit the level of capital expenditures of hospitals.

“The easy to implement ‘Yos RMS’ value proposition to hospitals includes improved efficiency, improved quality of care, better enablement of clinical  research, E-connectivity across departments and minimum infrastructure requirements. Most importantly, Yos also offers digitization services where needed – this enables gradual adoption of the solution, with doctors having the choice of continuing their current (writing on paper) process initially, with incremental movement to viewing records online and then making entries online as their confidence increases.” added Vijaya Verma.

The unique features of the ‘Yos RMS’ are:

  • Smartcard as the Hospital ID card, with a linked Personal Health Account created for each patient.
  • Entire IP hospitalization file (including discharge summary, doctor notes, nurse notes, ICD codes and other details) are appropriately tagged and uploaded into the server.
  • Current consultation details (OP) are updated into the server using browser based customized forms (different forms for different specialties such as Pregnancy, Oncology, Immunology, Pediatrics, etc), with reminders for next-visit, medicine intake, lab tests, etc
  • During subsequent visits, the doctors / administrative personnel use the patients’ Smart Card to retrieve their previous consultation records. Additional information is fetched from the Personal Health Account of the patient as needed.  
  • Once these records are updated into the server, relevant information will also be updated into patient’s Smart-Card, which in effect becomes the Hospital file for the patient. 
  • In addition, the Emergency Care information on the card enables the patient to get Emergency care services at any of the Yos connected hospitals.
