Manage your inpatient department without manual registers or spreadsheets. Lifeline HMS covers ward setup, bed allocation, real-time occupancy, automatic room charging and consolidated discharge billing, all connected to your OPD and pharmacy records.

IPD Management Features
From admission to discharge, every step of inpatient care managed in one system.

1
Ward Setup and Management

Create and configure wards by type such as general, surgical, maternity or ICU. Manage ward details, capacity and assigned staff from one screen.

2
Room Creation and Room Types

Define room types with different charges such as private, semi-private or general ward. Set up rooms within each ward and configure their billing rates.

3
Bed Allocation and Availability

Assign beds to admitted patients instantly. See which beds are occupied, available or under maintenance across every ward in real time.

4
Occupancy Tracking

Monitor bed and ward occupancy at a glance from the IPD dashboard. Plan admissions, transfers and discharges with full visibility of current capacity.

5
Room and Nightly Charges

Room charges accrue automatically based on the room type and duration of stay. No manual calculation needed; the bill builds as the patient stays.

6
Admission and Discharge Workflow

Manage the full inpatient journey including admission, ward transfer, service charges, discharge summary and final bill, through a clean step-by-step workflow.

7
Ward, Room and Bed Summary Screens

Dedicated summary screens give nursing and admin staff a live view of ward occupancy, patient lists and bed status without navigating multiple reports.

No More Manual Bed Registers

Hospitals that manage beds on paper or spreadsheets routinely deal with double allocations, incorrect occupancy counts and billing disputes over room charges. Lifeline HMS replaces the manual register with a live digital system. The bed register, the patient record and the billing system are always in sync. Nursing staff see the live ward view, finance sees the accrued charges and administration sees the occupancy trend.
