“…Health Management Information Systems (HMIS) is defined as "an information system especially designed to assist in the management and planning of health programs, as opposed to delivery of care" [ 1 ]. HMIS, however, is a term used to describe a comprehensive, integrated information system designed to manage all aspects of a hospital's operation, including medical, administrative, financial, and legal issues and the corresponding processing of services [ 2 , 3 ]. The various information systems used in hospitals can be classified as integrated or modular systems.…”

BackgroundHealth Management Information Systems (HMIS) are being adopted increasingly in tertiary hospitals in developing countries like Pakistan, with the aim of improving physician and patient convenience. However, the perception of healthcare professionals regarding HMIS should be thoroughly assessed in order to achieve effective utilization and implementation of this system. ObjectiveTo assess the perception of physicians regarding the newly implemented HMIS in a tertiary setting hospital in Pakistan. Materials and methodsA cross-sectional study was conducted in all the departments of Ghurki Trust Teaching Hospital (GTTH), Lahore. Total 145 physicians of varying specialty units, fulfilling the inclusion and exclusion criteria, were included and data were collected over a span of six months between July 2020 and December 2020. Data was collected by using a structured questionnaire. The SPSS software version 22 was used for data analysis. Results are presented in the form of frequencies and tables. ResultsThe sample population consisted of 80 males (55.2%) and 65 females (44.8%), with the majority of the respondents having 1-5 years of clinical experience. Of the total, 61.4% (n = 89) knew about the term HMIS, while 71.7% (n = 104) of participants responded that no formal training was provided to them before the implementation of HMIS. Overall, 77.9% of respondents agreed that formal training should have been conducted before the implementation of this system. In total, 77.2% of respondents considered the ease to review patients' history (ERPH) as the biggest advantage of HMIS, while 54.5% considered being paper-free (PF), and 53.1% considered facilitation of data analysis (FDA) as the next two major advantages. As for the disadvantages, 75.9% of respondents considered HMIS to be more time-consuming (TC) and 57.2% considered it to be a hindrance to smooth running (HSR) of clinical work in case of overloading of patients. ConclusionsWhile implementation of HMIS was found to have significant advantages in the opinion of physicians, such as ease in reviewing patients' medical records, data analysis, and providing paperless patient care, it should nevertheless be preceded by formal training of all physicians regarding its use. Many physicians consider HMIS to be more TC, especially in circumstances where the patient load is overwhelming.

Nowadays Indian Health Governance focuses on patient treatment as its key success factors with Hospital administrative and measures the quality of services of a hospital by adopting IT Technology. Health management has brought many enhancements through IT Technology for patient-centric that have a positive impact on the patient experience in hospitals as well as taking administrative decisions based on health indicators. Maharashtra Public Health Department through CDAC Noida developed and run its own e-Sushrut Hospital Management Information System. CDAC's e-Sushrut HMIS has integrated computerized clinical information system for improved hospital administration management system and patient health management. This paper is introduced adapting Mobile Technology, to design Android-based e-Sushrut Hospital Management information system easy to use and user-friendly. We here propose to develop an application where a patient can book an appointment with the authenticated secure payment process, track health records, download, and view investigation reports as well as Health Indicators which helps hospital administration to take decisions and facilitate the patient in a most efficient manner. The e-Sushrut mobile application is implemented by Java, providing the REST API and Android studio. Server uses JavaEE three-tier architecture.

Background and objective: There is a paucity of reliable hospital data and available information for planning and management of health services in India. Hence, the Government of Haryana launched e-Upchaar, a Hospital Management Information System (HMIS) in the public health facilities of the state. A study was conducted to give insight into the design, development and implementation of HMIS for public health facilities, capable of meeting futuristic health demands of Haryana state and the introduction of real-time reporting, data analytics for evidence-based rational decision making. Methods: A descriptive study (August-October 2019) was conducted in the state of Haryana, India on implementation of HMIS (2015-2019). Desk reviews and interviews were conducted and the data from back-end of the application was explored. Integration of an external application by the Government of India's Ministry of Health initiative 'Mera Aspataal' with e-Upchaar was also reviewed. The data extracted from the database was saved in Excel 2010 for descriptive analysis. Results: A unique health ID (UHID) was created for every patient registered in e-Upchaar. Patients (80 lakhs) and EMRs (70 lakhs) created untill 2019. Registration time (1 minute), follow up visits (15 sec), billing (2 minutes) and diagnostic reports' availability on the same day. This resulted in a significant reduction in operational costs; savings due to non-printing of X-ray films in 22 facilities amounted to 13 million INR. Conclusion: e-Upchaar is playing a pivotal role towards achieving the quality standards for effective health care delivery in Haryana. It has improved transparency and integrity in hospital operations through accurate inventory management; and brought improvement in patients' experience.
