Technoclinics- Upcoming scenario in India

Medical industry in India is proud to have adopted the latest medical equipments in
every specialization and has achieved tremendous results in terms of rapid and effective
treatment. The benefits that the Indian IT sector has made in the global village the past
15 years, are now being extended to the Indian Healthcare industry too!
Taking advantage of these some clinics are
transforming into “technoclinics” by smartly using
technology and software in their practice. Dr. Ankit
Khanna (MDS) at Pune, who uses a Blackberry to
track his online appointments says, “Advances in
technology have definitely changed today’s
scenario in the dental practice. Earlier for
root canal treatments, X-rays taken were
on a thin film which gave information only
about pathology and cavity. But with the
Digital X-ray, it is now possible to know the
bone density, height, thickness along with
the conventional pathological details and
cavity of the teeth.”
Moreover, the paper-based records are now shaping into Electronic Medical Records
storing all the patient details along with the medical history and previous visits.
Searching a patient record barely takes seconds and all the information is available at
fingertips. Dr. Khanna cites out the benefits of EMR, “With EMR, the medical
records are a proof which reduces the conflicts between doctor and
patient. If a patient visits two dentists for treatment, with the software
now it is easy to show the patient which treatment he came for to avoid
the confusion.” Dr. Khanna confides in software stating that he can now provide
warranty with the treatment as he successfully manages and tracks the patient records
strengthening the patient-doctor relationship.
Most of the clinics are still maintaining the paper based records which eventually lead
to frustration and chaos. There are some clinics where the doctors prescribe medicines
on a follow up visit memorising the patient history which proves dangerous for the
patient as well as the doctor! Imagine how much better it would be if the
doctor knew the patient history and accordingly prescribed the
medicines? That’s where the software plays the role and reduces the risks
of memory-based treatment.

The doctors of “technoclinics” are enjoying their practice because they only have to
concentrate on proper diagnosis and treatment whereas the entire clinic administration
is managed by the software. Within the coming years, its predicted that the majority of
clinics will resort to software, thus improving their practice, benefit in terms of hassle-
free practice, improved profits, time and money savings and also building stronger
patient relationships. This revolution is what awaits the healthcare sector in India.
