Electronic Medical Records
EMR Software for Doctors in Pakistan
Replace the paper chart with a structured electronic medical record: diagnoses, prescriptions, lab results and treatment plans captured during the consultation, not written up afterwards.
What this replaces
Handwritten prescriptions get misread
Illegible handwriting is a genuine safety problem at the pharmacy counter, and it is worse when the drug name is unfamiliar and the patient cannot read English.
The chart is only where the paper is
A doctor consulting at a second location in the evening simply does not have the morning’s file, so the same questions get asked again.
Nothing is analysable
Paper records cannot answer basic practice questions — how many patients on a given treatment, which diagnoses are rising, which follow-ups were never completed.
What SehatDoc does
Structured digital charting
Capture presenting complaint, examination, diagnosis and plan in a consistent structure, so records stay comparable between visits and between doctors.
E-prescriptions with Roman Urdu dosage
Prescribe from a medicine directory and print dosage instructions in Roman Urdu — the form most Pakistani patients can actually read and follow at home.
Prescription templates
Save the regimens you prescribe repeatedly and apply them in one action, which is where most of the time saving in an EMR actually comes from.
Lab requests and results in the chart
Raise lab requests from the consultation and have results return to the same patient record rather than arriving as loose printouts.
Verifiable prescriptions
Each prescription carries a verification link and QR code so a pharmacy can confirm it is genuine and unaltered.
Encrypted and access-controlled
Records are encrypted with role-based access, and every account is individual, so access is auditable and revocable.
How it works
- 1
Open the patient
Prior visits, prescriptions and results load with the record.
- 2
Chart during the consultation
Structured fields keep it fast enough to complete in the room.
- 3
Prescribe from templates
Apply a saved regimen, adjust, and print with Roman Urdu instructions.
- 4
Order and receive tests
Lab requests raised from the chart return results to the same record.
Frequently asked questions
- What is the difference between EMR and EHR?
- An EMR is the clinical record held by one practice; an EHR is designed to be shared across multiple providers. In Pakistani practice the terms are used interchangeably, and SehatDoc functions as a practice-level EMR with prescriptions that can be verified externally.
- Can prescriptions be printed in Urdu?
- Dosage instructions can be printed in Roman Urdu — Urdu written in the Latin alphabet — which is widely readable in Pakistan and avoids the rendering problems that Urdu script causes on ordinary clinic printers.
- Is SehatDoc HIPAA compliant?
- SehatDoc is built to HIPAA-aligned security practices: encryption of patient data, role-based access control and audit logging. Details of how this is implemented are set out on the HIPAA page.
- How long does it take a doctor to switch from paper?
- Most doctors are charting in SehatDoc on the first day. The usual approach is to run the EMR for new visits immediately and let historical paper files retire naturally as patients return rather than attempting a bulk back-entry.
