Patient Records

Everything about this patient, in the order it happened.

One chronological record assembled from the systems a hospital already runs, rather than a replacement for any of them.

What it does

In the terms a clinician would use.

  • Merges admissions, consultations, investigations and prescriptions into a single timeline that can be read end to end.
  • Keeps the source system's identifier on every entry, so any item can be traced back to the record it came from.
  • Speaks FHIR R4 in both directions: CBS is a participant in a hospital's data estate, not a destination for it.
  • Holds identifiers and clinical free text encrypted at the field level, so a database dump is not a breach of the record.
What it will not do

It is not a system of record and does not try to become one. The hospital's HIS stays authoritative; CBS reads from it and writes back to it. A hospital that stops using CBS keeps its data where it always was.

Where the data comes from

  • HL7 v2 feeds from existing hospital systems
  • FHIR R4 resources over the standard REST API
  • Bulk import from CSV for a first migration
Where you would use it

The four modules this runs underneath.

CBS Dock The hospital management system

The hospital management system: registration, beds, theatre, billing, the laboratory and imaging, the store, the roster, doctor onboarding, staff letters and the audit trail — everything that belongs to the establishment rather than to one clinician or one patient.

Features
CBS Medico The doctor's daily tool

The doctor's own tool for the day's events, for communication with the hospital, the care team and the patient, and for AI-assisted consultation — the queue, the consultation, the prescription, investigations and their results, the ward round, the discharge narrative and the earnings statement, carried across every establishment they practise at.

Features
CBS Care The patient, the family, the device

The patient's own door: appointments, medicines, the reports and bills the hospital has released to them, the people looking after them, and the check-in, fall and SOS from the device at home.

Features
CBS Counter The dispensary and its registers

The dispensary — medicines, surgicals and other consumables: the sale, dispensing against a prescription, stock in and out, expiry, the credit book, the day book and the statutory registers a drug inspector asks for.

Features
CBS Attendant The bedside device, patent pending

The bedside device for a patient at home or on a ward. When it raises an alarm (SOS, a fall, the call bell, a missed medicine and more), it rings loud on the phone or computer of each person who follows it.

Features
CBS Lab The laboratory, order to report

The laboratory, from the order to the signed report: the test menu and orders, bedside and home collection, a second person's verification of every value, daily quality control, reagent lots with their expiry, samples sent to an outside laboratory, and results reaching the doctor in Medico and the patient in Care.
