Hospital information system in Sri Lanka
We offer HIS software for Sri Lanka care teams to manage visits, bills and patient records, with tools for the daily work of clinics and hospitals.
Best fit in Sri Lanka
A private hospital, medical centre or clinic in Sri Lanka, including a channelling centre. A consultant appointment, a laboratory result and a pharmacy bill each tell part of the patient’s story, and the team needs the clinical history as well as the record of services provided when the patient returns.
The confirmed workflow, then the questions to assess
- Can be reviewed now: Care appointments, registration, clinical notes, prescribing and billing in the selected workflow. Clinics Pro adds laboratory, radiology and claims records.
- Consultant sessions: For a channelling centre, the consultant-session and payment requirements are reviewed against the available appointment workflow. No specialist channelling integration is claimed.
- National connections: No Sri Lankan national EHR connection, insurer portal adapter or government-system integration is claimed.
- Hosting: Hosting location and support access are agreed before patient information is loaded. NextHealth uses an in-country cloud region wherever regulation requires it. No local environment is stated as provisioned.
- Interface language: The current product interface is English. Sinhala and Tamil interfaces is not claimed.
The local workflow
The Private Health Services Regulatory Council oversees registration under the Private Medical Institutions (Registration) Act. Sri Lanka’s Ministry of Health has also published a Digital Health Blueprint. These establish relevant regulatory and national programme context, but neither makes a vendor’s software approved or connected to a national exchange.
The Personal Data Protection Act, as amended, belongs in your implementation review. Confirm the provisions and commencement arrangements applicable to your organisation, along with notices, access, processing contracts and any transfer conditions.
Confirm before scoping
- How do consultant sessions, fees and payments work in your centre?
- Do you need Sinhala or Tamil for staff or patient documents?
- Which insurer or corporate billing requirements apply?
- Which data migration and hosting arrangements apply?
Where the products fit
NXH Care brings appointments, registration, clinical notes, prescribing and billing into the selected workflow. Hospitals adds inpatient and nursing work. NXH Engage supports booking, packages, memberships and patient relationships where a private clinic needs those workflows. NXH Flow provides document versions, policy approvals, staff credentials, incident investigations and complaints. Those records help your team examine its work, without claiming a verified PHSRC requirements mapping or automatic regulatory submission.
Flow Quality indicators is still being completed. Review its availability separately before a rollout depends on it.
A local demo agenda
- A sample visit, from registration to the signed consultation note.
- A diagnostic result and the bill your team needs to explain.
- Your consultant-session arrangement, reviewed against the available appointment workflow.
- Your language, insurer or corporate billing, migration and hosting requirements.

8 modules most relevant to Sri Lanka
-
Patient Registration Create a usable patient record with guided registration, validation before saving and support for duplicate prevention. Reception can find returning patients before creating another record and capture the information needed by the teams involved in care. Included in every Care plan, this module establishes the patient identity that the visit depends on. Included in Care Clinics, Care Clinics Pro and Care Hospitals. Explore -
Scheduling & Appointments Book the clinician, room and time against availability from the doctor’s sessions. NXH Care supports double-booking prevention and drag-and-drop rescheduling, helping reception manage appointments in the clinical workflow. Use the module to review how your team offers appointments and handles changes, with patient-facing access considered separately through the Patient portal add-on. Included in all three Care plans. Explore -
Clinical Documentation & EMR Keep vitals, allergies, history and clinical notes together in the consultation workspace. NXH Care provides structured fields, templates, ICD-10 and CPT lookup, and optional dictation transcribed on the customer’s own infrastructure. The treating doctor signs the note, which is then frozen, and any later change is a signed addendum linked to the original. Included in all three Care plans. Explore -
Laboratory Management Follow each specimen from collection to a verified result. NXH Care tracks specimens by barcode, checks values against reference ranges, flags abnormal and critical results and alerts the ordering clinician. A different authorised person verifies every result before release, and a rejected quality control run holds release. Analyser results can arrive by HL7 and pass the same checks. Included in Care Clinics Pro and Care Hospitals. Included in Care Clinics Pro and Care Hospitals; available as an add-on to Care Clinics. Explore -
Radiology & Imaging Connect imaging requests, studies and radiologist reports with the patient visit. NXH Care records the study, holds image and DICOM files with a browser viewer, and shows the signed impression on the encounter. It does not exchange DICOM with modalities or a PACS and does not record radiation dose, so scope any equipment connection with the team before agreement. Included in Care Clinics Pro and Care Hospitals; available as an add-on to Care Clinics. Explore -
Billing & Charge Capture Connect recorded care with its financial outcome. When a consultation is signed, NXH Care opens a draft bill and composes charges from procedures, laboratory, radiology and dispensed medication, priced from the service catalogue or the payer’s tariff. The total is divided between insurer and patient, and discounts, refunds and adjustments are limited to permitted roles and audited. Included in all three Care plans; insurance claim processing is separately licensed. Explore -
Medical Records Management Follow completion, access and release of the medical record. NXH Care lists incomplete records against the responsible clinician, logs views of patient records, runs release of information requests with a disclosure log, and asks for a reason before a chart is opened outside the care team. A different person reviews that access. Retention and disclosure decisions stay with your organisation. Included in all three Care plans. Explore
-
Health Data Exchange Send clinical information to the exchange your regulator runs and keep the response. NXH Care has adapters for Malaffi and Riayati over HL7 v2.5.1 and for NABIDH over FHIR R4, with an exchange monitor showing each exchange from queued to acknowledged or failed. A facility is connected only after its pack, licence, credentials and onboarding are agreed. Available with any Care plan.

Common questions
-
Care offers clinic and hospital plans covering clinical records and billing, with diagnostics and inpatient workflows in the relevant plans. Review your services, payment arrangements and implementation requirements against a demonstration before selecting the scope.
-
The available appointment workflow can be reviewed for the centre’s needs. Consultant sessions, fee arrangements and external channelling-platform connections require specific assessment; no specialist local channelling adapter is claimed.
-
No national EHR or exchange connection is claimed. Care’s general exchange capability provides a starting point for technical scoping, but a local connection needs agreed specifications, testing and activation evidence.
-
No. Flow provides selected operational records, such as policies, credentials and incident evidence. The facility remains responsible for its registration and applicable requirements, and a complete PHSRC mapping is not claimed.
-
Confirm the hosting location, support access and any transfer arrangements before implementation. NextHealth uses an in-country cloud region wherever regulation requires it; no specific Sri Lankan cloud environment is asserted as already provisioned.
-
The current product interface is English. Sinhala and Tamil interfaces are not claimed. Review staff language needs, patient-facing documents and training requirements during scoping before deciding whether the available workflow meets your needs.
