Healthcare institutions across Kenya—whether in Nairobi, Eldoret, Kisumu, Nakuru, or Mombasa—are increasingly facing operational challenges. Long queues, delayed services, missing patient files, billing errors, data breaches, and communication inefficiencies create daily frustrations for patients and healthcare staff alike.

Key Features of Vomer — Explained in Detail

Below are the major features of Vomer, presented with examples to help hospitals picture the real-world benefits.

---

1. User-Friendly Experience

A hospital system should never slow down your staff. Vomer features an intuitive interface that is simple enough for new staff to learn quickly and powerful enough for specialists to use daily.

What this looks like:

• Nurses can update vitals without navigating complex menus
• Doctors can access patient history in seconds
• Cashiers can complete billing with fewer clicks
• Admins can customize the system for different departments

A user-friendly design means fewer errors, faster service, and a smoother workflow for everyone.

---

2. Accounting System With Multiple Payment Options

Kenyan hospitals often struggle with reconciling payments from MPESA, insurance, cash, and waivers. Vomer automates and simplifies this.

Supported payment methods:

• MPESA Paybill & Till
• NHIF & private insurance
• Cash
• Waivers
• Custom payment categories

Example:

A patient arrives at the radiology department needing a CT scan.
The cashier selects the procedure, applies an insurance cover, and the system automatically calculates the patient’s remaining co-pay. If needed, the remainder is paid via MPESA directly from the interface.

Accurate. Traceable. Fast.

3. Queue Management With Audio Calling

Long queues and confusion at hospital waiting areas frustrate patients and overload staff.

Vomer’s queue system allows:

• orderly queue generation
• audio calling of patient names
• digital display boards
• remote queue booking from home

Example:

A patient heading to the ENT clinic checks in from home and receives a queue number. They only arrive when their turn is close—reducing congestion and making care more convenient.

---

4. Enterprise-Grade Data Security

Healthcare data is sensitive. Vomer ensures that only authorized staff can access specific information, and all communication is encrypted.

Benefits:

• Avoid unauthorized access to patient files
• Protect data during transmission
• Comply with privacy and regulatory standards
• Reduce risk of data loss

This builds patient trust and protects hospitals from legal and ethical risks.

---

5. Data Statistics & Analytics

With Vomer, hospitals can convert their data into powerful insights for planning, reporting, and performance improvement.

Examples of analytics:

• daily patient volume
• most requested services
• peak hours
• doctor workload distribution
• revenue breakdown by department
• medicine consumption patterns

Hospital leaders can make smarter decisions based on real-time evidence, not guesswork.

---

6. Automatic Patient Identification

Mistakes in patient identity are dangerous. Vomer eliminates this risk through automated identification tools.

What hospitals can do:

• print patient ID tags
• scan identifiers for instant record retrieval
• prevent accidental mismatches during care

For example, a lab technician scanning a barcode can instantly confirm the patient before running tests, reducing errors significantly.

---

7. Network Reliability — Even With Unstable Internet

Many Kenyan hospitals experience network interruptions. Vomer is designed to keep essential services running even with fluctuating connectivity.

Meaning:

• No service disruption
• Staff can continue working offline
• Data automatically syncs when the network stabilizes

This makes it ideal for county hospitals, rural clinics, and high-traffic private hospitals.

---

8. Patient Communication Made Easy

Hospitals can reach patients instantly through automated notifications.

You can:

• send prescriptions via SMS or email
• notify patients about upcoming procedures
• remind them about follow-up visits
• share health tips regularly

Example:

A diabetic patient finishes a consultation. The doctor updates the prescription, and Vomer automatically sends it to the patient’s phone—no more lost papers.
