Comparison
Filling the OPD is the easy half. The record is the other half.
Appointment apps are good at bookings, and a clinic that only needs a calendar should use one. Trouble starts when the booking app becomes the patient record.
| a booking-only app | Clinicket | |
|---|---|---|
| Appointments | Good. Booking is the whole product. | Appointments, walk-ins and a live token queue, already included. |
| Consultation notes | A free-text field, if any. | Chief complaint, vitals, diagnosis and notes, saved to the visit. |
| Prescriptions | Not modelled. | Digital prescriptions, printed or sent on WhatsApp. |
| Billing | Takes a booking fee, and stops there. | Booking fee, proforma and GST tax invoice from the same visit. |
| Reporting | Bookings and no-shows. | Visits, collections and follow-ups by doctor and by branch. |
Use both, or use one that does both. What does not work is treating a calendar as a clinical record.
