Inpatient Admission (IPD)

AndroHealth manages the full inpatient (IPD) journey — from an admission request and bed reservation, through admission, consent, deposits and billing, to discharge. This guide walks the admission flow end to end.

Admission Request List

Go to IPD → Admission to open the Admission Request List. Each request offers a set of actions — reserve a bed, view details, sign consent, admit, or cancel.

Reserve a ward, bed, or room

From a request, reserve a ward bed or room for the patient. Only available (active, non-maintenance) beds appear for selection.

Review the request & capture consent

Open View Details to review the request, then capture the admission consent — using the same signing options as patient consent (e-sign, Sign It, or print-and-scan).

Complete admission details

Open the case to add the full IPD admission details — admitting provider, ward/bed, diagnosis, and the other clinical and administrative fields for the stay.

Admit the patient

You can admit a patient two ways:

• Direct admission from the request list — select the patient and continue to the Add Admission screen.
• Direct admission from the patient profile — start the admission straight from the patient's profile.

Manage admitted patients

The Admitted List shows every admitted patient. From here you can modify demographics or admission details, request a deposit, view billing, print, and start discharge.

Use Deposit Request to collect an advance against the stay, and Billing details to review charges.

Cancel admission & discharge

To end the stay, open the Discharge Summary from the admitted patient. You can also print the admission record.
