Open Hospital

Open Hospital is an open source hospital management and electronic medical records system created to help healthcare facilities, especially in low‑resource settings, organise clinical and administrative workflows on a single platform without costly licensing fees. It covers core functions like patient registration, outpatient and inpatient management, basic scheduling, clinical recording, prescription and pharmacy tracking, billing and reporting, and its open source nature means hospitals and clinics can install, use, and adapt the software to their needs without major upfront software costs, which makes it particularly appealing for small hospitals, community health centres, and nonprofit healthcare projects. Because it is web‑based and designed to be lightweight, it can run on modest hardware and networks, helping facilities with limited IT infrastructure maintain digital patient records and reduce reliance on paper, and it also supports essential public health reporting and statistics that administrators can use to monitor service delivery and key clinical metrics.
