Hippocrates HIS

The Hospital Information System (HIS) is designed to automate the activities related to the diagnosis and treatment of patients in medical institutions for hospital care, covering all hospital units.


The Hospital Information System was developed in complying with the following basic requirements:

A patient-oriented system creates an electronic file (Electronical Patient Record) of each patient of the hospital through a chronological record of the data related to their diagnosis and treatment in it, including the data for each hospital service.
It supports the work of the entire hospital staff (doctors, nurses, secretaries, hospital management).


Enables effective management of the patient flow and the provision of quality medical services.


The Hospital Information System covers all data related to the treatment of patients under contract with the National Health Insurance Fund, financed by the Ministry of Health or paid by a voluntary health insurance fund. It ensures the receipt of all necessary reports for NHIF and Ministry of Health (monthly and annual), NSI and other external organizations.


The Hospital Information System includes technological tools for integration with other information systems based on HL7 and XML standard.


The encoding of the ICD10 diagnoses and the ICD-9 CM procedures is supported, providing an opportunity for their easy retrieval and input.


The Hospital Information System includes software tools and technology enabling the integration of HIS with other information systems. Integrations have been implemented with:
Warehouse management and accounting systems Pantheon and Ajur-L5 – transfer of overall costs for medicines and supplies spent on Out? and data on final costs of each hospital unit; calculating the cost of patient treatment; data transfer for issued medication lists by patients.


Laboratory Information Systems (LIS) iLAB and Synevo – sending an HL7 message to the LIS containing patient identification data and data for the prescribed test; receiving an HL7 message from the LIS containing the result of the prescribed test performed.


Siemens’ PACS – sending HL7 messages to PACS for the appointment or planning of an imaging containing patient identification data and data on the performed prescription (Back-end integration); sending HL7 messages from SRUI in the execution of the assignment and receipt of the image containing the result of the prescribed test performed and identification of the obtained image (Front-end integration).


Hippocrates S – exchange of patient demographic data between the two systems; check of current hospital treatment of a patient who wishes to be examined by a doctor using Hippocrates S; sending of data on medical history, objective condition, diagnosis and therapy from the ambulatory sheet recorded in the Hippocrates S.
