Now, one would not have to stand in long queues for getting appointments with doctors in the government hospitals. Appointments can be sought through Online Registration System (ORS).
Online Registration System (ORS) is a framework to link various hospitals across the country for Aadhaar based online registration and appointment system, where counter based OPD registration and appointment system through Hospital Management Information System (HMIS) has been digitalized. The application has been hosted on the cloud services of NIC. Portal facilitates online appointments with various departments of different Hospitals using eKYC data of Aadhaar number, if patient's mobile number is registered with UIDAI. And in case mobile number is not registered with UIDAI it uses patient's name.
The portal not only helps in appointments of doctors but also helps with lab reports and blood availability.
Hospitals which are not on this platform can join in. As per the info on portal "Hospitals can come on board this platform and provide their appointment slots for online booking by patients. The system facilitates Hospitals to easily manage their registration and appointment process and monitor the flow of patients."
