Getting started
Register the first patient
A walkthrough of patient registration with DPDP consent capture.
Open the patient registration form
Click Patients in the sidebar, then + New patient. The form opens above the list.
Fill in the required fields
- Full name — as the patient wants it on records and prescriptions.
- Phone — Indian format with country code (e.g. +91 90000 00000).
- Gender — Male / Female / Other.
- Age — optional but recommended.
Capture DPDP consent
The consent checkbox is required by the DPDP Act 2023. Read the consent text aloud (or hand the patient a printout) before ticking it. If the patient is under 18, the guardian section appears automatically — capture the guardian's name and relation.
Save
UHID is generated automatically (e.g. UHID-2026-00042). The patient now appears in the search and can be booked into an appointment or added to the live queue.
