Management of the Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital has revealed that the hospital will from next month run on a paperless and cashless system for patient satisfaction.
According to Board Chairman of the facility, Bernard Okoe Boye, the move will provide timely and improved quality care of the patients to avoid any kind of duplication.
He added that the digitisation of the premier health facility will reduce leakages and improve accountability.
“Patients do not have to wait for hours before they get their folders...We will be starting at the Polyclinic from and all the necessary infrastructure have been put in place.
“From October, we do not expect to see patients walking around with any folders as all their information will be in the system. If they want medication, they walk straight to the pharmacy where all their data will be already,” he told Joy News.
The Ledzekuku MP believes this will stop some of the leakages where patients start from the Hospital and are carried by others.
Mr Okoe Boye said Korle-Bu is connecting to the information and data centre so they have lots of data to do proper researchers since it is also a teaching hospital.
