Hospital Management System for Uganda — SCORE-HMS

SCORE-HMS unifies every department of your hospital — OPD, IPD, lab, radiology, pharmacy, billing and HR — in one cloud system designed for Ugandan hospitals.

Why Uganda healthcare facilities choose SCORE

A hospital management system built for Uganda

SCORE-HMS unifies every department of a Ugandan hospital — registration, OPD, IPD, laboratory, radiology, pharmacy, theatre, ward management, billing, insurance, HR and reporting — in one cloud platform. It is designed for facilities ranging from 20-bed mission hospitals to 200-bed multi-specialty centres, and supports multi-branch hospital networks with consolidated reporting. SCORE-HMS replaces the patchwork of paper files, Excel sheets and disconnected modules that cost Ugandan hospitals time, revenue and patient trust every day.

Modules that work together end-to-end

Every module talks to every other module. A patient registered at OPD has the same record in IPD, the lab, radiology and the pharmacy. A test ordered by a doctor appears immediately in the lab queue and the bill. Drugs dispensed from the hospital pharmacy deduct from inventory and post to the patient's account in real time. Insurance claims are filed from the same workflow that captured the visit, with full documentation attached. The result is a hospital that runs on one set of numbers, not five.

Designed for insurance and corporate billing

Most Ugandan hospitals serve a mix of cash, insurance and corporate accounts. SCORE-HMS handles all three in a single ledger. Each insurer or corporate has its own pricing schedule, claim form and approval workflow. Claims are tracked from submission through payment, with ageing reports that surface stuck claims early. Patient statements consolidate cash and insurance components clearly.

Phased deployment that ships value in weeks

We do not expect a hospital to switch on every module overnight. The standard SCORE-HMS rollout is phased: OPD and billing first (week 1–2), pharmacy and stores (week 2–3), lab and radiology (week 3–4), then IPD, ward management and reporting (week 4–6). Each phase is trained, tested and signed off before the next begins. A dedicated Uganda-based implementation manager runs the project and remains on call after go-live.

Hospital Management System in Uganda — FAQs

What is the best hospital management system in Uganda?

SCORE-HMS is purpose-built for Ugandan hospitals — cloud-based, affordable at $150 per branch per month, with local implementation and 24/7 support.

Can SCORE-HMS handle multi-branch hospitals?

Yes. SCORE-HMS supports hospital networks and multi-branch deployments with consolidated reporting.

Does it include EMR and laboratory modules?

Yes. EMR, laboratory, radiology, pharmacy, ward management and billing are all included in SCORE-HMS.

Is my data secure on SCORE?

Yes. SCORE uses AES-256 encryption at rest and TLS 1.2+ in transit, with daily encrypted backups, role-based access, and a complete audit trail on every change. Our hosting infrastructure is monitored 24/7 with active failover.

Is SCORE aligned with patient data protection rules?

Yes. SCORE follows HIPAA-equivalent principles for patient data — minimum-necessary access, encryption, consent capture, and audit logging — and aligns with Uganda's Data Protection and Privacy Act, 2019.

How long does training and onboarding take?

Most single-shop pharmacies are live within 3–5 working days. Multi-branch pharmacies and clinics typically take 1–2 weeks. SCORE-HMS hospital deployments run 2–4 weeks per phase. A dedicated Uganda-based onboarding manager runs every project.

Can you migrate data from my current system?

Yes. We migrate product master data, supplier lists, opening stock, customers and historical sales from spreadsheets or other pharmacy/clinic/hospital systems. Migration is included in onboarding.

Can I run multiple branches on one account?

Yes. SCORE is multi-branch from day one. Add branches in minutes, transfer stock between them, set per-branch pricing and view consolidated reports.

What happens if the internet goes down at my branch?

SCORE is optimised for low and intermittent bandwidth. Brief drops do not interrupt a checkout already in progress, and your data syncs automatically when the connection returns. We target 99.9% platform uptime.
