# 9 Questions to Ask Before You Buy Hospital Software

Category: Practice Management · Author: Antony Dick, Founder & CEO · Reading time: 5 min read

A hospital software demo is staged by the vendor, so bring your own script. These nine questions cover the stay, the bill, your data and the price, with the answer to listen for in each.

A demo is staged by the vendor. These nine questions put you in charge. Put the answers in writing afterwards.

## The stay

1. **Take my sample patient from desk to discharge** Listen for one tool and no re-keying.
2. **Show me the bed board and a bed being cleaned** Listen for states you recognise.
3. **Show me what is due on the ward this shift** Listen for tasks by patient, late ones flagged.

## The bill

1. **Bill a package, a deposit and a room change** Listen for totals that stay right.
2. **Order a medicine and a test for the admitted patient** Listen for both on the inpatient bill.
3. **Discharge with an unsigned summary and an unpaid balance** Listen for a refusal.

## Your data and your money

1. **What is the yearly total for my beds, and what is not in it?** CuraVerto HMS is ₹10,000 per sanctioned bed per year.
2. **What will it be at the first renewal?** A written cap, not "we will review".
3. **How do I get my data out?** A named format and process.

## Ask us the hard ones too

> **Insurance, TPA, ABDM or an integration?.** Ask for it live in our demo as well.

## Frequently asked questions

### What should I ask in a hospital management software demo?

Ask the vendor to take your sample patient from outpatient desk to discharge, show the bed board, bill a package with a deposit and a room change, order a medicine and test onto the inpatient bill, attempt an unsigned discharge, and state the yearly price, exclusions, renewal terms and how you export your data.

### How do I compare hospital software demos fairly?

Use the same script and the same sample patient with every vendor, then compare the yearly total for your sanctioned beds, including setup and hosting, and put the answers in writing.

### Can CuraVerto HMS refuse a discharge without a signed summary?

Yes. A routine discharge expects a signed discharge summary and a settled final bill, and an override is a deliberate act by an authorised person.
