Staff & Roles

Hospital Staff Management Software: Roles, Permissions and Logins

Sehat Nxt's hospital staff management software gives every person on the team their own login and only the screens they need. The owner adds doctors, receptionists, coordinators, nurses, billing, lab and radiology staff, and turns modules on or off for each person. Staff chat keeps the team in touch inside the software, and staff HR covers attendance, leave and payroll.

  • A login for each role

    Doctor, owner, admin, receptionist, coordinator, nurse, billing and lab logins, each with the right screens.

  • Module access per person

    Turn modules such as OPD, IPD, billing, pharmacy or laboratory on or off for each staff member.

  • Multi-doctor clinics

    Add doctors to your hospital; each keeps their own schedule, queue and earnings.

  • Staff chat

    Direct messages between staff inside the software, with unread counts.

  • Attendance, leave and payroll

    Keep staff profiles, mark attendance, approve leave and run payroll.

How it works

  1. The owner creates the hospital in Sehat Nxt and becomes its owner.
  2. Doctors join the hospital or are added by the owner; staff are added with their role.
  3. The owner sets which modules each person can open.
  4. Each person signs in and sees only their own screens: the queue for reception, the consultation screen for doctors, the billing desk for billing staff.
  5. Staff HR keeps profiles, attendance, leave and payroll for the team.

Who it is for

It is for clinic owners and hospital administrators who want each staff member to see what they need and nothing more. It also suits doctors who work at more than one hospital, because each facility keeps its own settings for that doctor.

Which roles can have a login?

RoleTypical work
OwnerSettings, staff, reports, data controls
AdminDay-to-day hospital setup on the owner's behalf
DoctorQueue, prescriptions, IPD notes, earnings
Receptionist / coordinatorRegistration, tokens, walk-ins, breaks
NurseIPD charting, vitals and orders
BillingBilling desk only
LabLaboratory only

Billing authority, such as discount limits and who approves them, is set separately in billing settings, so a cashier and a billing head can have different limits.

Key capabilities

  • Role-based logins for owner, admin, doctor, receptionist, coordinator, nurse, billing and lab staff.
  • Module permissions per staff member for OPD, IPD, online consultation, chat, billing, staff, inventory, laboratory, radiology and pharmacy.
  • Multi-doctor hospitals: doctors keep their own schedules, queues and earnings inside one hospital.
  • Staff directory for doctors, coordinators, nurses and accounts staff.
  • Staff chat for direct messages between team members.
  • Staff HR: profiles with photo, attendance, leave requests and approvals, and payroll runs.
  • Approval for new staff: doctors and receptionists who join wait for approval before they can work.

How do module permissions work?

Each login has a role, and each staff member also has a set of modules the owner has switched on: OPD, IPD, online consultation, chat, billing, staff, inventory, laboratory, radiology and pharmacy. A receptionist can run the queue without seeing billing, and a lab technician sees only the lab.

Adding doctors and staff

An owner can create a doctor's account directly, or a doctor can ask to join an existing hospital. New doctors and receptionists wait for approval before they can work in the hospital, and doctors can upload verification documents.

For staff who do not use their own phone number to sign in, the owner can assign a password from staff HR. Each staff profile can carry a photo, so the team directory is easy to recognise.

When a staff member leaves, the owner removes their access without touching the patient records they worked on.

Staff chat sits inside the same software, so messages about a patient or a shift do not go to personal phones.

Owners can also see the team by role in separate lists for doctors, coordinators, nurses and accounts staff, which makes it easy to check who has access to what.

How it connects to other modules

Roles decide who works in the live OPD queue, hospital billing and IPD management. Owners of several hospitals see doctors and staff across branches in the multi-branch dashboard. Plans from ₹999 per month.

Questions about Staff & Roles

Can I stop the receptionist from seeing billing?

Yes. The owner turns modules on or off for each staff member, so a receptionist can work in the queue without billing access.

Can billing and lab staff have their own logins?

Yes. Billing and lab logins open only their own module.

Does each doctor in a multi-doctor clinic get separate earnings?

Yes. Each doctor keeps their own schedule, queue and earnings within the hospital.
