Overview
The Doctor Hub is the physician launchpad for OPD work. It brings the OPD queue, follow-ups, pending reports, active prescription context, consultation action, prescription action, and lab-order action into one role-specific page.
Route: /app/dashboards/doctor-hub.
KPI Cards
The hub currently shows four doctor KPIs:
- OPD queue -- patients waiting or under review.
- Follow-ups -- follow-up workload for the doctor.
- Pending reports -- diagnostic or report context that may require review.
- Active prescriptions -- prescription context where that workflow is available.
Some rows can be placeholders or restricted links in demo/training contexts. Do not treat restricted patient or report links as live patient data unless the clinic has the required activation.
Quick Actions
The doctor quick actions are:
- Start Consultation ->
/app/clinical/opd/queue - Create Prescription ->
/app/clinical/opd/VIS-4A21 - Order Lab ->
/app/laboratory/orders
For Solo Doctor & Small Clinic, use Start Consultation as the primary OPD queue entry point. Prescription and lab-order writes require BioEcko activation before they should be used as live clinical workflow.
Worklists
The Doctor Hub worklists focus on:
- OPD queue ->
/app/clinical/opd/queue - Pending reports -> restricted patient/report context until activated
Use the OPD queue to pick the next checked-in patient. If pending reports or patient chart links are restricted, follow the clinic's manual review process and confirm activation before relying on those links.
Clinical write boundary
The small-clinic shell supports status-only OPD work and activated consultation actions. Full clinical notes, diagnosis writes, prescription writes, order writes, file uploads, and patient chart document workflows require BioEcko activation for the clinic.
This boundary matters for public rollout: the Doctor Hub can guide the doctor to the OPD queue, but the clinic should not assume complete EMR or prescription authoring is live until activated.
Small-clinic operating pattern
A doctor in a small clinic usually works in this order:
- Reception checks the patient in from Front Desk Hub.
- Doctor opens Doctor Hub.
- Doctor opens the OPD queue.
- Doctor completes the activated consultation/status workflow.
- Billing/Admin reviews the billing draft in Accountant Hub or Billing.
This keeps the daily flow short and avoids exposing hospital modules that are not part of the clinic's activated scope.
The outpatient visit moves from arrival to clinical note, orders, billing, and follow-up.
Patient is checked in from appointment or walk-in queue.
Nurse or doctor records vital signs and quick notes.
Doctor records complaints, diagnosis, and clinical notes.
Prescriptions, lab, radiology, referrals, or procedures are created.
Charges are posted and payment or credit workflow begins.
Next appointment, advice, and patient documents are completed.
Notes
Clinic tip
For a solo doctor, bookmark /app/dashboards/doctor-hub and /app/clinical/opd/queue for the daily clinic session.
Warning
Do not promise live prescription, diagnosis, order, or file workflows unless BioEcko has activated them for the clinic.
