YarnTally for Clinics: The Simplest Way to Digitise an Indian Medical Practice

15 July 2026 ยท 5 min read

Solo doctors and small clinics still run on paper. YarnTally digitises the whole practice โ€” patient records, appointments, prescriptions, GST billing โ€” in one day.

Walk into any solo GP clinic or dental practice in India, and you'll find the same three things: a handwritten OPD register at reception, prescriptions on carbon-copy paper pads, and a metal box under the counter where day's cash sits till evening.

It works. It's just not scalable, and it's not compliant.

YarnTally's Healthcare module is the simplest possible digitisation path. Doesn't try to be Epic. Tries to be what a busy doctor + front-desk person will actually use, on day one, on their phone.

Patient records that don't lose critical info

Every patient captures: name, MRN, date of birth, gender, contact, blood group (surfaces prominently), allergies, chronic conditions, emergency contact.

The moment a patient walks in the second time, front desk searches by name or phone โ€” full history opens. Allergies + chronic conditions flash in red at the top.

Appointment scheduler with status pipeline

Book: date, time, patient, doctor, reason, fee. Status: Scheduled โ†’ Arrived โ†’ In consultation โ†’ Completed โ†’ Cancelled / No-show. Live queue board on any screen.

Prescription log

After consultation: diagnosis, medicines (free-text โ€” "Paracetamol 500mg 1-0-1 x 5d"), advice, follow-up date. Follow-up date creates auto-reminder โ€” WhatsApp goes to patient 1 day + 1 hour before.

GST-compliant billing

Every invoice: business name + GSTIN, patient details, consultation fee + SGST/CGST split (or IGST out-of-state), SAC code, UPI payment link, WhatsApp share.

Fully compliant. Zero manual receipt writing.

Per-doctor revenue reports

Multi-doctor practices see per-doctor: patients seen, revenue, avg fee, collection ratio.

Who this is for

  • Solo GP / dentist / physio / psychologist โ€” Suitable at โ‚น999/month
  • Multi-doctor practices โ€” Pro at โ‚น2,999
  • Diagnostic labs โ€” pathology extension available
  • Small hospitals โ€” Premium (โ‚น7,999) with 50 seats

Not what it is

Not a full hospital EMR, not a LIMS, not a radiology PACS, not a telemedicine platform. It's the operational back-office layer โ€” for 90% of Indian clinics, that's what's actually missing.

Data security

Every clinic is Postgres row-level isolated. Other clinics literally cannot see your patients. Immutable audit trail. Data centres in Mumbai. DPDP Act compliant.

How to try

/signup โ†’ pick "Healthcare / Clinic" โ†’ 14-day trial โ†’ add doctors + fees โ†’ register first patient โ†’ book an appointment.

The first patient encounter takes 10 minutes to figure out. From then on it's faster than paper.
