Frequently asked questions
Is OPDly ABDM certified?
No. OPDly focuses on running the clinic — the queue, billing, pharmacy and lab — and is not ABDM certified. If ABHA record sharing is a must for you, choose software that is.
How much does Eka Care cost for a clinic?
Eka Care does not publish its clinic prices on its website; it asks you to get in touch. Ask for the yearly total for your number of doctors and staff, so you can compare fairly.
Can OPDly send prescriptions and bills on WhatsApp?
Yes. Bills, prescriptions and lab reports can be shared to the patient's WhatsApp, and patients get automatic booking confirmations and a live queue link on the Standard plan and above.
