Clintel Systems has launched CareRight EMR – a fully integrated electronic medical record and patient administration platform designed to support modern healthcare delivery across hospitals, specialist services and complex care environments.

In a statement, Clintel said the platform was “built for the realities of contemporary healthcare,”  providing clinicians and administrators with a single, connected system that streamlines clinical workflows, improves visibility across the patient journey and supports safer, more coordinated care.

The solution brings together patient administration, clinical documentation, medication management, theatre workflows, discharge planning and operational reporting into one unified platform.

Connected Ecosystem

Clintel said healthcare organisations were facing “increasing complexity: rising patient demand, fragmented systems, compliance pressures, and the need for real-time information.”

“CareRight EMR addresses these challenges through a cloud-based, interoperable architecture designed for flexibility, scalability and secure access.”

Core platform capabilities include: Cloud-based architecture with secure remote access; Role-based user management and configurable permissions; HL7 interoperability with internal and external healthcare systems; End-to-end clinical workflow management; Strong security, privacy, and compliance controls; Disaster recovery and enterprise-grade data backup; Mobile access and SMS-enabled patient communication; and real-time reporting and analytics for clinical and operational decision-making.

CareRight integrates with national and third-party digital health infrastructure, ensuring healthcare providers can operate within Australia’s evolving digital health ecosystem.

Comprehensive Functions

CareRight EMR is designed to support clinicians throughout the entire patient journey – from intake and admission through to treatment, monitoring and discharge.

Key clinical capabilities encompass clinical documentation and decision support, including: progress notes and structured clinical documentation; Alerts, allergies, and patient safety notices; Clinical assessments and smart digital forms; Diagnosis recording with clinical coding support; and care plans and structured treatment pathways.

Meanwhile, medication and prescribing features include: Electronic prescribing via eRx; National Data Exchange and Real-Time Prescription Monitoring; Medication management via EMMA; and integrated medication charts and prescribing workflows.

The platform’s diagnostics and clinical data capabilities include: Pathology and radiology integration; Image and document management; and My Health Record integration for clinical information sharing.

Patient Flow 

Clintel said CareRight “goes beyond traditional EMR functionality by supporting operational workflows that are critical to hospital performance.”

Operational features include: Bed allocation and transfer management; Bed reservation calendars and occupancy reporting; Theatre and surgical workflow management; Pre-admission assessments and checklists; and intake and triage workflows

The platform also provides real-time operational visibility – enabling administrators to manage capacity, patient flow and resource utilisation more effectively.

CareRight would enable healthcare organisations to “deliver a more connected patient experience through digital engagement and automated communication tools.”

Capabilities include: Online forms and digital assessments; Informed Financial Consent with online signature capture; Secure messaging and clinical correspondence; SMS communication and reminders; and patient intake and pre-admission workflows

These features aim to reduce administrative burden while improving patient engagement and transparency.

CareRight also supports safe and efficient discharge processes through structured workflows and automated documentation.

Key discharge features include: Discharge planning tools and assessments; Pending discharge tracking; Automated discharge letter generation; Secure messaging to GPs and external providers; and upload of discharge summaries to My Health Record

These capabilities are designed to ensure continuity of care and to help organisations meet regulatory and reporting requirements.

Future-Ready 

CareRight EMR was designed to support the long-term digital transformation of healthcare organisations, with a configurable architecture and modern interoperability standards that can support both existing facilities and new healthcare developments.

Clintel said healthcare providers are set to benefit from: Rapid deployment through configurable workflows; Scalable architecture for growing organisations; Built-in compliance and reporting frameworks; and integration with national digital health infrastructure.

CareRight would enable organisations to” move beyond fragmented systems and adopt a connected digital hospital environment that improves clinical efficiency, operational oversight and patient outcomes.”

Clintel said it remained committed to “supporting healthcare organisations across Australia with innovative digital health solutions that empower clinicians and improve care delivery.”

“With CareRight EMR, hospitals and healthcare providers gain a modern platform capable of supporting complex clinical environments today – while building a foundation for the digital healthcare systems of tomorrow.”

CareRight EMR is one component of the broader CareRight digital hospital platform. 

While the EMR delivers comprehensive clinical record functionality, organisations can also deploy additional CareRight modules alongside it to create a fully integrated end-to-end hospital solution.

Complementary modules include: CareRight PAS – patient administration and patient flow management; CareRight Billing & Claiming – private hospital billing, health fund claiming, and financial workflows; and CareRight Hospital – integrated operational and clinical modules supporting hospital-wide workflows

The modules can be implemented individually or deployed together to create a unified digital ecosystem that supports the entire patient journey – from referral and admission through treatment, discharge, billing and reporting.
