RAJSHAHI, Feb 19, 2026 (BSS) - To make healthcare services more accessible, faster, and modern for teachers, students, and officers and staff, a new medical automation software and online portal has been launched at the Medical Centre of University of Rajshahi.

The service was inaugurated on Wednesday by Vice-Chancellor Professor Saleh Hasan Naqib at a program held in the conference room of the Administration Building.

Senior university officials, ICT-related faculty members, physicians, and students were present at the event.

Through this new service, users can now book doctors' appointments online, view physicians' schedules, and collect reports of various pathological tests. These facilities can be accessed by logging into the designated portal using the university's own ID and password.

The Vice-Chancellor said that automation would play an important role in making the Medical Centre's services more user-friendly and effective, ensuring faster healthcare delivery.

Under the supervision of the ICT Centre, a team of students from the Department of Computer Science and Engineering developed the software. 

Through this system, doctors will be able to issue digital prescriptions, and patients' medical information will be stored in a centralized database, making future medical management easier.

Online appointments will be valid only for the respective day and will be automatically canceled at the end of the day. 

In addition, the facility to view and download pathological reports online will significantly reduce the need for in-person visits. However, the previous in-person registration system will also remain in operation.

The university authorities stated that there are plans to add more features to the automation system in the future, including medical history tracking, medicine stock information, ambulance service integration, a mobile app, and notification services.
