Nidanyo
Lab software for medical laboratories in Nepal. Nidanyo runs patient registration, sample tracking, test results, report printing, billing, and inventory from one system.
Nidanyo is a comprehensive laboratory operations and information management system built for medical laboratories, diagnostic centres, and pathology labs in Nepal. It covers the full path a sample takes through a lab: patient registration, test ordering, barcoded sample collection, result entry and verification, authorised report release, billing, and stock control.
Most labs in Nepal still run on a mix of register books, a billing package that does not talk to the report side, and Word templates for reports. That works until volume grows. Then the same patient gets registered twice, a sample sits waiting because nobody logged it, a report goes out with a typo in the reference range, and the month-end reconciliation takes three days. Nidanyo exists to close those gaps.
Patient and test data live in one place. Front desk staff register a patient once and every later step reads from that record. Each sample carries a barcode from collection to result entry, so a technologist always knows which sample is on the bench and where it is in the queue. Results can be typed in or pulled directly from analysers that support standard interfacing, which removes the transcription errors that cause the most rework in a busy lab.
Reports follow a verification path rather than going straight out. A technologist enters, a pathologist or authorised signatory verifies, and only then does the report become releasable. Reference ranges can be set per test, per age band, and per sex, so an out-of-range flag actually means something. Finished reports print on your own letterhead format and can be sent to patients by email or a download link instead of asking them to come back to the counter.
The billing side sits on the same records. A test ordered is a test billed, which is where most manual leakage happens. Nidanyo handles counter billing, credit accounts for referring hospitals and clinics, panel and package rates, discounts with an approval trail, and daily collection summaries that reconcile against what the counter actually took in. Referring doctor and referring institution commissions are tracked as part of the same ledger.
Inventory covers reagents, kits, and consumables with batch numbers and expiry dates, so a lab knows what is running low before a test has to be turned away. Reorder levels raise an alert rather than a surprise. Consumption can be read against test volume to see where cost is actually going.
Every role sees only what it should. Front desk, technologist, pathologist, accounts, and administrator each get a defined permission set, and actions are logged, so a corrected result or a cancelled bill has a name and a timestamp attached. Management dashboards summarise test volume by department, revenue by referral source, turnaround time per test, and pending work at any point in the day.
Nidanyo is built and supported from Nepal by Infobytes Nepal. Setup includes loading your existing test catalogue and reference ranges, formatting your report templates, training your staff on their own screens, and staying available after go-live when a real question comes up during a busy morning.

FAQ
Common questions about Nidanyo
What is Nidanyo?
Nidanyo is laboratory software built by Infobytes Nepal for medical laboratories, diagnostic centres, pathology labs, and polyclinics in Nepal. It carries a sample from the registration counter through collection, result entry, authorised verification, and report release, and handles the billing, referral commissions, and reagent stock that go with it.
Who makes Nidanyo?
Nidanyo is built and supported by Infobytes Nepal Pvt. Ltd., an IT company based in Kaushaltar, Bhaktapur, Nepal. It is one of six products we build and support ourselves, alongside ClinicNP, Serviol, Purseol, LeadRack, and Pravyo. Implementation, training, and support are handled by the same team that builds it.
Is Nidanyo an LIS, a LIMS, or a LIOMS?
Nidanyo is a LIOMS, a laboratory information and operations management system. It covers what an LIS covers (patient-focused clinical records, results, and reports) and what a LIMS covers (sample lifecycle, chain of custody, and enforced verification), and adds the operational half a laboratory in Nepal runs on: billing, credit accounts, referring doctor commissions, reagent inventory, permissions, and management reporting.
What does Nidanyo include?
Patient registration with duplicate detection, barcoded sample collection and tracking, a test master with age and sex specific reference ranges, analyser interfacing where machines support it, result entry separated by permission from authorised verification, letterhead report printing and PDF delivery, amended report versioning, counter and credit billing with package rates and discount approvals, referring doctor and institution commission statements, reagent inventory by batch and expiry, role based access with an audit trail, and turnaround time and revenue reporting.
Can Nidanyo run on our own server inside the lab?
Yes. Labs that cannot risk downtime run Nidanyo on a machine inside the lab, so the counter and the bench keep working through an internet outage, with backups and remote reporting syncing when the connection returns. Labs with reliable connectivity usually prefer the hosted option, where we handle updates, backups, and monitoring.
Does Nidanyo handle multiple branches and collection centres?
Yes. Collection centres register patients and collect samples that are processed at the main lab, and the report becomes visible at the centre once it is verified. Billing, revenue, and pending work are reported per branch as well as consolidated.
How much does Nidanyo cost?
Nidanyo is quoted by lab size and modules rather than sold at a list price, and it is licensed by users and branches rather than per test, so growing your volume does not increase your bill. Tell us your monthly test volume, counter count, branch count, and whether you need analyser interfacing, and you get a written quotation at no charge.
How long does it take to get Nidanyo running?
For a single branch lab with a standard test menu, expect two to four weeks from catalogue setup to go live, including training and a parallel run alongside your current process. Multi branch labs and labs with analyser interfacing take longer, mostly because cleaning up the test catalogue and rate list takes longer than the software work does.
