Guides

Guides for running a clinic in India, sorted by the job in front of you.

82 guides for doctors, front desks and clinic owners. Each one names its primary sources and shows the date it was last checked. None of them gives clinical advice.

Starting a clinic

Opening a clinic, from registration to the signboard.

Registration under your state's law, the council, licences, documents, costs, layout and naming.

Money and tax

Money and tax, for a doctor who also runs the books.

GST, income tax, TDS, professional tax, staff wages and PF, the day's collections and what to send your CA.

Compliance

Compliance, the rules a private OPD answers to.

Records, prescriptions, certificates, consent, DPDP, bio-medical waste, ABDM and the NMC, each from the rule text.

Operations

Running the day, at the desk and in the consulting room.

Tokens, bookings, waiting time, no-shows, the receptionist's checklist, owner reports and what to do when the internet drops.

Buying software

Choosing clinic software, and moving to it without losing a week.

Checklists, hidden costs, alternatives to named products, switching your data and training the front desk.

How these guides are written.

Every rule is checked against the Gazette, the Act or the regulator's own page, and every guide is re-checked on a schedule. Read the editorial policy or the comparison method.
