Bhima is alpha version software. Please do not use this in a commerical context.

Bhima is a free, open source accounting and hospital information management system (HIMS) tailored for rural hospitals in Africa. We are an international team based in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

Bhima aims to provide a flexible and robust accounting and managerial solution for rural hospitals. This includes, but is not limited to, basic income/expense reporting, budgeting, patient and organisational billing, depreciation, inventory and pricing, and purchasing.

Additionally, bhima bundles reports and optional reporting plugins to aid hospital administrators, aid organisations, and governmental/non-governmental agencies access up to date utilization data.

Finally, the entire project is designed to scale from a single, low cost device in a clinic, to a large multi-hundred bed institution with tens of users accessing the server simultaneously.

All contributions are welcome! Our project is still in the alpha phase; we provide no guarantee on the build until our first releases (Spring 2014). However, feel free to fork, send us a pull request, do some style or translation work! Please refer to the contributing guide for more information.
