FAQ

How do I estimate hospital admissions?

Admissions per day = OPD footfall × IPD conversion rate plus emergency visits × ER admission rate.

How many beds does my patient flow need?

Beds ≈ daily admissions × average length of stay, since each admission occupies a bed for its stay.

What is a typical OPD-to-IPD conversion?

It varies widely by specialty and setting, commonly around 5–12% of OPD visits leading to admission.
