eSewa and Cogent Health have rolled out an online appointment service at Kathmandu Model Hospital. Kathmandu Model had earlier joined Cogent Health’s e-Appointment platform integrated with eSewa, Nepal’s first and leading online payment gateway.

 

Patients of Kathmandu Model as well as the general public will now be able to book appointments for OPD consultations at Kathmandu Model from within eSewa mobile wallet app and also make instant payments digitally. Patients will no longer have to be physically present at the hospital and wait on the queue for booking appointments and making the payments of consultation. The service is also expected to also help reduce the associated risks posed by the current COVID-19 pandemic due to overcrowding at hospitals and healthcare institutions. With the introduction of the e-Appointment platform by Cogent and Health and eSewa, the number of hospitals adopting online appointment services is increasing day by day.
