Healthcare

Stock, claims, and payroll — one system.

Drug expiry, insurance claims, and shift-based clinical payroll are usually tracked in three places that never quite agree. Centy keeps them in one.

Make patient billing your competitive edge.

Clinics, pharmacies, and healthcare groups carry medical stock that expires, bill insurance schemes that pay out on their own schedule, and pay clinical staff — nurses, clinicians, locums — on rotating shifts. Expiry write-offs are often caught too late, and insurance claims get chased in a separate spreadsheet from patient billing.

Patients expect claims to be handled without delay

NHIF, SHIF, and private insurance claims should reconcile directly against billing, not sit in a separate spreadsheet waiting to be chased.

Providers need stock expiry caught before it's a write-off

Batch and expiry-tracked medical stock should raise an alert before a write-off happens, not after a physical count finds it.

Built for how healthcare actually runs.

Centy tracks medical stock by batch and expiry date with alerts before write-off, reconciles NHIF, SHIF, and private insurance claims against patient billing directly, and runs shift-based clinical payroll with statutory deductions applied automatically.

Batch and expiry tracked stock

Alerts are raised before a write-off happens, not after a physical count finds it.

Insurance claims tied to billing

NHIF, SHIF, and private scheme claims are reconciled directly against patient billing records.

Shift-based clinical payroll

Nurses, clinicians, and locums are paid against actual shifts worked, deductions applied automatically.

How it works

One operational record from the first step to close — not three tools reconciled at month-end.

  1. Stock is received

    Medical stock is logged by batch and expiry date the moment it arrives.

  2. Patient is billed

    Treatment and stock usage post directly to the patient record.

  3. Claims are filed

    NHIF, SHIF, and private scheme claims are reconciled against billing directly.

  4. Staff are paid

    Shift-based clinical payroll runs with statutory deductions applied automatically.
