Hospinizer
Patient authentication, appointment reminders and EMR synchronisation across clinics.
- Role
- Software Engineer at Simplex. I built patient authentication, appointment reminders and the EMR integration.

- Simplex Technology Solutions
01Project
What the system is
Hospinizer handles patient appointments across multiple clinics, each running its own EMR system. I built its patient-facing backend features and the EMR integration at Simplex Technology Solutions.
02Problem
What needed solving
Patients book with clinics that each run their own EMR system. Appointments had to stay synchronised across those systems, and patients needed secure sign-in and timely reminders.
03My role
What I was responsible for
- Implemented patient authentication.
- Built automated push notifications for upcoming appointments.
- Integrated clinic EMR systems through an aggregator engine.
04Engineering
What I built
- 01
Appointment reminders
Automated push notifications remind patients about upcoming appointments, which improves adherence.
- 02
EMR aggregation
An aggregator engine integrates each clinic's EMR system so appointments stay synchronised everywhere.
05Complexity
Engineering challenges
- Every clinic runs its own EMR system, so synchronisation goes through an aggregator engine rather than one shared database.
- Reminders are automated and time-based, so they are only as good as the appointment data behind them.
- Patient data is sensitive, which puts authentication at the centre of the patient-facing features.
06Outcome
What it changed
- Automated reminders for upcoming appointments, built to improve adherence.
- Appointments synchronised across clinics through the aggregator engine.
