What we do

One company. Every link in the chain, from the health post to the super speciality hospital to the patient's phone.

Most health software in Nepal is imported and adapted. Ours is designed here, around HMIS registers, DHIS2, HIB claims, IRD invoices, Bikram Sambat dates and a doctor who talks to patients in Nepali. Then we make it fast enough for a full waiting room and run it for years.

03Platforms

Built to work together. Sold separately.

Each platform stands alone. Put them together and the patient record follows the person everywhere.

08Why B-CON

Designed for Nepal. Engineered for scale.

  1. 01

    Proven at national scale

    More than 550 health facilities report through B-CON every month. We know what breaks at scale, because we run it.

  2. 02

    Data stays in-country

    On premises or hosted in the country of care, in Nepal for Nepali customers. AI inference on servers we control. Identifiers removed before any model sees a record.

  3. 03

    Nepal's rules, built in

    HMIS registers, DHIS2, HIB and SSF claims, IRD e-billing, NP Core FHIR, Bikram Sambat, Nepali printouts. Not plug-ins, foundations.

  4. 04

    One record, every product

    EHMIS, EHR, PHR, Pharmacy, Blood Bank and the programme systems share FHIR R4, so a person's history moves with them.

  5. 05

    Fast for a full house

    Isolated stacks per customer, sub-100 ms APIs under load, keyboard-first counters, offline-tolerant apps.

  6. 06

    Support from Kathmandu

    More than 50 people, from health consultants to deployment engineers, answer the phone in Nepali, around the clock for hospitals.
