Welcome to Veona
Veona is a hospital management, electronic medical record, and laboratory information system (HMS / EMR / LIMS) built for healthcare facilities across Africa. It runs as a single product you can deploy in the cloud or on-premises, covering the day-to-day work of a clinic, a full hospital, a multi-facility group, or a public-health programme.

The three places you sign in
Section titled “The three places you sign in”Veona is delivered as separate apps, each on its own address:
- Staff app —
hms.veonahealth.com. The same staff application is also served atemr.veonahealth.comandehr.veonahealth.com; all three are aliases for the one app, so use whichever your facility points you to. This is where all clinical and administrative work happens. - Patient portal —
patients.veonahealth.com. A separate app for patients, with passwordless sign-in. - Control plane —
platform.veonahealth.com. The operator console for provisioning, billing, and licensing. Most readers of this guide will not use it.
How this help centre is organised
Section titled “How this help centre is organised”You can approach the documentation three ways:
- By role — start with what your job involves (ordering, fulfilling, registering, administering).
- By module — register, chart, labs, imaging, rx, ward, theatre, billing, and the rest.
- By workflow — end-to-end journeys such as a diagnostics requisition, a ward admission, or a telehealth consult.
