What is NetBloodBank?
NetBloodBank is blood bank management software (a blood bank information system, or BBIS) from Birlamedisoft. It runs the full vein-to-vein workflow in one system: donor registration and screening, collection and barcode labelling, infectious-disease testing, component preparation, inventory and expiry control, grouping and cross-match, issue, transfusion follow-up and regulatory reporting.
Who is NetBloodBank built for?
Standalone blood banks and blood centres, blood storage centres, hospital transfusion services, multi-centre blood bank networks, plasma collection centres, and cord blood, stem cell and tissue banks. The same platform is configured to match how each type of centre actually works.
What is the difference between the Full and Storage-Only versions?
The Full Version includes both the Donation and Issue modules, for blood banks that collect blood and issue it: donor management, camps, testing, component preparation, inventory, cross-match, issue and billing. The Storage-Only Version includes only the Issue module. It is built for blood storage units that receive blood from a parent blood bank and issue it, but do not collect donations on site. Compare both versions.
Does NetBloodBank include billing?
Yes. Billing is built in. You can bill individual and bulk issues, set up component charges and concession categories, and track billing through dedicated billing reports. Billing can also be linked to your hospital's billing system if you prefer.
What reports does NetBloodBank include?
More than 50 ready-made reports and registers, including blood grouping, issue registers, donor details, billing, CMIS, camp performance and camp organiser reports, and component stock and expiry summaries. Quality control registers are kept for PRBC, whole human blood, fresh frozen plasma and platelet concentrate.
How is a dedicated blood bank system different from a LIMS with a blood bank module?
A LIMS is designed around samples and test results. Blood banking also needs donor eligibility and deferral rules, bag and component-level traceability, compatibility checks before issue, and haemovigilance reporting. NetBloodBank is built around those blood-bank-specific steps instead of adding them on top of a general lab system. See our comparison of blood bank management tools.
Can NetBloodBank connect to our hospital HIMS, EMR and lab analyzers?
Yes. NetBloodBank integrates over HL7, FHIR and REST APIs. Typical connections are blood requests coming in from hospital order entry, cross-match and issue results going back to the patient record, transfusion charges flowing to billing, patient-master sync, and analyzer interfacing for grouping and cross-match. It also connects natively to Birlamedisoft's Quanta HIMS and PathoGold LIMS.
Should we choose NetBloodBank Cloud or NetBloodBank Enterprise (on-premise)?
Choose Cloud if you want browser and mobile access from anywhere, automatic updates and no servers to maintain. Choose Enterprise if you need the system to run fully on your own hardware, including offline, with complete control over where data is stored. Both editions have the same blood bank functionality, and both work for single-centre and multi-centre operations. Read our guide to cloud vs on-premise blood bank software.
What are the system requirements for the offline (on-premise) version?
The offline version is installed on a main server PC running Windows 10 or 11 Pro or Enterprise, with at least 8 GB of RAM and a 250 GB SSD recommended. Front desk, lab and billing terminals connect to it over your LAN; static IP addressing is needed if external access is required. An external drive is recommended for local backups.
How long does it take to go live?
A typical single-centre blood bank goes live in 1-2 weeks, and a multi-centre network in 4-6 weeks. That covers configuration, analyzer and HIMS interfaces, staff training, a short parallel run and go-live support. Cloud deployments are usually quicker than on-premise installations.
Does NetBloodBank support apheresis, plasma collection and component preparation?
Yes. It handles whole-blood and apheresis donations, source-plasma collection and component preparation for whole blood, packed red blood cells (PRBC), fresh frozen plasma, platelets and cryoprecipitate. Every component stays linked to its source donation through processing, storage, issue and transfusion.
How does NetBloodBank help with audits and inspections?
Every action is recorded in an audit trail with the user and timestamp. Donor deferral logs, component traceability records, discard registers, transfusion reaction reports and statutory registers are produced as part of day-to-day work, so inspection records are ready without separate paperwork. Learn more about blood bank safety and efficiency.
How is NetBloodBank priced?
Pricing is quoted for each blood bank and depends on the edition (Cloud or Enterprise), the number of centres and your operating scale. Multi-centre networks get volume pricing. with your monthly collection volume and number of centres for exact figures.
Who builds and supports NetBloodBank?
NetBloodBank is developed and supported by Birlamedisoft Pvt. Ltd., a healthcare software company based in Pune, India. Birlamedisoft holds ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 27001:2022 certifications and CMMI Level 3, and also builds Quanta HIMS, PathoGold LIMS and other healthcare software.
