Help & Support

How can we help?

Quick answers for every ProQmed portal. Tap a topic, then a question.

Getting started

What is ProQmed?

ProQmed is one secure platform that connects surgeons, hospital management, implant companies, warehouses and patients across South Africa. Every surgical implant case gets one shared record, from booking through theatre to payment, instead of phone calls, WhatsApp threads and paperwork.

How do I sign in?

On the homepage, choose your role (Surgeon, Management, Implant Company, Warehouse, Patient, Anaesthetist or Theatre Assistant) and sign in. Each role has its own portal, so make sure you pick the one that matches your account.

Can I install ProQmed on my phone?

Yes. Open proqmed.com in your phone’s browser and choose “Add to Home Screen” (Safari: tap the Share button; Chrome: tap the ⋮ menu). ProQmed then opens full screen like a normal app.

Where is ProQmed available?

ProQmed is available at Tier-1 private and provincial hospitals across all 9 South African provinces, covering both government and private sector suppliers.

Surgeons

How do I book a theatre list?

Open the menu and tap “Book a List”. Add the date, hospital and each patient case with the implants it needs. The relevant implant companies receive the cases straight away, and you can follow each one on your dashboard.

Where do I see my patients?

Tap “Patients” in the menu to see every patient case you have booked, with its current status and implant details.

How do I find an implant or a supplier?

Use “Search Implant” to browse implant companies by sector (government or private) and province, and see what they supply.

I don’t recognise an implant. How can I identify it?

Tap “Identify an Implant”. It explains how to share an X-ray or photo with a group of implant specialists who can help identify it.

How do I find an anaesthetist or theatre assistant?

Tap “Anaesthetists” or “Theatre Assistants” in the menu to browse independent practitioners and contact them directly.

What is the Professional Opportunities Board?

It lets you set up a professional profile so companies and firms can find you for work such as locums, medico-legal opinions, teaching, research or speaking, and shows you requests that match your profile.

Hospital management

What can I see as management?

Management accounts get an overview of cases, implant requests and quotes across their hospitals, along with reports and the supplier directory.

What are the sector directories?

Suppliers are organised into Government and Private sector directories, broken down by province, so you can find the right supplier for your hospital’s procurement route.

Implant companies & warehouses

How do cases reach my company?

When a surgeon books a case that needs your implants, it appears under “Cases” and on your “Calendar”. Confirm the case and track it through “Order Status” until it reaches theatre.

How do I follow a case through to payment?

Use “Get Paid” to see where each completed case is in the payment process, and “Analytics” for an overview of your activity.

What does the Warehouse portal do?

It handles receiving stock, storing and counting it, packing and dispatching implant sets, and tracing every item, so the right set leaves on time for the right case.

Our company isn’t listed. How do we join?

Email support@proqmed.co.za with your company name and contact details and we will help you get set up.

Patients

What is the Patient portal?

If your surgeon uses ProQmed, you can sign in to see information about your diagnosis and procedure, who your surgeon is, and your follow-up dates.

Can I ask medical questions through ProQmed?

No. ProQmed does not give medical advice. Please contact your surgeon or hospital directly with any questions about your health or treatment.

Account & security

Is my information secure?

Yes. Each portal is separate, access is limited to verified users in the right role, and all traffic is encrypted. See our Legal page for how we handle personal information.

How do I sign out?

Open the menu. Your name is shown at the bottom next to the sign-out icon. Tap the icon to sign out.

I can’t sign in. What should I do?

Check that you chose the right role on the homepage, as each portal has its own sign-in. If it still doesn’t work, email support@proqmed.co.za and we will help.
