Danish tech firm Trifork to help transform Oman’s healthcare system

Oman's Ministry of Health has handed the digital baton to Danish tech house Trifork, asking it to build a brand‑new Revenue Cycle Management (RCM) platform and tune‑up the country's National Health Information Exchange at the same time. After a six‑way bidding bout, Trifork's two decades of e‑health wins in Switzerland and Denmark clinched the deal.

In the words of Trifork Oman's chief, Christian Hemmingsen, "This contract represents a major milestone... and the start of a long partnership."

How will it work?

One engine, two tracks:

• A cloud‑ready RCM system that chases every rial owed by insurers and employers.
• A parallel overhaul of the National Health Information Exchange so patient data flows like water rather than trickles like syrup.

Phased roll‑out:

• Proof‑of‑concept in six months — fast, lean, no fuss.
• Core features follow in waves over two years, so hospitals see gains early, not someday.

Front‑line perks:

• Fewer forms, speedier claims, shorter queues.
• Dashboards that shout out real‑time costs, letting managers fix leaks on the fly.

Why does it matter?

Oman logs roughly 41,000 outpatient visits a day. When billing drags or data go missing, the whole queue stalls. By automating the money trail:

• Patients spend less time in plastic chairs.
• Government coffers refill quicker — cash that can hire nurses instead of chasing paperwork.
• Policymakers finally get clean, nation‑wide stats to steer resources where they're needed most.

In short, it's a digital tune‑up that turns healthcare from reactive to proactive, perfectly in step with Oman Vision 2040's call for smarter public services.

The context

The Ministry runs 263 facilities — 50 hospitals, 21 health complexes, 192 health centers — serving five‑plus million people. Keeping that machine humming demands data discipline. Trifork brings a toolbox of European best practices, 1,229 specialists, and a track record of "inspire, build, run" projects from tax portals to power‑grid dashboards.

As Hemmingsen sums it up, "We're honored to use our digital‑health know‑how to fuel Oman's next chapter of innovation."
