Hi Suresh,
Regarding the organizational unit for hospital, following would be my comments.
You model the organizational structure of your hospital using organizational units (OUs) that you bring into relation with one another. Whenever you create an organizational unit, you assign an organizational category to it. The organizational category determines which organizational units can be brought into relation with one another. You can define organizational categories of your choosing in Customizing for IS-H.
Examples of such categories are:
u2013 Clinic
u2013 Department
u2013 Care unit
u2013 Admitting facility
u2013 Outpatient clinic
You create an organizational unit with the appropriate organizational category for each organizational unit in your institution. The organizational category determines which attributes you can store for an organizational unit.
Examples of such attributes are:
u2013 Outpatient treatment
u2013 Departmental assignment
u2013 Nursing assignment
u2013 Supports inter-departmental bed assignment
Use: The organizational structure you define in the IS-H System is used in the following areas:
Patient assignment:  The attributes of an OU determine whether it can be used as a departmental, nursing and/or treatment OU in the patient assignment.
Service entry/billing:  In the master data of an OU, you can specify the service that should be automatically entered and billed for a patientu2019s stay in this OU. The organizational structure determines whether you can store different services on different levels of the organizational hierarchy.
Statistics:  Statistics evaluate specific data in relation to organizational units, for example the patient census, and total the determined values according to the organizational hierarchy.
Service transfer into Controlling:  To be able to transfer services into Controlling, you must first have assigned organizational units to cost centers. You should, therefore, also include service facilities such as laboratories and X-ray departments in the organizational hierarchy, so as to be able to post to the corresponding cost centers when carrying out internal activity allocation.Prior to creating an organizational structure, you should analyze which results you require in the respective areas and create the organizational structure accordingly.
To model the organizational structures of your institution in the system, you create an organizational structure. To do this, work through the following activities in the order specified.
Process Flow
Create organizational units
Maintain the organizational hierarchy
Set up inter-departmental relationships
Maintain organizational unit-to-building unit assignments
Release the organizational structure
Set up organizational unit identifiers
Chart of accounts to be used for IS-H will not be a raedy made chart of account but you will need to finalize this by understanding with the client. They must be having some traditional chart of account which must be in use currently. That could be a good point to start with.
Hope this helps you and let me know if you need any other information.
