This results in in convenienceand wastage of time.Lack of immediate information storage: -The information generated by various transactions takes time and efforts to be stored at right place.Lack of prompt updating: -Various changes to information like patient details or immunization details of child are difficult to make as paper work is involved.Error prone manual calculation: -Manual calculations are error prone and take a lot of time this may result in incorrect information. For example calculation of patient’s bill based on various treatments.Preparation of accurate and prompt reports: -This becomes a difficult task as information is difficult to collect from various register.Objective:-1) Define hospital2) Recording information about the Patients that come.3) Generating bills.4) Recording information related to diagnosis given to Patients.5) Keeping record of the Immunization provided to children/patients.6) Keeping information about various diseases and medicines available to cure them.These are the various jobs that need to be done in a Hospital by the operational staff andDoctors. All these works are done on papers.Scope of the Project:-1) Information about Patients is done by just writing the Patients name, age and gender. Whenever the Patient comes up his information is stored freshly.2) Bills are generated by recording price for each facility provided to Patient on a separate sheet and at last they all are summed up.3) Diagnosis information to patients is generally recorded on the document, which contains Patient information. It is destroyed after some time period to decrease the paper load in the office.4) Immunization records of children are maintained in pre-formatted sheets, which are kept in a file.5) Information about various diseases is not kept as any document. Doctors themselves do this job by remembering various medicines.All this work is done manually by the receptionist and other operational staff and lot of papers are needed to be handled and taken care of. Doctors have to remember various medicines available for diagnosis and sometimes miss better alternatives as they can’t remember them at that time.1.3 MODULES:The entire project mainly consists of 7 modules, which arev Admin modulev User module (patient)v Doctor modulev Nurse modulev Pharmacist modulev Laboratorist modulev Accountant module1.3.1 Admin module:manage department of hospitals, user, doctor, nurse, pharmacist, laboratorist accounts.watch appointment of doctorswatch transaction reports of patient paymentBed ,ward, cabin statuswatch blood bank reportwatch medicine status of hospital stockwatch operation reportwatch birth reportwatch diagnosis reportwatch death report1.3.2 user module(patient): View appointment list and status with doctorsView prescription detailsView medication from doctorView doctor listView blood bank statusView operation historyView admit history. like bed, ward icu etcManage own profile1.3.3 Doctor module:Manage patient. account opening and updatingCreate, manage appointment with patientCreate prescription for patientProvide medication for patientsIssue for operation of patients and creates operation reportManage own profile1.3.4 Nurse module:Manage patient. account opening and updatingAllot bed, ward, cabin for patientsProvide medication according to patient prescriptionManage blood bank and update statusKeep record of patient operation, baby born and death of patientManage own profile1.3.5 Pharmacist module:Maintain medicineKeep records of hospitals stock medicines and statusManage medicine categoriesWatch prescription of patientProvide medication to prescriptions1.3.6 Laboratorist module:Watch prescription listUpload diagnostic reportPreview of report files. like xray images, ct scan, mri reportsManage own profile1.3.7 Accountant module:Create invoice for paymentOrder invoice to patientTake cash paymentWatch payment history of patientsManage own profile
