Abstract

Diagnostic center is a web based online project. The main aim of the project is store the information of the test details in a hospital or a clinic.

Diagnostic center is an intranet based private web application. The objective of the project work is to develop effective software for maintaining the information relating to the lab details. This project is completely menu driven and user friendly. It gives details about various tests for patients and purchase section. In addition to that it has a provision for generating reports in different formats and hence reports are useful in strategic and tactic decision-making .The ultimate aim of implementing this project is to automate the Lab Management System of the concern. Totally this project is towards inducing complete Billing through computer with maximum user-interaction and error-free information.
This system is designed using Visual Basic as front-end and Ms-Access as Backbend in Windows 98 operating system. The developed software is easier and flexible to handle computerization of the system reduces time consumption and increases system's efficiency
They are outpatient department, inpatient department, +nursing stations, billing counter, pharmacies, central drug stores, diagnostic center, ambulance, intensive care units, operation theatres, emergency ward, mortuary, patient room management, staff management and training departments. Each department has its own manager and few staff given to it to manage its operations. All staff are trained to use the healthcare software provided by the management. The staff can never afford to forget data entry as otherwise they will not be able to fulfill their duties with appropriate inputs.



Objective:

A major healthcare center chain spread across many locations in India has opened a 200-bed hospital in a coastal town in Andhra Pradesh. There are no such healthcare centers in 200 km radius and thus this center became the main hospital to nearly 7 lakh people in and around that town. Being part of a major chain it has its own software implemented across all departments. They are outpatient department, inpatient department, +nursing stations, billing counter, pharmacies, central drug stores, diagnostic center, ambulance, intensive care units, operation theatres, emergency ward, mortuary, patient room management, staff management and training departments. Each department has its own manager and few staff given to it to manage its operations. All staff are trained to use the healthcare software provided by the management. The staff can never afford to forget data entry as otherwise they will not be able to fulfill their duties with appropriate inputs.
Elless Diagnostic center is used to store the information of the test details in a hospital or a clinic. Here actor is the Lab-Technician or Doctor and he/she should be registered in the Diagnostic center login account first then only he/she will do anything. When patient visited Diagnostic center then the Receptionists will register the patient and give appointment to take prescription from Doctor. Doctor examines the patient and gives the list of tests to be taken by patient. Lab-Technician gives appointment to the test for the patient.
Receptionists calculate the bill to be paid by the patient and add 12% tax to it and specify total amount. Patient pays the bill and Receptionists must generate the receipt based on the pay method (cash, credit card, check) and issue it to the patient. Lab-Technician will then conducts tests to the patient and specify the time to collect the Reports according to the type of the test.
