Overview

Hospital Management Systems Project was done as a part of Software Engineering Course curicullum. The project is a web-based management system which runs on the localhost server. Hospital Management System (HMS) or Hospital Management Information System (HMIS) is an element of medical informatics solutions that focuses mainly on the administration needs of hospitals. An HMS is a computer or web-based application that manages the functioning of an entire hospital. This customizable integrated system is designed to manage all the operations of the hospital, such as administration, patient details, medical history of the patient, appointment booking, inventory management, billing, bed management, drug management, revenue management, Electronic Medical record (EMR) and so on.

The hospital management system organizes the stable functioning of daily tasks and interactions. This is a special tool to support the smooth operating of the software components that are vital for the clinic administration. The hospital records management software keeps track of all the operations, stores the users’ data, performs its analysis and generates the reports. The medical institution is given the opportunity to collect its information in one place. It includes the patient and doctors’ records as well as the data concerning financial affairs, supply management, etc. Furthermore, it is only processed, classified and accessible for authorized users. The hospital database management system provides users with data security due to all regulations. Implementation of different functions empowers smooth and clear functionality.

Scope

1. Appointment booking - Helps patients cut the long queue and saves their time. It is equipped with features like automated email

2. Role-Based Access Control - Allows employees to access only the necessary information to effectively perform their job duties increases data security and integrity

3. Overall cost reduction - Cuts down paper costs as all the data are computerized. No separate costs for setting up physical servers

4. Data security - Helps to keep patients records private. Restricts access through role-based access control

5. Revenue management - Makes daily auditing simple. Helps with statistics and other financial aspects
