Bok av Wani Swabik Musa Abdalla
Proper patient appointment scheduling and medicine collection is necessary to manage and keep track of patients coming to the hospitals and health centers and filling out registration forms and waits for the response for an agreed date.The previous system did develop scheduling for hospital appointment which was purely dependent on nurse towards scheduling based on appointment received from patient tapping NFC card on kiosk or from mobile. The system however lacked intelligence in scheduling the appointment with doctors. In addition there were no timing constraints in place towards making or cancelling appointment too. In addition medicine collection used NFC card as cash card in deducating the money towards buying medicine and notifying the patient on mobile for collection. The system was designed only for android based handset which was another drawback too. Last but not least there were no mobile feature for patients and doctors towards rescheduling appointment, looking for an appointments and also receiving notifications for appointment. So taking these aspects into consideration, Intelligent Mobile Appointment scheduling and medicine collection had been developed.
