4 CHAPTER 1: System Analysis (1) The Problem Statement A small clinic is interested in exploring the creation of a simplified patient care system (SPCS) to provide a sophisticated method of processing daily tasks. (a) Context and Importance of the system The thought process behind redesigning the traditional system is to update the scheduling system, convert paper files to electronic files, and provide a more efficient method of processing payments. Flaws in the traditional system are responsible for increase in costs, conflicting schedules, lack of full medical history, and poor time management. It is important to implement a computerized system which allows easy and accurate changes in scheduling, maintains past and present medical records, sorts data, manages billing and payment history, generates invoices, and updates insurance information regularly. (b) Overall goals of the system The overall goal of the system is to provide greater functionality by increasing workflow, organization and accuracy within the clinic; via management of appointment scheduling, patient history, and billing records. (c) Scope of project Our team will develop a database system which is suitable for a small office comprising of fewer than 10 medical staff. The system will run on both desktop computers for the office staff and tablets issued to doctors and nurses. (2) Requirements 2.1 Functionality of the system The system will provide an efficient scheduling service o System will have a pop up box for easy input of appointments o Conflicts in scheduling will be clear, and avoidable o System will be able to generate invoices off of scheduled appointments o Schedule will be printable, to provide daily list as needed for staff The system will handle all payments from patients and insurance companies o Invoices can be generated and sent to appropriate party for request of payment o The system will track payments, send reminders for late/unreceived payments o The system will have the ability to print receipts for patients who have paid The system will keep track of patient s medical history and basic information o A patient s record will include their medical history, provided by the patient at The system will keep track of treatments undergone both past and present from patients 4

5 o The system will keep track of patient referrals o The system will log patient insurance information, and prompt for updates when policy expires o The system will send and receive lab results to be shared with medical staff and patients o The system will be able to send a receive scripts from a pharmacy 2.2 Data requirements of the system The system will be comprised of a database with search capabilities The data will mainly be patient information, staff information, and daily schedules Tables included: o Patient (PatientID is PK) o Employee (EmployeeID is PK) o ICD9 Codes for Diseases/Infections of Patients o Payment Table, cost of appointment/prodecures o Insurance Table (Provider, Contact Info, Co-Pay) o User ID/Password storage 2.3 Business rules and logic Only employees allowed in system, username and password required Accounting of Clinic not in this system Ordering of supplies for office also a separate function of the business Office staff/nurses can clearly see all doctors schedules. Reports of schedule are printed daily and handed to Medical Staff for reference. 2.4 Other non-functional requirements such as security, usability, performance, etc. Security is of the utmost importance when handling medical data. System programmers will review HIPAA laws to protect patient confidentiality when writing security protocols. System will be password protected, only accessible by Office or Medical staff. Password must be changed every 30 days and come with three security questions. System will have advanced search capabilities System will track Physician and Nurses licenses and include prompts for renewals 2.5 Other important assumptions The system will be small enough to sit on a single server Hardware will include a large amount of RAM so as not to keep patients, or medical staff waiting, especially in situations where time is limited System will not include functionality for Office Accounting, use quickbooks as a separate entity. Only used for scheduling and patient information. 5

6 (3) Use Case Model 3.1 Actors and their Goals Office Staff- The office staff is the main user of the DNS system. They need to add appointments, keep track of schedules, bill for services, and process labs and prescriptions. Medical Staff- The medical staff (doctors and nurses at the clinic) need to be able to access the program to view and print their daily schedule of appointments. Referring Physician- The referring physician needs to be able to send a referral which can be received and inputted into the system. Lab- The lab needs to be able to receive lab orders, and send results. Pharmacy- The pharmacy needs to be able to receive orders for prescriptions and process and fill them for patients. 6

41 1.5 Discussion of Use Cases The DNS use case diagram is comprised of yellow base, blue extend, and red include use cases. The primary actors are office staff, nurse, and doctor while secondary actors are the subsystem, lab, and pharmacy. An office staff has the ability to schedule one or multiple appointments and cancel appointments. During the scheduling process the office staff will include a date and time, as well as assign a doctor to a patient. The office staff is able to look up diagnosis codes in the ICD9 database and input patient history with symptoms only or with symptoms and treatment. An office staff will process self-pay or insurance payments and print a receipt for the patient. The office staff is responsible for sending invoices to insurance companies and late notices to both patients and insurance companies. Office staff input nurses and doctors in the system. The office staff, nurse, and or doctor with the option to print can view the schedule. The doctor will order labs, which will be sent to a lab for processing and write prescriptions that will be taken to a pharmacy for assigned patients. Earlier versions of the use case diagram consolidated all actors into the office staff actor, considered office staff both a primary and secondary actor, and had less include and extend use cases. The final version selected shows the important roles carried out by doctors, nurses, and office staff, which is why it was altered from the earlier version. More include and extend use cases were needed to give a more satisfying scope of DNS. 41

45 4.3 Selected Class Definitions All classes are intuitive. 4.4 Selected Association Definitions All associations are intuitive. 4.5 Discussion A staff member manages one to many schedules that contain one to many appointments with date and time. A patient comes to one or many appointments, which are attended by an assigned doctor that is following a set schedule. A doctor makes diagnosis, which are later recorded in a patient s medical history. Treatments are ordered by a doctor for a patient and then also recorded in the patient s medical history. Following the visit staff members print and send invoices to the patient. The payments can be paid by the patient or covered by an insurance provider. Doctors are affiliated with a clinic, which employs staff. Earlier versions of the class model lacked appropriate classes as defined in Larman s textbook, which lead to inappropriate associations. The final version was chosen after numerous attempts and suggestions made by a collaboration of team members. The diagram chosen more closely represents the goal of the DNS. 45

53 Claire King- System Sequence Diagram The above diagram illustrates the process of creating a new patient record, and the follow through that would take place during an appointment. The doctor access an appointment, reviews patient, enters symptoms and diagnoses with ICD 9 codes. They can then order labs or write prescriptions and communicate with outside actors. 53

54 Christie McHargue- System Sequence Diagram The above diagram illustrates a payment going through the system. The staff logs in, enters payment method, submits payment, confirms and marks as paid. The system then prints a receipt. 54

55 5.3 Validation and Discussion of Sequence Diagrams The system sequence diagram (5.1) is expanded into a set of sequence diagrams in section 5.2. The solid black arrows indicate a command sent from an actor to an object or an object to another. The dotted arrows indicate a response to the command. This diagram depicts the sequence of events experienced by a nurse when viewing and printing a schedule. The loop frame helps indicate the repeated action of the Print object requesting the PrintLineItem object. 55

57 6.2 Validation and Discussion of Design Class Diagram The Design Class Diagram includes the class in the first section, attributes in the second section, and operations in the third section. Nurse and doctor are derived from the class staff while payment is derived from insurance. The relationship between appointment and history is an aggregation indicating history is a part of appointment but can exist independently. Appointment has a unidirectional relationship with labs and prescriptions, where the appointment knows about labs and prescriptions. Patient and appointment have a bidirectional relationship because both classes have knowledge of each other. Patient and history, payment, and invoice have a unidirectional relationship. Lastly, the clinic is a singleton restricting it to one obect. 57
