Advanced Facilitation for Hospital Appointment System
Keywords:
SMS, Physicians, OPD, AppointmentAbstract
This system is proposed present advanced facilitation for patient appointment in hospital. In previous years, the patients firstly call to hospital, and then receptionist receives that call and asks name and other information. These processes require more time and that’s why it is very tedious. To avoid this, we want to give advance facilitation for calling system for hospital. In this hospital, patients call only through mobile to the hospital, then there is no need of receptionist to receive call; this call is automatically received by system. If the patient call to the system, then system send the code and tentative time of the appointment through SMS. The advantage of this system is, it reduces the time of appointment and there is no need of patient to wait in queue for their appointment. There is no human interaction in this system for the appointment of patients.
