摘要:Information handling at the hospital is very imperative to both patients and the management of a hospital. Several Hospital Management Systems have been developed with some number of inconsistencies of data representation thereby, affecting the effectiveness of the system in its entirety. Current systems tend to store information in multiple databases which can result to data redundancy, but this system will store all information in one database so that information is updated to the same database to avoid double entries in the system. The system is visualized as a web based application with three-tier architecture. The three-tier architecture provides an increased degree of security because its multiple zones isolate protected healthcare data making it difficult for a hacker to get system-level access to the database. This research work brings to light some of the challenges in existing systems, provide a gap analysis, propose an effective and robust Hospital Management System that will perform better than the existing ones. The research work also presents the analysis and design of the proposed system using flowcharts and Use Cases.
