Abstract

This project report focuses on the Design and Implementation of a Health Records Management Information System (HRMIS), aimed at automating health record-keeping in hospitals to improve efficiency. Built with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Node.js, and MySQL, the HRMIS manages patient records, schedules appointments, and generates billing information, enhancing administrative workflows. Chapter One introduces the project background, highlighting the limitations of manual recordkeeping in healthcare. It outlines the objectives, significance, and scope of the HRMIS, emphasizing how it addresses identified challenges. Chapter Two reviews existing health management systems such as OpenMRS, DHIS2, and EPIC Systems. It examines their methodologies, challenges, and limitations, providing a basis for the proposed system. Chapter Three details the system's development using the Waterfall methodology, covering requirement analysis, design, implementation, and testing. This chapter includes system design diagrams, flowcharts, and an architectural overview. Chapter Four evaluates the HRMIS through user feedback and performance testing, comparing it with manual systems. The chapter highlights the system’s improvements in accuracy and efficiency.
