1. Introduction
1.1 Purpose
The purpose of this SRS document is to define the requirements for the development of a
Hospital Data Management System, which will streamline and enhance the management of
patient information, medical records, appointments, billing, and other essential functions
within a hospital.
1.2 Scope
This system will be used by hospital staff, including administrators, doctors, nurses, and
billing personnel, to manage patient data and streamline hospital operations.

2. Overall Description
2.1 Product Perspective
The Hospital Data Management System is a standalone software application that interacts
with various hospital departments, including registration, billing, and medical records. It
does not integrate with external systems.
2.2 Product Functions
The system will include the following key functions:
User registration and authentication
Patient admission and discharge
Electronic medical record management
Appointment scheduling
Billing and payment processing
Inventory management
Reporting and analytics
2.3 User Classes and Characteristics
Administrators: Manage system settings and user roles.
Doctors and Nurses: Access patient records, schedule appointments, and update
medical information.
Billing Personnel: Manage billing and payment processing.
Patients: Access their own medical records and appointments.
2.4 Operating Environment
The system will be web-based, accessible through standard web browsers, and will run on
web servers supporting PHP and MySQL.
2.5 Design and Implementation Constraints
The project will use MySQL as the database management system.
The user interface will be developed using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
The server-side logic will be implemented using PHP.
2.6 Assumptions and Dependencies
The system assumes users have a reliable internet connection for access.
The system depends on the availability and proper functioning of the MySQL
database.
3. Specific Requirements
3.1 External Interface Requirements
3.1.1 User Interfaces
The system shall provide user authentication through username and password.User roles
and permissions shall be defined and enforced..
3.1.2 Hardware Interfaces
The system will run on standard web browsers without any specific hardware
requirements. It should be accessible from devices with internet connectivity.
3.1.3 Software Interfaces
The system will interact with the MySQL database for data storage and retrieval.
3.2 Functional Requirements
3.2.1. User Authentication and Authorization
The system shall provide user authentication through username and password.
User roles and permissions shall be defined and enforced.
3.2.2. Patient Registration
The system shall allow authorized users to enter and update patient information.
Registration forms shall include fields for personal and medical details.
3.1.3. Medical Record Management
Doctors and nurses shall be able to create and update electronic medical records
(EMRs) for patients.
EMRs shall include information on diagnoses, treatment plans, medications, and test
results.
3.1.4. Appointment Scheduling
The system shall allow users to schedule, reschedule, and cancel patient
appointments.
Users shall receive appointment reminders.
3.1.5. Billing and Payment Processing
The system shall generate bills for services rendered to patients.
Patients shall be able to make payments online.
Billing personnel shall mark bills as paid.
3.1.6. Inventory Management
The system shall track inventory of medical supplies and equipment.
Low-stock alerts shall be generated when inventory levels are low.
3.1.7. Reporting and Analytics
The system shall provide various reports, including patient demographics, revenue
reports, and inventory status.
Reports shall be exportable in common formats (e.g., PDF, Excel).
3.3 Non-Functional Requirements
3.3.1 Performance
- The system should provide efficient response times and handle a significant number of
concurrent users.
3.3.2 Security
- User data will be securely stored and transmitted, and user authentication will use
encryption and secure protocols.
3.3.3 Usability
- The user interface should be intuitive and user-friendly.
3.3.4 Scalability
- The system should be able to scale to accommodate a growing number of users, patients,
and doctors.
3.3.5 Reliability
- The system should be highly reliable, with minimal downtime and data integrity
safeguards.
3.3.6. Data Privacy and Compliance
The system shall comply with relevant healthcare data privacy regulations (e.g., HIPAA).
Patient data shall be encrypted during transmission and storage.
3.3.7. Integration
The system shall not integrate with external systems in this phase.
3.2.8. Accessibility
The web application shall be compatible with common web browsers.
It shall be accessible for users with disabilities.
3.4 Technology Stacks
The system will be developed using web technologies, including HTML, CSS,
JavaScript, and PHP. Data will be stored and managed using a MySQL database.
