Aim of the experiment: Software Requirement
Specification smart appointment in healthcare
Introduction:
The proposed project is a smart appointment booking system that
provides patients or any user an easy way of booking a doctor’s
appointment online. This is a web based application that overcomes the
issue of managing and booking appointments according to user’s choice or
demands. The task sometimes becomes very tedious for the compounder
or doctor himself in manually allotting appointments for the users as per
their availability. Hence this project offers an effective solution where users
can view various booking slots available and select the preferred date and
time. The already booked space will be marked yellow and will not be
available for anyone else for the specified time. This system also allows
users to cancel their booking anytime. The system provides an additional
feature of calculating monthly earnings of doctors. Doctors have to just
feed the system regularly with daily earnings and the system automatically
generates a report of the total amount earned at the end of the month. The
application uses Asp.net as a front-end and sql database as the back-end.
