2012-09-12 UI UX Meeting

Participants: Susan J. Wolfe (Unlicensed), Sathyan Velumani, Surajit Nundy, Nathan Leiby (Unlicensed)

Created a UIUX Open Issues page - will talk with Sathyan to determine if we do / don't want to track UIUX questions here.

Billing / Generic decisions

  • Susan's comments on Billing - SJW comments - billing.pdf
  • Sathyan to lead the Billing Module design
    • Naveen free to assist at some level?
  • starting with Susan's Comments
  • Viewing vs Editing - need to be clear in the designs
  • Printing
    who is it printed for? (currently: pharmacy, to show the cost of drugs to be ordered. but with electronic system these can be immediately sent to the pharmacy)
  • How does Billing interact with other modules - what can generate a fee?
    • Pharmacy, Outpatient, Operations, Lab Tests
    • Others?
  • BillHistory
    • what is this? Do we need this?
    • might be useful if it's a history of bills for current patient
    • likely not useful to have other patients bills listed when you're creating a bill for a certain patient; could just use search facility

Inpatient (IPD)

Outpatient (OPD)

  • Wireframes: OPD Wireframes v2.1.pptx
  • Main Changes to 
    • HISTORY TAB, 
    • EXAMINATION TAB,
    • DATA/INVESTIGATION TAB WITH LAB FUNCTIONS,
  • "Add Drug" button in POP OVER
    • clarify button text for "add" + "add & new" to make it more understandable. For example, "add another" + "save & exit"
    • how to show user that they've added a drug successfully?
    • consider closing the "add drug" window each time they add a drug, and make them click "add drug" button again.
    • or, use a "flash message" like in JIRA. after a user adds a drug, the popup window is maintained but has a small message the says "Drug <name> added.". That way the user knows that their task was successful, even if they can't see the list of all drugs while the popup is obscuring it.
  • "Lab"
    • Put the test name in the place of Date and Date in the same line as the Test Results
  • "Review of Systems" Tab within History
    • system name (dropdown) + notes (free text entry)
    • For future, would it be possible categorize the important questions for each system? E.g. a checklist of 10 most common things that a doctor notes for each system. You can simply check these (if applicable) and put additional notes only if needed.
