Description

Checkout system for hospital

Technical Field

The invention relates to the technical field of medical management, in particular to a hospital checkout system.

Background

Hospital management Information System (collectively referred to as Hospital Information System), the HIS System. The conventional modules comprise outpatient management, hospitalization management, pharmacy management, drug library management, hospital chief inquiry, electronic prescriptions, material management, media management and the like, and provide more powerful guarantee for hospital management. The HIS system takes financial information, patient information and material information as main lines, and provides comprehensive and accurate various data for leaders of hospitals and managers of all departments in time through information collection, storage, transmission, statistics, analysis, comprehensive query, report output and information sharing. In the existing system, the module for settlement and payment of the hospital admission and discharge fees has the defects of complex flow and various payment items, and cannot meet the requirements of hospital management and patient service along with the increasing number of patients in hospital admission and discharge.

Regarding the payment mode of hospital admission and discharge fees, the traditional payment mode is that an operator manually issues invoices and a hospitalization fee list, and a patient concentrates on the admission and discharge department to register payment, so that the congestion of a payment link is easily caused. Meanwhile, the operator needs to check the hospital expense bill with the patient repeatedly, and a great deal of time and energy are consumed for the patient. If the hospitalization cost is inconsistent with the actual use degree, the patient needs to return to the ward to check the actual hospitalization detail with the nurse according to the medical procedure, and a large amount of patient payment time is wasted.

The self-service payment mode is that a patient category is generated based on the HIS system, a corresponding in-patient payment list is associated, and the patient can inquire the patient category and the in-patient fee of the patient through the self-service device and the in-patient subsystem, so that the corresponding in-patient fee list is checked out. Compared with the traditional mode, the self-service payment mode eliminates the problems of paper document storage and carrying, and the category and the hospitalization cost information of the patient are inquired through the card number, so that the information of the patient is prevented from being mistaken. However, aiming at the old patients or the patients with inconvenient actions, the self-service device highlights two problems:

1) the old patient can not freely operate the self-service device, and the patient category and the payment link are identified, so that great time and energy are consumed;

2) the self-service device is too large, the installation position is far away from the patient room, and the time of the payment process is increased;

3) when the patient inquires the hospitalization expense list through the self-service device and finds that the hospitalization expense list is inconsistent with the actual hospitalization expense, the patient still needs to check the expense detail of the hospitalization period back and forth with a nurse, and a lot of time is consumed.

Detailed Description

The invention aims to solve the problem that the prior art is that the prior method for processing the registration payment for admission and discharge of a hospital is a manual payment scheme, wherein in the manual payment scheme, a doctor generates an electronic admission order in an outpatient doctor workstation to indicate that a patient can be admitted. Meanwhile, the backstage associates the patient information and the type of the doctor visit (types of medical insurance, charge, dry insurance and the like) to the card number. The patient is charged in the charging window, the charging system inquires whether there is admission bill by card number, if there is application bill, the system transfers the patient information, diagnosis information and diagnosis type and displays them on the front desk, the charging window personnel checks the information in the front desk of the system in combination with the pre-payment calculation rule set by the hospital, thus the pre-payment amount is calculated manually, and the patient can pay the pre-payment after confirming the amount and the information of the patient are correct. After the charging window personnel confirm that the amount of money is correct and store the charging information, the system prints corresponding paper credentials and prompts admission. The processing mode realizes link access of admission registration and payment of the advance payment, and is also the current mainstream admission payment mode. However, the problem that the physician needs to visit the hospital slowly in the interim is that the toll window cannot work for a long time, and the distance from the physician to the toll window is long, which causes inconvenience. The other method is a self-service admission payment scheme, and self-service equipment is required to be provided, so that a patient can finish prepayment payment on the equipment, an unattended payment mode can be better realized, a long-time operation can be realized, the window payment distance is reduced, and the admission payment process is simplified. The problem faced by the current method is that the background settlement mode and the payment interface can not be highly integrated, thereby restricting the hardware expansion of the self-service device, causing the single charging channel and being incapable of dealing with various payment platforms. In addition, the self-service system developed at present cannot automatically calculate the prepayment amount through the outpatient service information, so that when a patient pays by the self-service equipment, the patient needs to automatically judge the medical type, and whether the diagnosis information and the patient information are correct, so that a closed loop of an effective self-service link cannot be formed.

When the patient finds that the expense details are not in accordance with the actual condition, the system provides a nurse reminding function, the nurse receives the expense detail confirmation reminding through the nurse workstation, reconfirms the expense details, if the expense details are not in accordance, cancels the current payment process, cancels the out-of-area state of the patient, and re-records the expense. If the expense details are confirmed to be in accordance with the practical use degree, the patient is visited to the ward to communicate with the patient. And then entering a payment link. According to the actual conditions of the hospital, data cannot be directly modified on an expense query interface, only expense modification is carried out on a nurse workstation, more medicines are returned, the meals are not eaten, the meals are returned, and certainly supplement can be carried out.

In step 407, the ward nurse checks the in-patient details with the patient and the nurse workstation performs the out-of-range operation.

In step 408, the system critical link audit mechanism determines whether the user's prepaid funds are sufficient to cover all the costs incurred during the hospital stay before admission. If so, step 410 is entered for a remainder refund. If not, go to step 411 and select payment method to make up.

In step 410, the system balances the hospitalization costs and refunds excess costs.

In step 411, the system will enter the link of paying the hospitalization fee, and the terminal will prompt the user to select the payment mode, including: medical insurance card payment, cash payment, mobile payment, and bank card payment. The patient finishes payment information input through the mobile intelligent device, and can obtain payment process information and transaction settlement reminding through a screen. When the medical insurance of the hospitalization cost can be completely reimbursed, the medical insurance card is used. Otherwise, if the self-fee cost exists, the payment is carried out by cash, a payment treasure, a bank card, WeChat and other modes. As the three different entering and settlement modes of payment are respectively,

payment in cash: the manual collection and currency detection of the currency counting machine are adopted, and the currency counting machine has the functions of identifying the authenticity of the currency and calculating the amount of the currency and supports 10 yuan or more of the denomination of the currency. After the paper money is manually counted and received, the paper money is stored in a paper money box, and the money is cleared in the paper money box by the opening date of Chinese bank personnel.

Mobile payment: mobile payments include WeChat and Payment. The user adopts and uses the payment of mobile platform, and the two kinds of APP payments of precious and little letter of payment module support the removal end of system payment. Money paid through the mobile platform can get into the precious account of paying or the account of paying money of hospital, and financial staff checks the account in the hospital every other day, ensures that the transaction is normal.

Bank card: the user adopts the bank card to pay, currently supports the bank cards of China banks and Xingyi banks, and both banks provide the statement each month.

In step 412, the system obtains payment according to the payment method of the user. The main program verifies whether the payment of the in-hospital account, the payment treasure and the financial payment account is successful, if the payment is successful, the 413 is entered; if not, proceed to 411.

In step 413, the system determines whether the transaction reaches the amount according to the transaction rule, and if so, enters step 415; if not, step 414 is entered.

In step 414, the system determines whether to continue recharging, if so, returns to 410; if not, prompting a window to return the fee, and ending the transaction.
