DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a medical office machine for managing bills. In a medical office dedicated machine, it is necessary to input the daily medical contents to a computer in order to write the medical contents for each patient for one month in a claim (medical fee statement) and make an insurance claim.

[0002] Receipt bills are created for each patient from the contents input by the operator. These bills are collectively managed and necessary information is extracted. However, various operations can be considered in the operation of each hospital and clinic, but it was not always possible, and the patient could not be extracted.
For example, 100% matching extraction could not be performed for the management of receipts across dates and the operation of hospitals and clinics that close registers several times a day.

Therefore, it is necessary to manage receipts and extract necessary information according to the operating mode of each hospital.

[0004]

2. Description of the Related Art In a conventional medical office machine, a receipt bill is managed for each patient. That is, a bill for invoice is obtained from the act of performing medical treatment, and a receipt bill file for storing the contents of the receipt bill information for each patient. This receipt bill file is shown in FIG.

[0005] In FIG. 10, the receipt bill file is
In / Out section, patient No., billing date, bill No., billing amount,
It consists of items such as deposit amount, unpaid amount, total billed amount, consumption tax target amount, daily report exclusion, etc. This receipt bill file is created by dividing information (records) for each patient.

Hereinafter, each item will be described. (1) Incoming / Outgoing Category The conditions for creating the receipt invoice information are when outpatient accounting, discharge accounting, and inpatient periodic billing are executed, and are the categories for judging under which conditions to create these. For example, 1: outpatient accounting preparation, 2: discharge accounting preparation, 3: inpatient periodic billing preparation.

[0007] The preparation of an inpatient periodic bill means that the patient is continuously in the hospital, but the bill is paid by the patient in 10 days, 20 days, 1 month, etc. This is a method for creating a receipt bill that requests a patient to make a request through management or the like. (2) Patient No. This is a reference number issued for each patient in order for each hospital / clinic to manage medical records.

[0008] This information becomes the ID for judging the patient. (3) Billing date This is information that stores the date of billing as a date (AD). It stores the system date. (4) Invoice No. A serial number assigned to manage the receipt invoice for each patient and to manage the register by the hospital / clinic. (5) to (10) Claimed amount to consumption tax This area stores the breakdown of the amount of billed receipts generated for each patient. (11) Daily report exclusion A created invoice is extracted in a daily report form, and it is information that manages whether or not to extract it on a daily report form by a numeral. It can be changed by the operator, and the system can be set automatically. For example, 0: extraction, 1: no extraction. Next, a method of extracting the receipt bill information stored in the receipt bill file will be described.

[0009] The owner bill information of the created receipt bill file is extracted daily as a daily report or screen display. This daily report printing process or screen display process is shown in FIG.
Shown in In FIG. 11, reference numeral 1 denotes a screen showing a daily report operation;
Is a receipt invoice file, 3 is a printer that prints daily reports,
Reference numeral 4 denotes a display unit for displaying a daily report.

First, a condition for performing extraction is designated from a screen 1 showing a daily report operation. The designation conditions include a billing date, an incoming / outgoing classification, a bill No. range, and the like. Next, the receipt invoice file 2 is accessed according to the designated extraction condition, and the receipt bill information corresponding to the designated condition is determined. And
The determined receipt invoice information is extracted as a form and output from the printer 3, or is extracted and output on the screen of the display unit 4.

[0011]

In the operation of the receipt bill management of each hospital / clinic, the register may be closed at 3:00 PM, for example. That is, one day is from 0:00 to 0: 0
If you can handle it with 24 hours system of 0, no problem will occur,
In the case of dealings with a bank or the like, it is necessary to demand daily sales at 3:00 PM.

It is also conceivable that the accounting department is provided separately from the administrative department in the hospital, and the delivery to the department is determined to be 3:00 PM. In this case, PM3: 0 on the day
Receipt bill data after 0 is managed in the hospital as next day data together with data until 3:00 PM on the next day. That is, for example, as shown in FIG.
If you want to close the register at 5:00,
Data from 5:00 to 24:00 on September 9 is treated as data on September 10, and data on September 8 at 15:00 is used.
The data from 00:00 to 24:00 on September 8 must be treated as data on September 9.

However, although the contents of the receipt invoice information file are described in FIG.
A 24-hour system date from 00 to 0:00 is stored. That is, as shown in FIG. 13, a 24-hour system is extracted. Therefore, data after 3:00 PM cannot be extracted by specifying the date of the next day (daily report operation screen).

FIG. 14 shows an example of closing the register a plurality of times a day. FIG. 14 is at 8:00 and 12:00.
The case of closing the register three times a day at 17:00 and 17:00 is shown. In this case as well, there are the same problems as in the case described above, and it is not possible to extract in the corresponding tightening unit.

As described above, in the conventional example, it was not possible to manage the receipt bill and extract necessary information according to the operation form of each hospital. The present invention has been made in view of such a conventional problem, and has as its object to efficiently perform receipt bill management and extract necessary receipt claim information according to the operation mode of each hospital. I do.

The setting of the tightening section is automatically performed by the system, not by the operator. The flag length is a one-digit number type, in which the number of times of tightening of 1 to 9 is stored.

Based on the value of the closing category, it is possible to judge the number of the receipt bill closed in the year, month and day, and it is possible to extract necessary receipt bill information. Reference numeral 21 denotes a system management information file. The system management information file 21 is provided to manage the entire system. The system management information file 21 is additionally provided with closing management information for performing closing management.

FIG. 4 shows an example of the closing management information. In FIG. 4, the closing management information includes a current closing state, a previous closing state, and a closing use category. It should be noted that, depending on the number of times of tightening, a state before the last tightening is added. For example, when tightening twice a day, the second-last tightening state is added to the last tightening state.

The items in the currently closed state are as follows. Invoice No. (outside): Stores the latest invoice No. that indicates how many invoices No. are currently touched. By managing this information, there is no need to access extra records beyond this No.

Invoice No. (in): Stores the latest invoice No. indicating how many invoices No. are currently assigned. (Discharge preparation and inpatient periodic billing preparation are regarded as hospitalization,
By managing this information, there is no need to access extra records beyond this No.

Closing date: As a process for updating the system management information file, "closing (date)
There is a process referred to as "process", and stores a processing date (system date) at which the current closing process is executed. Closing category: Stores the current number of closings. The closing section of the receipt invoice information file is multi-updated by the number of times. The items in the last closed state are as follows. Invoice No. (external): Stores the final invoice No. for the outpatient preparation at the time of performing the previous closing process. By managing this information, there is no need to access extra records beyond this No.

Invoice No. (in): Stores the final invoice No. created by hospitalization at the time of performing the previous closing process.
(The part created by the discharge and the part created by the in-patient regular bill are stored as hospitalization.) By managing this information, it is not necessary to access an extra record of No. or more.

Closing date: The processing date when the previous closing process was performed is stored. (Year / Month / Day) Closing category: Stores the number of times the previous closing process was performed. The closing use category is a category for specifying whether to perform the closing management or not.

For example, it is assumed that 0: the closing management is not performed, and 1: the closing management is performed. The 24-hour system (0: 00 to 0:
In the clinic where the operation is performed in (00), a closed use category is added in order to enable the operation mode as before. By this division, it is possible to make the extraction screen layout of the daily report business variable.

When the closing management is performed by using the closing use categories, the daily report operation is changed and displayed on the display screen of the display unit 18 as shown in FIG. As shown in FIG.
It is possible to specify the extraction from the closing times of month x day to the closing times of year x month x day. When the closing management is not performed by setting the closing use category to “0”, the daily report is displayed on the display unit 18 on a display screen similar to the conventional one, as shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 6, this is an extraction designation of year, year, month, day, and the same extraction as in the past is possible.

Next, the system management information file 21
This is an information file for managing the entire system.
In order to keep these information up-to-date, the CPU 15 updates the file by performing a closing process. The updating method will be described with reference to FIG. (1) The previous closing state information is updated with the current closing state information.

(2) The current bill No. information is cleared,
Prepare a new system to start from No. 1. (3) Update the closing date with the date when the closing process was executed. (4) Count up by one each for the closing category. By keeping the value of the closing section of the current closing state information up to date, the closing section of the receipt
It can be updated with the latest closing section.

By managing the previous closing state and the current closing state, the date range of the billing date on the extraction screen (daily report work) can be initially displayed. For example, PM
When closed once a day at 3:00 (data before PM 3:00 is "0", after that "1" is stored) Previous closing state (processing date September 8, 1992, closing category)
1) Current closing status (processing date September 9, 1992, closing category)
0) At 3:00 PM on the 9th, when trying to perform a daily report (extraction) of the day, the corresponding data is actually “1” at the end of the 8th.
Is the data for the closing “0” on the 9th.

That is, if the previous state and the current state are managed, it is possible to obtain a range from where to where to extract this time. By initially displaying this value on the extraction screen (daily report business), the operator can specify the extraction without being aware of the range. Next, the operation will be described more specifically.

As shown in FIG. 8, once a day PM 3:00
To close the register. Here, September 8 PM
FIG. 9A shows a data storage form before 3:00. The tightening category is “0”. In this data storage form,
The closing process is executed at 3:00 PM on September 8.

Next, FIG. 9B shows a data storage form after 3:00 PM on September 8th. The tightening category is “1”. That is, when the power is turned on every morning, the system management information file 21 is automatically updated as if the closing process was performed for the purpose of creating the receipt bill file 20 for today.

Next, in the data storage form before 3:00 PM on September 9, as shown in FIG. 9C, the closing category is "0", and the data storage form after 3:00 PM on September 9 is stored. The form is “1” as shown in FIG. 9 (D). When closing at 3:00 PM on September 9th, first, a designated condition is designated from a daily report operation screen as shown in FIG. The designation conditions include a billing date, an incoming / outgoing classification, a bill No., and the like.

Here, since the closing once on September 8th, ○
The extraction is specified up to zero times on September 9, 2011. next,
Receipt invoice file 2 according to specified extraction conditions
0 is accessed, and the receipt information corresponding to the designated condition is determined. Next, the determined receipt information is stored in the printer 1.
6, or displayed on the screen of the display unit 18.

In the case where the register is closed a plurality of times a day, for example, twice, the closed state is added to the system management information file 21. As a result, it is possible to extract necessary one-day receipt bill information, and it is also possible to perform extraction on a per-unit basis. As described above, it is possible to manage the receipt bill and extract the necessary receipt bill information according to the operation form of each hospital. Further, the processing efficiency (response) can be improved by the closing management information of the system management information file 24.

Since the conventional master resource can be used as it is, the transition at the time of replacement can be performed smoothly.
