Description

  The present invention relates to a prescription and receipt data processing system.

  In general, a dispensing pharmacy requests a medical remuneration statement, a so-called receipt, from the insurance fund once a month. When submitting a medical remuneration statement of more than 2000 points to the insurance fund when submitting this medical remuneration request, output the receipt with a printer, etc., and then submit a copy of the prescription applicable to the receipt. is doing.

  Prescriptions are obliged to be stored for 3 years. Generally, prescriptions for about 3 months are stored at hand, and older items are managed in a warehouse or the like.

  However, when prescriptions are managed in a warehouse etc. as described above, it is difficult to secure a place depending on the number of prescriptions, or if it is necessary to have a place older than 3 months, it can be easily removed. I can not.

  Conventionally, prescription data is filed, but prescription data and prescriptions are managed separately, so it is not possible to submit a receipt bill together with a copy of the prescription when claiming a high-priced receipt. However, there is a problem that it depends on the hand of a pharmacist or the like and takes time.

  The present invention has been made in order to solve the above-described problems, and it is an object of the present invention to make it easier and simpler to manage prescriptions and submit a high-priced receipt together with a copy of the prescription.

The prescription and receipt data processing system according to the present invention made to solve the above-mentioned problems includes a computer having storage means for storing the receipt data based on the prescription for each patient and the image data of the prescription in association with each other, The computer reads the receipt data stored in the storage means, determines whether or not the receipt data is related to a high-priced receipt based on the score of the receipt in the read-out receipt data, and Output the received receipt data and image data of a prescription associated with the receipt data, and if it is determined that the receipt is not a high-priced receipt, only the read receipt data is output. To do.

In particular, the storage means preferably stores the receipt data and the prescription image data in association with identification data for identifying a patient.

The receipt data can be output as a receipt claim, and output means capable of outputting the prescription image data as a copy of the prescription is connected to the computer. When it is determined that the receipt is a high-priced receipt, the read receipt data and the prescription image data associated with the receipt data are received from the output means as a copy of the receipt bill and the prescription corresponding to the receipt bill. It is preferable to output continuously.

  According to the present invention, since the receipt data and the prescription image data can be output continuously, the prescription image data can be easily and reliably attached when the receipt data is high-priced receipt data. be able to. Therefore, it is possible to shorten the time and save labor for workers.

  Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a schematic explanatory view showing an embodiment of a prescription filing system according to the present invention.

  In FIG. 1, 1 is described in patient data relating to a patient such as a patient's name, patient ID, dispensing date, insurance type, etc., data of a reception number that is associated with a patient and a dispensing date and serves as an identification code, and a prescription This indicates a computer installed in a dispensing pharmacy or the like, which can input prescription data indicating the contents of a prescription such as the name and quantity of the medicines being used. The computer 1 is connected to a scanner 2 provided close to the computer 1.

  The computer 1 is connected to the host computer 3 via a communication line 5 such as a telephone line, and data registered by the computer 1 is transmitted to the host computer 3 as storage means in the host computer 3. The hard disk can be stored as a database. The host computer 3 stores a program capable of generating receipt data when prescription data is input, and as a receipt computer having a calculation means for calculating receipt data from prescription data based on the program. Plays the role of

  Next, the host computer 3 is connected to a printer 4 as an output means via a cable or the like, and data such as prescription image data and receipt data based on an instruction from the host computer 3 is output from the printer 4. The computer 1, the host computer 3, the printer 4, and the communication line 5 constitute a prescription and receipt data processing system.

  The prescription and receipt data processing system configured as described above is used as follows. First, in the dispensing pharmacy, after inputting patient data and prescription data indicating the contents of the prescription, the prescription is read from the scanner 2 and registered in the computer 1 as prescription image data. At this time, the prescription data, the prescription image data, and the patient data are linked via a receipt number as an identification code.

  The data input to the computer 1 is transmitted to the host computer 3 through the communication line 5 and is stored in a database in which patient data, receipt number data, and prescription data are linked to the hard disk in the host computer 3. It is stored in the form, i.e. filed in the host computer 3.

  Then, when submitting a receipt bill once a month, the host computer 3 calculates the receipt data indicating the number of receipts from the prescription data for one month for each patient. And the prescription data are connected and stored (see step S1 in FIG. 2).

  The data input to the host computer 3 as described above is output as follows. First, when a receipt number or patient name as identification data is input to the computer 1 and the host computer 3 is inquired to output receipt data for a certain patient, the host computer 3 receives a receipt linked to the identification data. Data is sent back to the computer 1. It is confirmed by the operator of the computer 1 whether or not the receipt data is for the inquired patient (step S2 in FIG. 2).

  At this time, the host computer 3 determines whether or not the receipt is a so-called high-priced receipt with a score of 2000 or more (step S3 in FIG. 2). (Receipt data) is output as a receipt claim form by the printer 4 (step S6 in FIG. 2), and the prescription image data is retrieved in the host computer 3 to output prescription image data for one month of the patient. (Step S7 in FIG. 2), an instruction is issued from the host computer 3 to the printer 4 to output the image data of the corresponding prescription by the printer 4 (Step S8 in FIG. 2). That is, a copy of the prescription to be attached to the receipt claim slip is created.

  Then, it is checked whether or not the image data of all prescriptions to be attached to the receipt claim slip has been output from the printer 4, and if not, the printer 4 is instructed to output again. At this time, the operator can select whether to output only the prescription image data of the missing day or to output all the prescription image data of the patient again even if processing is performed on the computer 1. It may be configured.

  When it is confirmed that the image data of all prescriptions related to the patient has been output from the printer 4, the host computer 3 is prepared so that the computer 1 can inquire the next patient data (step of FIG. 2). S8), the process returns to step S2 of FIG.

  If the number of receipts is less than 2000, that is, not a high-value receipt, only the receipt data is output from the printer 4 (step S4 in FIG. 2) so that the computer 1 can inquire about the next patient data. Then, the host computer 3 is prepared (step S5 in FIG. 2), and the process returns to the above-described step S2 in FIG.

  In this way, since the output of the prescription image data and the high-priced receipt data can be continuously performed by the same printer 4, even when the prescription image data is attached to the high-priced receipt data and submitted together, It can be done easily and accurately without confusion.

  In addition, since the receipt data and the prescription image data are connected by an identification code, it is not necessary to artificially connect the receipt data and the prescription image data artificially, and a copy of the prescription is attached to a high-priced receipt In addition, it can be easily confirmed. Labor saving can be achieved. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the time for an operator to submit a copy of a prescription attached to a high-priced receipt, and to save labor.

  In the above-described embodiment, data is output from the printer 4 based on an instruction from the host computer 3, but the printer 4 is connected to the computer 1, the computer 1 inquires the host computer 3 about the data, and the data is transmitted to the computer. It is also possible to instruct output from 1 to the printer 4.

  In the above-described embodiment, the receipt number is input manually. However, for example, a barcode sticker may be pasted on a prescription in advance, and the barcode seal may be read by a barcode reader. In this case, the prescription filing system is provided with a bar code reader, and the bar code reader is connected to the computer, so that the reception number is automatically input as data into the computer. As described above, when a barcode is used to input a receipt number, there is an advantage that the receipt number can be easily and accurately input.

  Further, although the hard disk is used as an example of the storage means in the host computer in the above embodiment, the storage means can be appropriately changed such as a magneto-optical disk (MO).

  In the above-described embodiment, the prescription / receipt data processing system is configured to include the host computer and the computer. However, the prescription / receipt data processing system is set to 1 by incorporating a program for calculating the receipt data in the computer. It is also possible to configure with a single computer.

  Furthermore, in the above-described embodiment, the change in output when the receipt data is high-priced receipt data and when it is not, may be programmed in advance so that the reception computer side automatically determines as described above. You may check it with your own eyes.

  In the above-described embodiment, in the case of high-priced receipt data, the receipt data and the prescription image data are output continuously from one printer, which is the same output device, but as shown in FIG. In addition, a plurality of, for example, two printers 4 are provided, and the printers 4 and 4 are provided with conveyors 7 and 7 as paper conveying means arranged in a cylindrical body, and a sorter 8, and receive data for each printer. It is also possible to configure the prescription and receipt data processing system such that after the prescription image data is output separately, the receipt data for each patient and the prescription image data are continuously output by the sorter 8.

  That is, one end of the reception conveyors 7 and 7 is connected to a paper outlet of each printer 4 and 4 from which a paper 6 such as a receipt bill or a copy of a prescription is taken out. 6 flows through the conveyors 7 and 7 as the paper conveying means, and from the other end of the conveyors 7 and 7 to the paper holding bases 9, 9... Provided in the sorter 8 as the paper rearranging means. The printers 4, 4, the conveyors 7, 7 and the sorter 8 are arranged so as to be conveyed.

  The sorter 8 is configured such that the paper holding bases 9, 9... Can be operated in the vertical direction, and each paper holding base 9 holds paper such as a receipt bill for one patient and a copy of a prescription. As described above, the sorter 8 and the reception computer are connected so that the sorter 8 is operated by the receipt computer so that the sheets are rearranged by the sorter 8.

  As described above, when paper is output using a plurality of printers, there is an advantage that the time required for output can be shortened compared with the case where a single printer is used.

  The paper conveying means may be not only the above-mentioned conveyor but also a cylindrical body in which a plurality of rollers are arranged, for example. In short, any material can be used as long as it can convey paper. Also, the paper rearranging means is not limited to the sorter, and can be appropriately changed as long as the paper can be rearranged.

  The prescription / receipt data processing system includes a storage unit that stores prescription data for each patient and image data of the prescription, and a calculation unit that can calculate receipt data from the prescription data. Sometimes when receiving the receipt data as a receipt bill, when the receipt data is expensive receipt data, the prescription image data corresponding to the receipt data can be output continuously with the receipt data. it can. In this way, when the receipt data is expensive receipt data, if the prescription image data corresponding to the receipt data can be output simultaneously with the receipt data, the output of the prescription image data and the expensive receipt data can be performed at a time. It can be carried out. Therefore, it is possible to easily and accurately attach the output of the prescription image data to the output of the high-priced receipt data.
