Description

  The present invention relates to a merchandise sales data processing apparatus such as an ECR (Electronic Cash Register) suitable for use in a medical institution, and a computer program used by being installed in the merchandise sales data processing apparatus.

  Conventionally, an ECR suitable for use outside a general store such as a store has become widespread. For example, Patent Document 1 discloses an ECR in which sales information of products for which medical expenses are deducted can be collectively printed out so as to be suitable for use in pharmacies and drug stores.

  ECR is also used in medical institutions. In such a storage device built in the ECR (ECR for medical institutions), points for each medical item (for example, “first visit = 270 points”, “injection = 600 points”, etc.), a point unit price (1 Information necessary for calculating the patient burden amount such as (dot = 10 yen) is stored. The CPU of the medical institution ECR calculates the patient burden based on these pieces of information.

  FIG. 12 is a flowchart showing an example of the flow of conventional processing executed when calculating the patient burden. If the medical care item key provided on the ECR keyboard is pressed, the CPU accesses the storage device and acquires the corresponding score (step S401). Then, when the lock key is pressed (Y in step S402), the CPU calculates an amount (pre-payment amount) obtained by multiplying the total of the obtained points (total score) by the point unit price (1 point = 10 yen) (step). S403), the patient burden amount is calculated based on the pre-burden amount and the patient burden ratio (step S404).

JP 2000-306165 A

  By the way, a medical institution sometimes performs free medical care for a patient having a traffic accident or the like. At that time, the unit price for free medical care (for example, 1 point = 20 yen) uniquely determined by a medical institution or the like may be applied to the calculation of the patient burden, instead of the unit price for normal medical care (1 point = 10 yen). is there.

  However, since the ECR storage device does not store information about the unit price in free medical care, the ECR operator needs to calculate the patient burden using the calculation function inherently provided by the ECR. . For example, in step S403 of the flowchart of FIG. 12, the operator himself / herself operates the numeric keypad to input a free medical unit price, and further, an operation is required to multiply the inputted free medical unit price by the total number of medical items. become. Such an operation is more complicated than an operation for calculating a patient burden amount in normal medical care, and becomes a great burden on the operator of the ECR.

  An object of the present invention is to enable easy calculation of a patient burden when free medical care is selected.

  A merchandise sales data processing apparatus according to the present invention includes an information processing unit that executes information processing, an operation unit, and a printer that prints and issues information on a receipt sheet, and the information processing unit includes: In response to a first operation, storage information of free medical care is stored in a storage area, and in response to a second operation of the operation unit, the declaration information of free medical care stored in the storage area is erased, Accepting an input of a medical item by an operation of the operation unit, searching a storage area in which the medical item and a score are stored in association with each other, acquiring a score corresponding to the input medical item, and storing the score in the storage area A storage area for storing the free medical unit price if the storage area stores the determination information on whether or not the declaration of the free medical care is stored in the storage area. From said free medical treatment unit price If it is acquired as a point unit price and stored in the storage area, and the declaration information of the free practice is not stored in the storage area, the normal unit price is acquired as a point unit price from the storage area in which the normal unit price is stored. Stored in the storage area and stored in the storage area where the total score calculated by summing the points stored in the storage area, the unit price stored in the storage area, and the patient's burden ratio are stored. The patient burden amount is calculated based on the determined burden ratio and stored in the storage area, and in accordance with a third operation of the operation unit, the printer stores the score stored in the storage area and the storage area The printing information including the point unit price stored in the storage area and the patient burden stored in the storage area is printed on a receipt sheet and issued.

  The computer program of the present invention is installed in a product sales data processing apparatus having a computer configuration that includes an information processing unit that executes information processing, an operation unit, and a printer that prints and issues information on receipt paper. In the sales data processing apparatus, the information processing unit has a function of storing declaration information of free medical care in a storage area in response to a first operation of the operation unit, and the information processing unit is a second of the operation unit. A function of erasing the declaration information of the free medical care stored in the storage area in response to the operation of the medical information, the information processing unit accepts the input of the medical care item by the operation of the operation unit, Is stored in the storage area, the score corresponding to the input medical item is acquired and stored in the storage area, and the information processing unit A function for determining whether or not declaration information of the free medical care is stored in the area, and if the information processing unit stores the declaration information of the free medical care in the storage area, the free medical unit price is stored. A function for acquiring the free medical unit price as a point unit price from the storage area and storing it in the storage area, and if the information processing unit does not store the declaration information of the free medical care in the storage area, A function for acquiring the normal medical unit price as a point unit price from the storage area in which the information is stored and storing it in the storage area, and a total score calculated by summing up the points stored in the storage area, A function of calculating a patient burden based on the point unit price stored in the storage area and the burden ratio stored in the storage area in which the patient burden ratio is stored, and storing it in the storage area; In response to a third operation of the operation unit, the information processing unit causes the printer to store a score stored in the storage area, a unit price stored in the storage area, and a patient burden stored in the storage area. And a function of printing information including a forehead on a receipt sheet and issuing it.

  According to the present invention, since the patient burden can be calculated by switching between the normal medical unit price and the free medical unit price, not only the calculation of the patient burden in the normal medical care but also the calculation of the patient burden when the free medical care is selected. Can also be carried out easily.

  An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. The merchandise sales data processing apparatus according to the present embodiment is an application example to an ECR (Electronic Cash Register) used in a medical institution such as a clinic.

  FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an ECR 101 of the present embodiment. The ECR 101 is installed and used at the reception of a clinic, for example. The ECR 101 has a housing 201. On the upper surface of the housing 201, a keyboard 202 as an operation unit, a display unit 203, and a second display unit 204 are arranged. A placement table 207 for temporarily placing coins or bills received from a patient is provided in front of the upper surface of the housing 201. The housing 201 is provided with a printer cover 205. A receipt issuing port 206 is formed in the printer cover 205. Inside the printer cover 205, a printer 261 (see FIG. 3) for printing a receipt is provided. The printer 261 is a receipt / journal printer. In the final process (see FIG. 10) executed by the ECR 101, the printer 261 prints print information on a receipt sheet and issues it from the receipt issue port 206, and simultaneously prints on a journal sheet. A mode lock 208 is provided on the upper surface of the housing 201. A mode key (not shown) is inserted into the mode lock 208, and the mode of the ECR 101 is changed by changing the position of the inserted mode key.

  The ECR 101 is placed on the drawer 301. A drawer 302 for storing coins and banknotes is provided inside the drawer 301 so as to be freely drawn out and stored.

  FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram showing the keyboard 202. The keyboard 202 is a keyboard having a plurality of keys. The keyboard 202 includes, for example, a numeric keypad 211 for inputting numbers, a medical care selection key 212, a burden ratio key 213 for selecting and inputting a patient's burden ratio, and a medical care item key for selecting and inputting a medical care item. 216, a fastening key 214, a final fastening key 215, and the like. Numbers are displayed on the upper surface of the numeric keypad 211.

  On the upper surface of the medical care selection key 212, the characters “medical care selection” are displayed. On the upper surface of the burden ratio key 213, numbers indicating the burden ratio (for example, “10%”, “30%”, etc.) are displayed. On the upper surface of the medical treatment item key 216, characters (for example, “injection”) indicating the medical treatment item are displayed. For example, the letters “subtotal” are displayed on the upper surface of the closing key 214, and the letters “deposit / cash total” are displayed on the upper surface of the final closing key 215, for example.

  For each key such as the medical care selection key 212, any key included in the keyboard 202 can be selected and assigned. This key assignment will be described later (see FIG. 6).

  FIG. 3 is a block diagram showing an electrical hardware configuration of the ECR 101. The ECR 101 has a microcomputer 255 inside. The core of the microcomputer 255 is a CPU 251 as an information processing unit that executes information processing. The CPU 251 receives a ROM 252 that fixedly stores fixed data including a computer program via a bus line 256, a RAM 253 that stores variable data in a rewritable manner and functions as a work storage area, and data including a computer program. A non-volatile flash memory 254 that stores data in a rewritable manner is connected. The CPU 251 executes various types of information processing according to computer programs stored in the ROM 252 and the flash memory 254.

  Furthermore, a keyboard 202, a display unit 203, a second display unit 204, a printer 261, and a drawer 301 are connected to the CPU 251 via a bus line 256 and an interface (not shown).

  In the RAM 253, a declaration information storage area 411 is provided as a storage area. The declaration information storage area 411 stores declaration information for free medical care (see FIG. 7). For example, the declaration information storage area 411 is a flag storage area, and a flag is set in the declaration information storage area 411 as declaration information for free medical care.

  In the work area of the RAM 253, a transaction information file F in which various information is stored as a storage area is formed for each transaction.

  The flash memory 254 stores a computer program. The flash memory 254 stores a normal medical unit price storage area 431 (see FIG. 4) as a storage area in which the normal medical unit price is stored, and a free medical unit price storage area 441 (see FIG. 4) as a storage area in which the free medical unit price is stored. A medical item storage area 421 (see FIG. 5) as a storage area in which medical items and points are stored in association with each other, and a burden ratio storage area 451 as a storage area in which the patient's burden ratio is stored. It has been.

  A load ratio corresponding to the load ratio key 213 is stored in the load ratio storage area 451 provided in the flash memory 254. For example, the burden ratio “30%” is stored in association with the burden ratio key 213 displaying “30%”. Therefore, if the burden ratio key 213 displaying “30%” is pressed, the CPU 251 acquires the corresponding burden ratio “30%” from the burden ratio storage area 451. The CPU 251 stores the acquired burden ratio in the transaction information file F. In addition, it is not restricted to the form which acquires the corresponding burden ratio by pressing down the burden ratio key 213 for every transaction, but the burden ratio (for example, "30%") set as default by pressing down the closing key 214 May be acquired and stored in the transaction information file F. The burden ratio corresponding to the burden ratio key 213 can be changed by operating the keyboard 202, for example.

  FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram showing a data configuration of the normal medical unit price storage area 431 and the free medical unit price storage area 441. The normal medical unit price storage area 431 and the free medical unit price storage area 441 are provided in the flash memory 254. The normal medical unit price storage area 431 stores the normal medical unit price per point. The normal medical unit price per point is 10 yen. The free medical unit price storage area 441 stores the free medical unit price per point. The free medical unit price per point is 20 yen.

  Both the normal medical unit price storage area 431 and the free medical unit price storage area 441 can be rewritten. That is, the normal medical unit price and the free medical unit price per point can be changed by operating the keyboard 202, for example.

  FIG. 5 is a schematic diagram showing a data configuration of the medical care item storage area 421. The medical item storage area 421 includes a medical item code storage area 422 in which medical item codes assigned to the medical items are stored, an item storage area 423 in which medical items are stored, and a point storage area in which points are stored. 424 and a status storage area 425 in which various statuses are stored. The medical item code, the medical item, the score, and the status are associated with each other and stored in the medical item storage area 421. The status includes information about whether the corresponding medical item is a score department or a money department, and whether the corresponding medical item is insured or not insured. Accordingly, when the corresponding medical treatment item is a money amount department, the point storage area 424 corresponding to the medical treatment item stores the amount, not the point.

  The stored contents of the medical item storage area 421 are associated with the medical item key 216. For example, the medical treatment item key 216 on which “injection” is displayed is associated with the medical treatment item “injection” and the score corresponding thereto. Therefore, if the medical treatment item key 216 on which “injection” is displayed is pressed, the CPU 251 acquires the corresponding medical treatment item, score, and status from the medical treatment item storage area 421. The CPU 251 stores the acquired medical treatment item, score, and status in the transaction information file F.

  As for the medical care item storage area 421, the stored contents can be rewritten. For example, the score corresponding to one medical item stored in the item storage area 423 can be changed by operating the keyboard 202 or the like.

  By the way, as described above, any key included in the keyboard 202 can be selected and assigned to each key such as the medical care selection key 212 of the keyboard 202. An example of processing executed by the CPU 251 in accordance with a computer program when assigning keys will be described.

  FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing a flow of processing executed in key assignment. First, the ECR 101 is shifted to the key assignment mode (step S101). Transition to the key assignment mode is performed, for example, by changing the position of the mode key inserted into the mode lock 208. If the mode is shifted to the key assignment mode, the CPU 251 accepts a function number predetermined for each function (for example, “1111” for the medical care selection key) (step S102). The function and the function number are associated with each other and stored in a file (not shown) in the flash memory 254. The function number is input with the numeric keypad 211. If the function number of the medical care selection key is input, the CPU 251 then accepts pressing of an arbitrary key on the keyboard 202 (step S103). In step S103, an arbitrary key to be assigned as a medical care selection key is pressed. Then, the CPU 251 accepts pressing of the closing key 214 or the final closing key 215 (step S104) and ends the key assignment process. Note that any key other than the medical care selection key 212 can be assigned.

  FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing a flow of processing executed when the medical care selection key 212 is pressed. First, the CPU 251 accepts pressing of the medical care selection key 212 (step S201). If the medical care selection key 212 is pressed (Y in step S201), the process proceeds to the next. At this time, the CPU 251 accesses the RAM 253 and confirms that the patient burden amount is not stored in the transaction information file F, thereby confirming that the patient burden amount has not been calculated (step S202). The patient burden will be described later based on the flowchart shown in FIG. In other words, after the closing is declared by pressing the closing key 214 during one transaction and the patient burden amount is calculated, the pressing of the medical care selection key 212 becomes invalid (N in step S202).

  Next, the CPU 251 determines whether or not declaration information for free medical care is stored in the declaration information storage area 411 (step S203). As a result of the determination, if the declaration information for free medical care is not stored in the declaration information storage area 411 (Y in step S203), the CPU 251 stores the declaration information for free medical care in the declaration information storage area 411 (step S204), A free medical care selection display 221 (see FIG. 8) indicating that free medical care has been selected is displayed on the display unit 203 (step S205), and the process ends.

  FIG. 8 is a schematic diagram showing the display unit 203 in a state where the free medical care selection display 221 is displayed. The free medical care selection display 221 is a character “free medical care selection” displayed in the lower left part of the display unit 203. Thus, the operator of the ECR 101 can recognize that the ECR 101 is in a state where free medical care is selected only by looking at the display unit 203.

  Returning to the flowchart of FIG. On the other hand, as a result of the determination, if declaration information for free medical care is stored in the declaration information storage area 411 (N in step S203), the CPU 251 erases the declaration information for free medical care stored in the declaration information storage area 411. (Step S206), switching from the free medical care selection display 221 displayed on the display unit 203 to display the normal medical care selection display 222 (see FIG. 9) (Step S207).

  FIG. 9 is a schematic diagram showing the display unit 203 in a state where the normal medical care selection display 222 is displayed. The normal medical care selection display 222 is a character “cancel free medical care” displayed in the lower right part of the display unit 203. As a result, the operator of the ECR 101 can recognize that the ECR 101 is in a state where the selection of the free medical care is canceled and the normal medical care is selected simply by looking at the display unit 203.

  In this way, in response to the operation of the keyboard 202 which is the operation unit, the CPU 251 stores the declaration information of the free medical care in the declaration information storage area 411 and also declares the free medical care stored in the declaration information storage area 411. Erase information.

  Next, processing executed by the CPU 251 when calculating the patient burden will be described.

  FIG. 10 is a flowchart showing the flow of processing executed when calculating the patient burden. First, the CPU 251 receives an input of a medical item by pressing the medical item key 216, and acquires a score or the like corresponding to the pressed medical item key 216 from the medical item storage area 421 (step S301). Since the acquisition of the score and the like has been described with reference to FIG. Then, the CPU 251 waits for a declaration of tightening by pressing the tightening key 214 (step S302). That is, step S301 is repeated as many times as necessary until the tightening key 214 is pressed. If a closing declaration is made by pressing the closing key 214 (Y in step S302), the CPU 251 determines whether or not declaration information for free medical care is stored in the declaration information storage area 411 (step S303). .

  As a result of the determination, if the declaration information of the free medical care is stored in the declaration information storage area 411 (Y in step S303), the CPU 251 accesses the free medical care unit price storage area 441 and sets the free medical care unit price (1 point = 20). Yen) is acquired as a point unit price (step S304).

  On the other hand, as a result of the determination, if the declaration information of the free medical care is not stored in the declaration information storage area 411 (N in step S303), the CPU 251 accesses the normal medical care unit price storage area 431 to obtain the normal medical care unit price (1 (Point = 10 yen) is acquired as a point unit price (step S311).

  If the point unit price has been acquired, the CPU 251 next calculates the total score obtained by summing up the points acquired in step S301 and stores it in the transaction information file F (step S305). Then, the CPU 251 calculates a pre-payment amount based on the point unit price acquired in step S304 or step S311 and the total score calculated in step S305, and stores it in the transaction information file F. (Step S306). For the pre-payment amount, for example, when the input medical treatment items and the acquired points are “initial medical check = 270 points” and “injection = 600 points”, the free medical unit price (1 point = 20 yen) 270 points + 600 points) × 20 yen. At this time, it is 17400 yen. The normal medical unit price (1 point = 10 yen) is calculated by a calculation formula of (270 points + 600 points) × 10 yen, and is 8700 yen at this time.

  Next, the CPU 251 acquires a burden ratio from the burden ratio storage area 451 (step S307). The acquisition of the burden ratio has been described with reference to FIG.

  Then, the CPU 251 calculates the patient burden amount based on the pre-payment amount calculated in step S306 and the burden ratio acquired in step S307, and stores it in the transaction information file F. (Step S308). About the patient burden amount, for example, when the calculated pre-burden amount is “17400 yen” and the acquired burden ratio is “100%”, it is calculated by the calculation formula of 17400 yen × 1.0. It is 17400 yen. Also, for example, when the calculated pre-payment amount is “8700 yen” and the acquired share rate is “30%”, it is calculated by the calculation formula of 8700 yen × 0.3, and at this time it is 2610 yen .

  The CPU 251 displays the patient burden on the display unit 203 and the second display unit 204 based on the patient burden. By looking at the patient burden amount displayed on the second display unit 204, the patient can know the amount to be paid.

  The operator of the ECR 101 operates the numeric key 211 to input the amount paid by the patient. When the final tightening key 215 is pressed (Y in step S309), the CPU 251 executes final processing (step S310). In the final processing, the CPU 251 calculates a change amount from the difference between the amount input by operating the numeric keypad 211 and the patient burden amount, and causes the display unit 203 and the second display unit 204 to display the calculated change amount. The CPU 251 stores the input amount and the calculated change amount in the transaction information file F. Further, the drawer 301 is driven and controlled, and the drawer 302 is opened. Further, in the final process, the CPU 251 drives and controls the printer 261 to print and issue print information on receipt paper. Here, the print information is based on information stored in the transaction information file F. If the receipt paper on which the print information is printed is issued from the receipt issuing port 206 as a receipt, the CPU 251 erases the transaction information file F from the work area of the RAM 253 and stores it in the flash memory 254, for example.

  FIG. 11 is a schematic diagram showing the receipt R. Printing information is printed on the receipt R issued from the receipt issuing port 206. As described above, the print information is based on information stored in the transaction information file F. For example, the score acquired in step S301 in the flowchart shown in FIG. 10, the unit price acquired in step S304 or S311, the patient burden calculated in step S308, and the like are printed on the receipt R as print information. By the way, as a result of the revision of the medical compensation system in 2006, the details of the patient burden such as the score determined for each medical treatment item are printed on the receipt issued by the medical institution. According to the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 11, a receipt R on which print information including a score is printed is issued by the printer 261.
