Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a medical office computer for issuing medical treatment statement in a hospital or the like, and more particularly to a computer capable of totalizing sales by medical department or doctor.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In a sick clinic, the sales for each "department" such as internal medicine and surgery are totaled, and the sales for each "doctor" are totaled. Therefore, when inputting medical treatment contents such as medical treatment and medication according to the medical record,
The name of the department and the doctor that the patient went to is declared and set before the actual input is made. This is called environment setting.

For that purpose, a code is assigned to each department, which is stored in a table in a computer,
The operator sets the department by directly inputting the code of the department or by displaying a list of table contents and selecting a desired department from the table. Similarly, for doctors, the codes are similarly assigned to form a table and set according to the procedure described above.

[0004]

In the past, since tables were prepared for each department or doctor, for example, when a list of doctor names was displayed, all registered data were registered regardless of the department in charge or working hours. The doctor's name was displayed. Depending on the hospital, it is not uncommon for one doctor to take turns treating multiple doctors.
Therefore, the operator has to select from a large number of candidates, including unnecessary ones, which is troublesome, and there is a problem that a setting error is likely to occur.

[0005]

According to the present invention, a table for storing the doctors in charge of each clinical department is provided. When the medical department is designated by the designating means, the doctor in charge of the medical department is searched from the table by the searching means. The above problem is solved by searching and designating one of the searched doctors.

[0006]

EXAMPLE FIG. 7 is a block diagram showing the configuration of a medical office computer according to an example. Reference numeral 70 denotes a processing device, which has a control unit 71, a memory 73, and a search unit 72 inside thereof, and a disk device 80, a display device 91 via a display control unit 90, and an input control unit 92 outside. The keyboard 93 is connected via the. A mouse 94 for directly designating coordinates on the screen is also connected to the input control unit 92.

In the disk device 80, a medical doctor table 81 in which the medical department and the date of the medical doctor are registered,
A department code table 82 and a doctor code table 83 in which codes of departments and doctors are registered, an initial data file 84 for storing unique data of each patient, and a patient data file 85 for storing medical care contents are stored. There is.

FIG. 1 shows the contents of the medical doctor table 81. Our hospital has internal medicine, surgery, obstetrics and gynecology, and urology, and ten doctors from A to J take turns in medical treatment. Each doctor has his or her specialty, and the department in charge is different depending on the specialty. Looking at the doctor table 81 in FIG. 1, for example, on Monday, doctors A, B and C are in charge of internal medicine, F, G and H are doctors in surgery, and H and J are doctors in obstetrics and gynecology. And it turns out that G and I doctors are in charge of the urology department.

8A and 8B show examples of the department code table 82 and the doctor code table 83, respectively.
In the department code table 82, codes of “Nai”, “Ga”, “San”, and “Hini” are registered for internal medicine, surgery, obstetrics and gynecology, and urology, respectively.
From doctor to doctor J, "dr01", "dr02", ...
You can see that the code of "dr10" is registered. Everything is processed using this code inside the computer, and if necessary, these tables are referenced to retrieve the names and display them on the screen. Also, in the medical doctor table 81 described above, the names of medical departments and doctors are actually stored using department codes and doctor codes.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. 2 and the screen display examples of FIGS. First, when the operator gives an instruction to start the environment setting from the keyboard 93, the control unit 71 receives the instruction and causes the display device 91 to display the environment setting screen shown in FIG. 3 via the display control unit 90. Here, items that can be input by the operator include a department designation 33 and a doctor designation 34, which start from the contact date 32 and are followed by addition categories. The underlined portion on the screen is the area where the operator actually inputs, and the area with the frame 35 is the current input target area. Hereinafter, this frame is referred to as an input frame 35. Input frame
35 can be moved by the tab key on the keyboard 93. Also, by pointing with the mouse 94, it is possible to bring directly to a desired area. In the underlined part, the contents set and stored in the previous environment setting are initially displayed.

For example, the contact date 32 is an item for designating the date when the medical care contents to be inputted are actually given to the patient, and can be set separately from the system date managed by the clock inside the computer. It is a thing. As shown in the figure, the year number is designated as 4 for Heisei, 3 for Showa, and then the date (FIG. 2, step S201). Normally, the operator processes in synchronization with the system date, so there is no need to change unless the past medical care content is input. The control unit 71 stores the day of the week corresponding to the designated date or the set date in the memory 73 (at step S202). In this example, the day "Thursday" of June 22, 1995 is stored. Also, the date set here is reflected in the date display 31 at the upper right of the screen.

The operator further sets addition classification and the like, and then sets the department and the doctor in this order. Department designation
In 33, although the internal medicine or the surgery is designated by inputting the code, even if the operator does not store the code, a list of clinical departments is displayed and it is possible to select from among them. That is, when the input frame 35 is moved using the tab key, the control unit 71 determines when the input frame 35 reaches the department designation 33, and displays the department list 41 on the right side of the screen as shown in FIG. 4 ( Step S203).

In the department-specific list 41, the names of all the departments are classified by department.
Then, the corresponding “department code” and the reverse cursor 42 for designating one of them are displayed. In the figure, the reverse cursor 42 is displayed in a rectangular frame, but in reality, the inside of the frame is reversely displayed. And the reverse cursor
The 42 can be moved up and down with the cursor keys on the keyboard 93, so the operator can move the cursor to the desired department.
After setting 42, the input key on the keyboard 93 is also pressed to set the medical department (S204). The control unit 71 stores this clinical department in the memory 73 (at step S205). The figure shows an example of setting an obstetrics and gynecology department.

Next, when the operator presses the tab key to move the input frame 35 to the doctor designation 34, the control unit 71 judges this and displays the doctor name list 51 on the right side of the screen as shown in FIG. To do. At the same time, in the department designation 33, the previously set obstetrics and gynecology department is displayed instead of the internal medicine department.

When displaying the doctor name list 51, the control unit 71 searches the doctor in charge table 81 for the doctor by giving the previously stored day of the week and the medical department to the search unit 72. (S206), so that it is displayed as a list (Same)
S208). In the example of FIG. 5, the combination of obstetrics and gynecology and Thursday is set, so from the doctor table 81 in FIG.
Doctor and is searched and displayed.

Therefore, the operator moves the reverse cursor 42 to a desired doctor name by using the cursor keys and sets the doctor name by pressing the input key, as in the case of setting the department (S209). Thus, the setting of the doctor name is completed, and the final setting state shown in FIG. 6 is displayed.

Finally, when the operator depresses the input key to indicate the end of the environment setting, the control unit 71 stores the set value of each item in the memory 73 at a predetermined position as the value of the environment setting (at step S210). . Therefore, the medical care contents to be input thereafter are added with the identifiers of the department and the doctor, and the patient data file 85
Since it is stored in, it is possible to aggregate as data of each department and doctor.

By the way, when only one doctor is searched in step S206, the control unit 71 makes a "Yes" determination in step S207. Therefore, immediately move to step S210 and wait for selection by the operator. No doctor name is decided. In this way, when the doctor name is uniquely determined, the list is not displayed to eliminate redundancy and save the operator's trouble.

Further, although the cursor key is used to move the reverse cursor 42 in the department list 41 and the doctor name list 51, the mouse 94 can of course be used.
In that case, by operating the mouse 94 to move the mouse cursor (not shown) on the screen to a desired one and then inputting the mouse, the reverse cursor 42 is moved there. Just press it. Or reverse cursor 42
If you move the mouse over and enter the mouse again, it will be selected and set.

[0020]

According to the present invention, by designating a medical department and further designating a time or a date, it becomes possible to narrow down the doctors in charge and make them candidates for selection. The time and effort can be greatly reduced. Further, since the doctor can be designated from the narrowed down candidates, selection error can be eliminated.
