Process Condition-Action Diagram Flowcharts. Patient Appointments and Scheduling.

Abstract

The purpose of the Patient Appointments and Scheduling (PAS) System condition-action flowcharts is to present in easily understandable graphic form the major processing involved in an advanced clinic appointments system. The PAS System is intended to provide the appointing and scheduling portion of the health care support systems which are the mission of the Tri-Service Medical Information System (TRIMIS) project. In the face of a wide diversity in clinic appointing operations throughout the military medical departments, the intent of this system is to be relatively comprehensive. Therefore, the TRIMIS PAS Subsystem includes features that may not be implemented at all hospitals or clincis. However, a subset of the system should suffice for any given treatment facility regardless of specialization or work load.
