Abstract: A Patient Management System (PMS) is a software solution designed and implemented to automate and streamline tasks in healthcare organizations. This project focuses on the design and implementation of a web-based PMS aimed at addressing the problems presented by conventional methods of patient’s management, such as manual, time-consuming record-keeping, inaccuracy of data, and inefficiency and ineffectiveness in patient care. The PMS leverages modern web technologies such as Next.js, Tailwind Cascading Style Sheet (CSS), TypeScript, Hypertext Preprocessor (PHP) and MySQL. It offers a single platform for maintaining patient information, appointment scheduling, patient bills and Electronic Medical Records (EMRs) on a centralized platform. The PMS can therefore guarantee quick access to all essential patient information due to the conversion of traditional paper-based processes to a paperless, streamlined, and automated process. Various components of the system include; a doctor and other healthcare professionals, administration staff, and friendly user interface design for ease of navigation and communication. It also involves security features such as access control and secure communication protocols that will keep sensitive information safe and maintain all compliances regarding healthcare. This project follows the incremental development methodology and assures responsiveness and flexibility based on the feedback provided by the users during system development. The system addresses privacy and security through encryption, role-based access control, and user authentication. Scalability is ensured via a modular and cloud-compatible architecture. Initial evaluations were conducted in a simulated clinic environment, with future plans for real-world deployment. With an improved level of patient engagement and operational efficiency, this web-based PMS is poised to meaningfully contribute toward the digital transformation of healthcare services to provide better outcomes and satisfaction in improving patient engagement and operational efficiency.
