St. Margarita Organizational Structure
Current System Description
After analyzing the information provided to our software company we have realized that St. Margarita Health Clinic current system is outdated in the sense that all data is being recorded manually. Taking into consideration that this firm accommodates over 1000 patients and 10 different insurance policies, one can imagine the problems the office staff goes through daily.
For example if a patient has a change of insurance, the office staff has to go through a cabinet full of folders where the patients file is located. After that it has to go and rewrite the patients file over to a new blank file. This is a process that is not efficient and also time consuming.
