Group Pharmacy Income Report By Bill Type + Admission Type / Discount Scheme
Description
The current income report in our system allows for grouping by either BillTypeAtomic
or a combined Admission Type / Discount Scheme
. However, for more in-depth analysis, especially in pharmacy analytics, it is essential to implement a combined grouping by both Bill Type
and Admission Type / Discount Scheme
. This enhancement will provide a more comprehensive view of the income report, enabling users to gain valuable insights into their pharmacy operations.
Requested Enhancement
To achieve this, we need to add a new report view option: "By Bill Type + Admission Type / Discount Scheme". This new option will allow users to group their income rows by a combined key, consisting of BillTypeAtomic
and either AdmissionType
or DiscountScheme
.
Determining Bill Type and Admission Type / Discount Scheme
For each bill, we need to determine its BillTypeAtomic
and then extract the relevant information for the combined grouping.
- If the bill is an Inpatient, we need to extract the
Admission Type
. If no admission type is available, we should mark it as No Admission Type. - If the bill is an Outpatient, we need to extract the
Payment Scheme
. If no payment scheme is available, we should mark it as No Discount Scheme.
Creating Combined Group Labels
Once we have determined the BillTypeAtomic
and the relevant information for the combined grouping, we can create a combined group label. For example:
"Pharmacy Sale - BHT"
"Pharmacy Prebill - Member"
"Issue to Unit - No Discount Scheme"
Expected Outcome
After implementing this enhancement, the income rows should be grouped by a combined key: BillTypeAtomic + (AdmissionType or DiscountScheme). The table should remain sortable and exportable, and the summary totals should aggregate as usual.
Benefits of the Enhancement
This enhancement will provide several benefits, including:
- Improved analysis: By grouping income rows by a combined key, users will be able to gain a more comprehensive understanding of their pharmacy operations.
- Enhanced decision-making: With more detailed information, users will be able to make more informed decisions about their pharmacy operations.
- Increased efficiency: The new report view option will save users time and effort by providing a more streamlined and efficient way to analyze their income data.
Implementation Plan
To implement this enhancement, we will follow these steps:
- Add new report view option: We will add a new report view option: "By Bill Type + Admission Type / Discount Scheme".
- Determine Bill Type and Admission Type / Discount Scheme: For each bill, we will determine its
BillTypeAtomic
and extract the relevant information for the combined grouping. - Create combined group labels: We will create a combined group label for each bill, using the
BillTypeAtomic
and the relevant information for the combined grouping. - Group income rows: We will group the income rows by the combined key: BillTypeAtomic + (AdmissionType or DiscountScheme).
- Test and validate: We will test and the new report view option to ensure that it is working correctly and providing the expected results.
