doctors office database
a database program that keeps track of patients, and their records. It would
have all the required fields with appointments, and all the necessary requirements for that record that a doctors office would require ie; insurance, referrals, address, telephone number, account number, social security number, etc. ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.

doctors office database
Pat,
I can create this database for you for a very reasonable fee. Not too long ago I created a similar database for a large medical facility in a large city. It has a very nice appointment scheduling module that I would incorporate into your database. Contact me at my email address below after the beginning of the year if you would like my help. -- PC Datasheet Your Resource For Help With Access, Excel And Word Applications www.pcdatasheet.com If you can't get the help you need in the newsgroup, I can help you for a very reasonable fee. Over 1000 Access users have come to me for help. Need a month calendar or 7 day calendar? Need appointment scheduling? Need room reservations scheduling? Need employee work scheduling? Contact me!

doctors office database
Good suggestion, although it might be difficult to make a single,
one-size-fits-all database template, as each office's requirements may differ in many respects. The newsgroups have many posts about exactly these types of databases that people are building for their offices' use. But if you can post some questions about what you're seeking that goes beyond the templates that ship with ACCESS, I'm sure we can provide *free* sugggestions to you. -- Ken Snell MS ACCESS MVP "Pat" wrote in message ... a database program that keeps track of patients, and their records.

keep in mind the HIPAA privacy and security requirements, Pat. an Access
database cannot be completely secured, so you have to consider whether it will satisfy HIPAA regulations, and the potential ramifications to the doctor, his practice, and his patients, if it does not. hth "Pat" wrote in message ... a database program that keeps track of patients, and their records.

Would HIPAA regulations dictate that NO electronic file can contain patient data unless there is air-tight security actually built into the file itself or only that appropriate steps are taken to prevent unauthorized access to the file? I mean most medical records are still in plain old fashioned paper folders. Are medical organizations required to use a secret code when writing on medical charts or are they only required to take steps so that only authorized people get their hands on them? I assume it is the latter. I fail to see why the bar should be any higher for electronic versions of that same data. -- I don't check the Email account attached to this message. Send instead to...

HIPPA [i.e., HIPAA] Standards
Thanks for the link.
From a bystander with a casual interest in HIPAA issues it seems from this reading "reasonable" and sufficient safeguards fit the bill, as it were, and Rick's take on the matter is spot on, especially as regards authorization and network security. mikeinohio wrote: got to this link and download the PDF http://www.cms.hhs.gov/EducationMate...Safeguards.pdf "Rick Brandt" wrote: tina wrote: keep in mind the HIPAA privacy and security requirements, Pat. an Access database cannot be completely secured, so you have to consider whether it will satisfy HIPAA regulations, and the potential ramifications to the doctor, his practice, and his patients, if it does not.

I work for the DoD supporting Military medical software and am required to
take multiple certification courses relating to PHI (Personal Health Information) and PII (Personally Identifiable Information). The rules are fairly stringent, but necessary. Anyone working in a medical facility who has access to medical information (PHI or PII) is required to be HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) certified. Requiring everyone who works in such a facility to be HIPAA Certified limits the problem of security, as far as employees, etc. Other that that, normal computer security measures should be implemented (secure passwords, etc.). Therefore, building a database would be adequately secure if these measures are followed. That being said, I also am looking for a template (at least for starting ideas) for a doctor's office. -- Johnson B.
