Design and implementation of a patient tracking and recall system for Branch Dental Clinic Monterey

Abstract

This thesis analyzes the information system requirements of Branch Dental Clinic, Monterey, and develops a computer application to automate the clinic's patient tracking and recall process. The application replaces an existing mainframe-based, single-file system with a PC-based, relational database management system that provides greater functionality, enables increased productivity, improves data integrity and accuracy, and includes currently lacking security features and administrative functions.
