Patient Identification Software For a US Healthcare Company

How developing a wallet-friendly, BioTech-based patient identification software for healthcare institutions (HI) allowed an HDM company to cut out identification errors and record duplicates and grow its HI-base by 32%.

Home / JavaScript / Page 2

About the project

The idea to develop the product for patient identification came to our customer because of the acute problem of personal identification in the field of healthcare.

The fact is that there occur different problems in the registry during identification of a person: inaccuracies, identification errors, and duplication of registration details. In such cases, employees spend a lot of time looking for the correct patient records.

There are more accurate ways of personal identification. These are biometric technologies, such as fingerprint scanners or vein scanners. However, such methods are poorly distributed because of their high cost.

The product for patient identification solves the problem of identification efficiently and relatively cheaply: with the help of face identification technology. This requires the use of cheap devices, such as smartphones and tablets.

Challenge

The customer tasked our company with the development of this patient identification software. The company required us to develop an application that could be further distributed to healthcare institutions (HI).

The structure of the application should be as follows:

Using the application, the patient registers for an appointment with the doctor.
After registration, a message with a QR code comes to their phone. This code is used to verify the patient’s identity before the appointment.
When the patient comes to the HI, they need to scan the QR code on the device provided by the HI for verification (for example, an info kiosk or tablet).
Then the patient needs to approach the camera and pass face recognition.
After such verification, the device shows the number of the room where the patient’s appointment will take place, or an invitation to go to the registry.

Solution

We suggested developing a web and a mobile application.

We developed a mobile application (on iOS and Android platforms) for patients. It can be installed via a QR code. After installing the application, one has to enter their personal data and upload a photo. This application helps to make an appointment and receives notifications and QR codes for verification at the HI.

We have developed a web-based face recognition app for use in an HI. It is installed on the device the patient passes through during identification. The web application serves to read the QR code and recognize the patient’s face. After verification is completed, the web application shows the patient what room to go to. If the QR code does not work, the application notifies the patient of the need to approach the registry.

Moreover, a part of our work was the development of a UX/UI design.

Solution

The web-based face recognition app allows the user to:

Shoot a photo via the device camera

Enter confirmation information

Read a verification pass QR code from a smartphone

Use the app on a tablet

The mobile app allows the user to:

Enter a set of required personal data, including a series of selfie images

Edit content entered

Keep information about appointments and other events

Save pass QR codes for each event

Integrate with a client’s server

Risk Management Traveling Platform For a US Startup

How building a traveling app with real-time monitoring and analysis of potential threats in any given area enabled a US-founded startup to take the international market by storm, with one hundred thousand active users worldwide downloading the app in the first post-rollout month.

Home / JavaScript / Page 2

Challenge

The company’s current portfolio consists of web client and mobile apps for iOS and Android, while a more complex and functional version of the platform for corporate travel managers is being currently developed.

The main goal of the project was to build a functional backend and a web application, as well as a mobile app with a simple, user-friendly UI. Data exchange speed and security were the key requirements for the app since it would need to quickly update maps and enable users to download threat updates, even in remote areas over slow mobile connections.

Solution

Due to the innovative nature of the product, it was initially assumed that many of its aspects would be designed and formalized in parallel with the development process, which made *instinctools recommend Scrum for flexibility and optimal performance.

The use of the agile approach enabled the company to quickly start developing the skeleton of the future solution and to add extra details and features in subsequent iterations.

The mobile clients were built using Angular 2, Ionic 2, and Typescript. The desktop-based management dashboard for Windows and Mac was based on the cross-platform Electrons.js framework – the same framework that was used for developing the desktop version of Slack. In addition, a special Windows service was developed to enable the product to send push notifications to mobile devices.

The solution with all of its components heavily relies on a RESTful API, which ensures future scalability, reliability, modifiability and portability.

Result

Several months of hard work resulted in a successful release of the first version of the product, an online service based on a unique concept and possessing a number of outstanding characteristics. The service provides recreational and professional travelers with a reliable source of trustworthy information about threat levels at any global location and helps them travel with confidence about their safety. This partnership was a gratifying experience for *instinctools and its customer. Not only has the team delivered a powerful and functional solution, but it has also established a friendly relationship with the customer. Thanks to the team’s valuable input, the solution included multiple new features that were not part of the original specification.

Scalability

Real-time updates about emergencies, crime-related or potentially life-threatening situations that may take place or have taken place at a particular location

Tracking of the movement of people and/or their property

Plotting of the safest routes

Tips about local culture

Direct communication with service members and growth of the network of contacts
