 Preface

This manual was written in order to improve the usability of the healthbravo software because it is very
much essential for the user to know how to utilize the full potential of the software.
The introduction tells you about the software and mentions its various business objects.
“Installation” explains how to setup the software in Linux and Windows (operating systems).
Next comes the most important part of the manual: “The Software” as it explains how to operate
healthbravo.
The business objects are the various modules in the software.
Security is a necessary concern which enables the administrator to create users and add or remove access
rights for a particular user.

1. Front Desk Management

Page 51 of 140
Front Desk Management involves the management of office/administrative tasks by a receptionist who
is an employee taking an office/administrative support position. The work is usually performed in a
waiting area such as a lobby or front office desk of an organization or business.

A receptionist is usually expected to have a high school diploma or its equivalent, but a receptionist may
also possess a vocational certificate/diploma in business and office administration. Although a post
secondary degree is not normally required for this position, some receptionists may hold four-year
university degrees in a variety of majors. Some receptionists may even hold advanced degrees.
The business duties of a receptionist may include answering visitors' inquiries about a company and its
products or services, directing visitors to their destinations, sorting and handing out mail, answering
incoming calls on multi-line telephones or, earlier in the 20th century, a switchboard, setting
appointments, filing, records keeping, keyboarding/data entry and performing a variety of other office
tasks, such as faxing or emailing. Some receptionists may also perform bookkeeping or cashiering duties.
Some, but not all, offices may expect the receptionist to serve coffee or tea to guests, and to keep the
lobby area tidy.

2. Diagnosis Management

Page 78 of 140
Medical diagnosis refers both to the process of attempting to determine the identity of a possible
disease or disorder and to the opinion reached by this process.
The term diagnostic criteria designate the combination of signs, symptoms, and test results that the
clinician uses to attempt to determine the correct diagnosis. The plural of diagnosis is diagnoses, the verb
is to diagnose, and a person who diagnoses is called a diagnostician.

Typically, a person with abnormal symptoms will consult a health care provider such as a physician,
podiatrist, nurse practitioner, physical therapist or physician assistant, who will then obtain a medical
history of the patient's illness and perform a physical examination for signs of disease. The provider will
formulate a hypothesis of likely diagnoses and in many cases will obtain further testing to confirm or
clarify the diagnosis before providing treatment.
Medical tests commonly performed are measuring blood pressure, checking the pulse rate, listening to
the heart with a stethoscope, urine tests, fecal tests, saliva tests, blood tests, medical imaging,
electrocardiogram, hydrogen breath test and occasionally biopsy.

3. Inventory Management

Page 93 of 140
 Inventory is a list for goods and materials, or those goods and materials themselves, held available
in stock by a business.
Inventory management is primarily about specifying the size and placement of stocked goods. Inventory management
is required at different locations within a facility or within multiple locations of a supply network to protect the regular
and planned course of production against the random disturbance of running out of materials or goods. The scope of
inventory management also concerns the fine lines between replenishment lead time, carrying costs of inventory, asset
management, inventory forecasting, inventory valuation, inventory visibility, future inventory price forecasting,
physical inventory, available physical space for inventory, quality management, replenishment, returns and defective
goods and demand forecasting. Balancing these competing requirements leads to optimal inventory levels, which is an
on-going process as the business needs shift and react to the wider environment.

Inventory management involves a retailer seeking to acquire and maintain a proper merchandise assortment while
ordering, shipping, handling, and related costs are kept in check.

Systems and processes that identify inventory requirements, set targets, provide replenishment techniques and report
actual and projected inventory status.

Handles all functions related to the tracking and management of material. This would include the monitoring of
material moved into and out of stockroom locations and the reconciling of the inventory balances. Also may include
selective inventory control, lot tracking, cycle counting support etc.

Management of the inventories, with the primary objective of determining/controlling stock levels within the physical
distribution function to balance the need for product availability against the need for minimizing stock holding and
handling costs.

4. Pharmacy Management

Page 109 of 140

 Pharmacy is the health profession that links the health sciences with the chemical sciences and it is
charged with ensuring the safe and effective use of pharmaceutical drugs.

The scope of pharmacy practice includes more traditional roles such as compounding and dispensing
medications, and it also includes more modern services related to health care, including clinical services,
reviewing medications for safety and efficacy, and providing drug information. Pharmacists, therefore, are the
experts on drug therapy and are the primary health professionals who optimize medication use to provide
patients with positive health outcomes.
An establishment in which pharmacy (in the first sense) is practiced is called a pharmacy, chemist's or (in the
United States) drug store. US drug stores commonly sell not only medicines, but also miscellaneous items
such as candy (sweets), cosmetics, and magazines, as well as light refreshments or groceries.
The word pharmacy is derived from its root word pharma which was a term used since the 15th–17th centuries.
In addition to pharma responsibilities, the pharma offered general medical advice and a range of services that
are now performed solely by other specialist practitioners, such as surgery and midwifery. The pharma (as it
was referred to) often operated through a retail shop which, in addition to ingredients for medicines, sold
tobacco and patent medicines. The pharmas also used many other herbs not listed.
In its investigation of herbal and chemical ingredients, the work of the pharma may be regarded as a precursor
of the modern sciences of chemistry and pharmacology, prior to the formulation of the scientific method.

Page 116 of 140

 Account Management is the process of maximising the return on your investment in a customer by
defining and actioning appropriate plans that will enable you to build on the present, to manage the
future.
An account manager is a person in a business who is responsible for the management of the sales and
relationship with particular customers. They are allocated particular customer accounts, especially the
key accounts which provide the most business.
The Account manager varies depending on the nature of the business. The account manager builds client
relationship by acting as the interface between the customer service teams and sales teams within a
company. By maintaining the company’s existing relationship with a client or group of clients in order
that they will continue using the company for business. Account managers are responsible for working
with clients to identify their needs and work out how the company can best meet those requirements, in
order that the client does not decide to place business elsewhere. Depending on the size of the company,
account managers might manage a single account or they may have a whole portfolio of clients. An
account manager might have responsibility for an account at national level or at global level. Global
account managers and national account managers may work together in a hierarchical or matrix structure.
The trend is to move responsibility for the major key accounts to the global level.

6. Master Data Management

Page 122 of 140

In computing, master data management (MDM) comprises a set of processes and tools that
consistently defines and manages the non-transactional data entities of the hospital.
MDM has the objective of providing processes for collecting, aggregating, matching, consolidating,
quality-assuring, persisting and distributing such data throughout the hospital to ensure consistency and
control in the ongoing maintenance and application use of this information.
The term recalls the concept of a master file from an earlier computing era.
Master data management (MDM) is meant to deliver a near real-time, hub-based and synchronized
master record of information to any seat or point of view in the hospital. Master records are created with
data that is defined, integrated and reconciled from multiple systems (customer relationship management,
financial, supply chain, marketing etc.) and classified by type (e.g. product master, customer master,
location master etc.). MDM is often pursued by data type through programs that address Customer data
integration (CDI) or product information management (PIM), though many observers believe true MDM
requires reconciliation of all data types. Critical to MDM are the notions of data quality and matching,
which technology tools can help to automate.
