SENG205 - Software Engineering Project Trimester 1, 2019

Australian Government has recently decided to create a new medical health record system for all Australian residents. Using this system, any registered and approved healthcare professional in Australia can access your health record when you visit them for consultation (with your permission of course). A portion of this record will be made available to healthcare (insurance) providers so that they can offer better insurance packages that are more helpful to the people.

The Government wants you to design and develop a Unified Health Record (UHR) management system which can be used by the patient as well as their healthcare professionals (Doctors, Hospital staff), and their healthcare providers (insurance company).

Here are some of the requirements* put forward by the Government: 1. The UHR data should be safe and secure. 2. User (patient) has complete control over what data they want to share with their

healthcare professionals, and their healthcare providers. 3. Healthcare data should be maintained until the end of lifetime of the user and has to

be kept up-to-date. All health record data should be deleted 1 month after the users demise.

4. Healthcare providers (insurance provider) should be able to access only the summary report provided at the end of the users last visit to their GP.

5. The software has three interfaces, each for the corresponding entity (user, healthcare professional, healthcare provider) accessing the record.

For the purposes of this assignment, your unit lecturer will act as the Government Liaison.

* These requirements are subject to change depending on changes in political climate.
