Practice systems hub
Hypothetical. Not a client, not a result.
// The problem
A veterinary group copies payments from the terminal into the practice system, invoices into accounting and lab orders by hand, at every clinic, every day.
// What we would build
An integration hub between the practice management system, payments, the lab and accounting, so a payment, an invoice or a lab result is entered once and reaches the other systems, with a log of every message.
// What is in it
- Payments matched to invoices in the practice system
- Invoices and sales posted to accounting
- Lab orders sent and results returned to the right record
- A log of every message, with alerts
- Documented, so the next system is easy to add
// Stack
- Node.js
- PostgreSQL
- OpenAPI
- Practice management and lab interfaces
- AWS
