Medical records information system based on prototyping model using automatic identifier NFC card

Radio Frequency Identification is a compact wireless technology that is superior and has been developed in the commercial and educational for example in automatic identification in the hospital patient registration. This research aims to improve patient registration services to be more practical during outpatient registration at hospitals. Currently, hospital outpatient registration is still carried out semi-computerized where patients come to the reception desk and then register by filling in a registration form. Next, the reception staff performs data entry from the registration form that has been filled in by the patient. If a lot of patients come, there will be a queue of patients because it takes quite a long time for the registration process. Based on the problems faced, this research carried out the development of a patient data management system using NFC cards which contain patient medical record number data. When a patient visits the hospital, the patient taps the medical record card and inputs the complaint and the doctor they are going to, then the patient gets a queue number for consultation, until the patient consults with a doctor and gets the medicine prescribed by the doctor through the use of the system. Testing the system by reading and writing data on the NFC card on the card reader/writer unit, the test results showed that the maximum reading distance for the NFC card was 7 cm with a reading angle relative to the NFC reader/writer with 300 can read the NFC card.
