MedifyMe is a web application that provides users with a platform to manage their health records and appointments. This project has been built by four students of IIT BHU for Smart India Hackathon 2023 by Geeks for Geeks
Patients often have to visit multiple doctors, clinics, or hospitals for their treatment, which can lead to fragmented and incomplete medical records. This can be a major issue for patients and healthcare providers, especially those with chronic conditions. It can lead to ineffective or even dangerous treatments due to a lack of information about previous diagnoses, medications, and procedures. In cases of emergencies or sudden health issues, it is challenging to provide relevant medical information to healthcare providers in a timely and accurate manner. Moreover, patients may face difficulties in tracking their medication schedules, keeping up with follow-up appointments, and accessing their medical records when needed.
Our Idea, MedifyMe, is a web application that aims to simplify healthcare management for both patients and doctors aims to solve these issues by providing a centralized platform for patients to store and manage their medical records, including doctor's notes, prescriptions, test results, and appointment history utilizing OCR and generative AI to ease the record management process for both patients and the healthcare provider. This allows for a more complete and accurate medical record, which can facilitate better treatment outcomes and reduce the risk of medical errors. The platform helps patients keep track of their medical history, prescriptions, appointments, and test reports. It also provides reminders for medications and tests, allowing patients to give feedback about their treatment experiences. The tool is segmented into various tabs to ease different parts of the healthcare process.
MedifyMe's frontend is built using React, to build user interfaces. The backend is built using Node.js, Express is used as the web application framework, and MongoDB is used as the NoSQL database, used for storing Patients and Doctors data. Google Cloud Storage Buckets are used for storing users' medical prescriptions and bills.
The application uses Google Oauth2 for authentication, React-Redux for state management, React-Toolkit-Query for handling query requests, React-Cookies for storing and accessing cookies, and React-Toastify for displaying toast information. The application also utilizes OCR Space’s API to extract medicine data from prescriptions, tests, and reports uploaded by users.
MedifyMe provides an easy and secure communication channel for patients and doctors to exchange messages and medical information. Patients can ask questions, get advice, and share updates with their doctors in a timely and convenient manner. Payments for various appointments and tests can be made on the platform itself, reducing the hassle.
MedifyMe provides users with a user-friendly and secure platform for managing their health records and appointments. The application allows users to view their medical history, schedule appointments with doctors, and receive personalized recommendations based on their input.
