MedExpress

## Inspiration - Visits to the clinic are incredibly inefficient, each time you have to wait in line to talk to a receptionist, and tell them the same info each time, you then have to take a seat and wait till your name is called. After the visit, you are expected to remember all the information the doctor provided. - This is a system that has existed for too long, and we believe this can be improved - We created MedExpress so patients have more transparency regarding their check ins, consultations with doctors, and post visit.

What it does

• MedExpress is a platform which allows patients to check into medical clinics, and get insights regarding their visits.
• When a patient enters a clinic, they can check into the clinic via a QR code. The web app then asks the users questions just like any receptionist would such as reason for visiting the clinic, symptoms,medication etc.
• The web app then tells the patient their current position in a queue and determines an estimated wait time.

How we built it

• A firebase database keeps track of all the clinics, all the patients in the clinics, their medical information, as well as their checkin history
• Flask is used for the server side for all the CRUD operations as well as the queue generation
• Angular is used for the front-end of the patient side app
• React is used for the front-end of the doctor side app

## Challenges we ran into - Adding patients to a queue based on check in times - Recording and transcribing doctor/patient conversation - POST request

Accomplishments that we are proud of
