Abstract

In this research work, the patient administration system of a hospital using manual and IoT methods are compared with authenticated sample data. The software which is developed for this IoT Environment is user-friendly, reduces the time and minimizes the cost. Patient waiting time for hospital services is identified as one of the key measurement of a responsive health care system. So, this study addresses the issue of long patient waiting time in the outpatient department (OPD). Outpatient administration always takes a long waiting time for a treatment that has a short time of consultation by the physician. Queuing theory formulas are used to predict the waiting time of the patient. The main goal of this research is focused on how the IoT method can able to reduce patient waiting time.
