Hello!

After researching a lot what to use to track records of patients in
our small clinic (offering counselling & homeopathy treatments), we
are considering that Roundup & MantisBT might be good choices to
evaluate. (RT looks powerful, but probably too complicated for our
needs. Moreover, it's written in Perl, and considering our
time-constraints and needs, PHP & Python seems to be better
alternatives to learn.)

We've investigated about Roundup a bit, but now would like to know if
Mantis could serve our purpose with some (easy) customization.

Briefly, we want to track general data about each client (name,
contact details etc.) along with the history of all the 'medical
records' (EMR).

Moreover, we have a need to do different queries to find out about
each client, reports about what remedies were prescribed to the
patients etc.

Here I have few questions concerning the design of our customized
tracker looking for some hints how to resolve it...

1) the plan is to register every patient/client as the user of the
tracker and adding more contact details (address, date/place/time of
birth...). (Maybe it would be nice to have some link between family
members later.)

Is it possible to do it in Mantis?

In Roundup we're advised to create separate class for the clients in
order to more easily eliminate problem of clients being informed about
the issues of other clients, which, clearly, should not be possible.

Can we do it in Mantis as well?

2) Each encounter with the patient (be it counselling or homeopathic
treatment) would become a new 'issue' with its own history which can
be
easily browsed/searched. Additional documentation like e.g. images,
scans of medical docs etc. can be attached as Files in the issue.

Moreover, each 'issue' would be assigned to each 'client' so that
there is easy way to track the whole medical record for each patient.


So, what do you think if the Mantis is adequate tool for the above
described task?


Sincerely,
Gour

p.s. Gmane page says that posting is allowed (via Gmane), so it would
be nice if someone can change to reflect the (current) situation.
