| Summary: | Indonesia is one of the largest archipelagic countries, with a population of 273
million people. The distribution of population between urban and rural areas is still
extensive. Bontocani District is one of the areas in South Sulawesi, which is
geographically mountainous with challenging terrain to reach people. The average
expedition time to reach health facilities in the sub-district is 120 minutes. In
addition, the number of health workers at the Bontocani Health Center is still tiny
compared to the total population ratio. Generational changes led to the domination
of the technology-literate generation. Information and communication technology
application in the health sector has increased in potential and scope since the
COVID-19 pandemic. Teleconsultation is a type of telemedicine which is an option
in making a patient's diagnosis. This study aims to design and implement a website-
based telemedicine application that specifically assists the Bontocani Health
Center in patient management. The health center information system can register
patients, make online examination queues, generate electronic medical records,
and teleconsultation. The results showed that the health center information system
complied with the specifications that had been designed and worked well. The final
testing result of the health center information system show that the application has
no bugs and errors, and has a usability value of 3.25 which defines the health center
information system as quite good. This system has integrated data between actors
that makes no duplication or difference in data. However, the teleconsultation
system still needs improvement because patient and doctor actors still need to
refresh the web page so that messages between actors can be displayed. |
