Healthcare Data Management - Prescription Refill Reminder

 Notes:

  • What problem does it solve?: It automatically sends prescription refill reminders to patients, improving medication adherence.

  • How can businesses or users benefit from customizing the code?: Healthcare providers can tailor this system for different medications and patient needs.

  • How can businesses or users adopt the solution further, if needed?: This can be extended to integrate with SMS or email systems for real-time reminders.

Python Code:


import datetime


class PrescriptionReminder:

    def __init__(self, medication_name, days_until_refill):

        self.medication_name = medication_name

        self.days_until_refill = days_until_refill

        self.last_refill_date = datetime.datetime.now()


    def next_refill_date(self):

        return self.last_refill_date + datetime.timedelta(days=self.days_until_refill)


    def remind_patient(self):

        next_refill = self.next_refill_date()

        print(f"Reminder: Refill {self.medication_name} by {next_refill.strftime('%Y-%m-%d')}")


# Example Usage

reminder = PrescriptionReminder("Amlodipine", 30)

reminder.remind_patient()
