Description

The present invention relates to a technique for verifying whether or not the placement of pharmacists in shifts is appropriate based on past prescription results in dispensing pharmacies that prescribe prescriptions.

When a patient who has been examined at a medical institution receives a prescription for a drug from a doctor, he / she sends the prescription to a dispensing pharmacy and receives the drug at the dispensing pharmacy.
Dispensing pharmacies deliver prescriptions to patients after receiving prescriptions, but the time to deliver drugs to patients and the time required for dispensing are individual to seasonal factors and medical institutions and dispensing pharmacies. It is affected by factors such as. In other words, the number of prescriptions received and the time required for prescriptions vary depending on the season and the day of the year, due to the types of diseases that are likely to spread in each season, the medical treatment reception hours of medical institutions, and the differences in departments specialized by the medical institutions closest to dispensing pharmacies. , Depends on the time of day

By the way, in places where many pharmacists work, such as a plurality of chained dispensing pharmacies and the pharmacy department of a large hospital, the pharmacist works based on a preset shift.
However, as mentioned above, the quantity of prescriptions received and the time required for prescriptions differ depending on the season, day of the week, and time of day, so if the shift is not properly organized, the patient will have to wait a long time until the prescription is prescribed. It may interfere with the operation of the pharmacy.

In this regard, Patent Document 1 is a pharmacist placement system that creates a work rotation of pharmacists, and the number and prescriptions of prescriptions brought in every month, day, and hour based on the performance database and the medical institution database. In addition to creating a prediction database that predicts the types of drugs, pharmacists by date and time are stored in this prediction database and the pharmacist database that stores the number of pharmacists, working hours, vacation schedules and processing capacity of each pharmacist. Those having a means for calculating the staffing plan of the above have been proposed.

Japanese Patent No. 4820042

According to the system described in Patent Document 1, since the staffing plan of pharmacists is created based on the past achievements, it is possible to contribute to the leveling of the number of prescriptions received and the time required for prescription to a certain extent.
However, when creating a real shift, it is necessary to consider the abilities and circumstances of individual pharmacists and the relationships between pharmacists. That is, when allocating multiple pharmacists, it may be better for inexperienced pharmacists to work with pharmacists who have sufficient experience, and in dispensing pharmacies of chain stores that have multiple stores, pharmacists are in private homes. You may want to work at a dispensing pharmacy near you. In addition, there are cases where it is not preferable to work at the same time due to the human relationships between pharmacists.

In this way, the creation of actual shifts cannot be done without considering the abilities and circumstances of pharmacists, and it is not appropriate to make shifts mechanically. Therefore, the operators of dispensing pharmacies and the like must consider the abilities and circumstances of pharmacists. It is said that it is preferable to make a shift in consideration of the above.
On the other hand, the types and quantities of prescriptions that differ depending on the season, day of the week, and time of day may be grasped to some extent by the operators who make shifts, but it is not accurately grasped as objective data. No, it's just sensuously recognized. However, there are often differences between sensory perception and reality. Also, in extreme cases, there is no way to confirm the prescription results or it takes time and effort, so shifts are made without considering the situation at the dispensing pharmacy site, which hinders the operation of the dispensing pharmacy.

Hereinafter, the shift verification device according to the embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
As shown in FIG. 1, the shift verification device 1 according to the present embodiment is configured to be able to communicate with the receipt computer 2 and the operator terminal 3 via a network NW such as the Internet.
Although only one receipt computer 2 and one operator terminal 3 are drawn in FIG. 1, the shift verification device 1 is actually configured to be able to communicate with a plurality of receipt computers 2 and the operator terminal 3. ing.

The shift verification device 1 is a device that verifies the shift of a pharmacist in a dispensing pharmacy based on past achievements.
The shift verification device 1 is composed of a so-called server computer, and includes hardware resources such as a CPU (Central Processing Unit), RAM (Random Access Memory), ROM (Read Only Memory), and a hard disk drive, and computer programs executed by the CPU. Depending on the software resources, the dispensing pharmacy information storage unit 1A, shift storage unit 1B, performance information storage unit 1C, coefficient information storage unit 1D, registration processing unit 11, calculation processing unit 12, comparison table creation unit 13, identification display setting unit 14, It includes a functional unit including an aggregation processing unit 15 and a communication processing unit 16.

The dispensing pharmacy information storage unit 1A is a storage unit that stores information about a dispensing pharmacy that prescribes a prescription.
In the dispensing pharmacy information storage unit 1A, for example, as shown in FIG. 2, a dispensing pharmacy ID for identifying a dispensing pharmacy, a group ID for identifying a group to which a dispensing pharmacy belongs, a store name of a dispensing pharmacy, a location, etc. Information is stored in association with each other.

Here, the group to which the dispensing pharmacy belongs is assumed to be an affiliated store or the like having the same operating body, and a group in which the placement of pharmacists can be accommodated between dispensing pharmacies. The shifts of dispensing pharmacies belonging to the same group and the comparison table created based on the shifts can be output in a comparable manner.

The shift storage unit 1B is a storage unit that stores information regarding shifts related to the work schedule of the pharmacist.
As shown in FIG. 3, for example, the shift storage unit 1B stores the shift of the pharmacist in the dispensing pharmacy related to the dispensing pharmacy ID in association with the dispensing pharmacy ID.

The shift indicates the scheduled work date and time of the pharmacist, is created by the operator or the like, and is stored in the shift storage unit 1B. By referring to this shift, it is possible to grasp the number of pharmacists scheduled to be assigned on a specific day in the future for each time zone at a predetermined dispensing pharmacy.
The data stored in the shift storage unit in this example omits the registration of personal information that can identify the pharmacist, such as the name of each pharmacist, thereby protecting the personal information. However, as a system, it is also possible to memorize the shift of each pharmacist together with information that can identify the pharmacist such as the name of the pharmacist.

The shift stored in the shift storage unit 1B may be created by the operator on the operator terminal 3 or the like and may be received from the operator terminal 3, or may be separately received by the shift verification device 1. It may be created by the shift creation function provided.

The performance information storage unit 1C is a storage unit that stores the performance of prescriptions received by the dispensing pharmacy at predetermined time zones in the past.
As shown in FIG. 4, for example, the performance information storage unit 1C stores information related to the accepted prescription in association with the dispensing pharmacy ID that identifies the dispensing pharmacy.
The information related to the prescription includes the reception date and time, the reception time zone, and the information related to the contents of the prescription. The content of the prescription includes, for example, information on the content of the prescription and instructions such as whether or not to package the prescription and whether the prescription is a liquid or granule.

The coefficient information storage unit 1D is a storage unit that stores a coefficient for calculating the time required for prescription according to the contents of the prescription.
In the coefficient information storage unit 1D, for example, as shown in FIG. 5, a coefficient for calculating the amount of time required for prescription is stored for each item such as a classification indicating the contents of the prescription, an item, and a remark. .. When the coefficient is specified according to the contents of the prescription, the amount of time corresponding to the specified coefficient is calculated based on a predetermined formula.

To give a specific example, for the contents of a certain prescription, a drug for 42 days or less is packaged, and if the prescribed patient is a new patient, a drug for 42 days or less is packaged. The coefficient of the prescription is the sum of the coefficient determined for and the coefficient determined for the case of a new patient. Then, based on a predetermined calculation formula, the amount of time required for prescribing the prescription is calculated by multiplying a coefficient by a preset unit time.

The registration processing unit 11 executes a process of registering various types of information such as information received from the receipt computer 2 and the operator terminal 3 in each storage unit.
As an example of a specific registration process, when the prescription information is received from the receipt computer 2, the prescription information is registered in the performance information storage unit 1C as a result. Here, the prescription information received from the receipt computer 2 includes a dispensing pharmacy ID that can identify the dispensing pharmacy that received the prescription, the time when the dispensing pharmacy received the prescription from the patient, and information related to the contents of the prescription. ..

Further, another specific example of the registration process is that when the pharmacist's shift is received from the operator terminal 3, it is registered in the shift shift storage unit 1B. Here, the shift received from the operator terminal 3 includes information on the dispensing pharmacy ID for identifying the dispensing pharmacy and the number of pharmacists assigned for each date and time.

The calculation processing unit 12 refers to the coefficient information storage unit 1D and the performance information storage unit 1C, calculates the amount of time required for prescribing the prescription on a specific day in the past for each predetermined time zone, and then calculates it. From the amount of time, the required number of pharmacists is calculated for each predetermined time zone. The required number of pharmacists here is the number of pharmacists required to prescribe a prescription within a predetermined time zone for a prescription received within the predetermined time zone.

In this process, the specific date in the past is the date that is contrasted with the specific future date that verifies whether the shift is appropriate, and corresponds to, for example, the previous year or the previous month of the specific future date. The day is expected. Since it is estimated that the number of patients occurring and the type of prescription required based on seasonal factors are similar between a specific day in the future and the same day of the previous year or the previous month, the comparison is effective.

Regarding the specific processing, the calculation of the amount of time required for prescribing the prescription on the specific day in the past for each time zone is first calculated from the performance information storage unit 1C regarding the contents of the prescription on the specific day in the past. Is extracted for each time zone. Then, by referring to the coefficient information storage unit 1D, determining the coefficient according to the content of the prescription, and multiplying the coefficient by a preset unit time, the amount of time required for prescribing the prescription can be reduced. Calculated for each time zone.

Furthermore, by dividing the amount of time required for prescribing this prescription for each time zone by the time that one pharmacist can work in each time zone, the number of pharmacists required to prescribe the prescription within a predetermined time zone is increased. It is calculated. For example, if the amount of time required to prescribe a prescription is calculated to be 120 minutes for the time zone from 9:00 to 10:00, the required number of pharmacists can be increased by dividing this by 60 minutes of the working time per pharmacist. Calculated as 2 people. In the same example, the amount of time required to prescribe a prescription is calculated to be 90 minutes, and if this is divided by 60 minutes of the working time per pharmacist, the required number of pharmacists is calculated to be 1.5. However, in this case, it may be calculated as an integer value by rounding up or down after the decimal point.

The comparison table creation unit 13 creates a comparison table in which the planned number of pharmacists to be assigned on a specific day in the future when the shift is created and the required number of pharmacists on a specific day in the past are compared for each time zone. ..
In addition, the comparison table preparation unit 13 further refers to the dispensing pharmacy information storage unit 1A to compare dispensing pharmacies belonging to the same group or dispensing pharmacies belonging to the same group that exist in a predetermined area. The table can also be displayed side by side for comparison.

The identification display setting unit 14 is a time zone in which the number of pharmacists scheduled to be assigned on a specific day in the future does not match the required number of pharmacists on a specific day in the past with respect to the comparison table created by the comparison table creation unit 13. Set an identifiable display for.
Further, in the identification display setting unit 14, the number of pharmacists scheduled to be assigned on a specific day in the future exceeds or falls below the required number of pharmacists on a specific day in the past with respect to the comparison table created by the comparison table creation unit 13. It is also possible to set different identifiable displays for each time zone.
Further, the identification display setting unit 14 does not match the planned number of pharmacists to be assigned on a specific day in the future and the required number of pharmacists on a specific day in the past with respect to the comparison table created by the comparison table creation unit 13. It is also possible to set a display that can grasp the shortage or surplus number of pharmacists for the time zone.

In the tabulation processing unit 15, the comparison table creation unit 13 provides a comparison table of a plurality of dispensing pharmacies, such as dispensing pharmacies belonging to the same group and dispensing pharmacies belonging to the same group, which are located in a predetermined area. When displayed side by side in a comparable manner, the shortage or surplus number of pharmacists at the plurality of dispensing pharmacies is totaled for each time zone.
As a result, among affiliated dispensing pharmacies and affiliated pharmacies, how many pharmacists will be in short supply or surplus even if the relocation of pharmacists is performed in the dispensing pharmacies existing in the predetermined area. Can be grasped.

The communication processing unit 16 is a processing unit for executing data transmission / reception with the receipt computer 2.
By the communication processing unit 16, the shift verification device 1 receives the prescription information from the receipt computer 2 and transmits the comparison table to the operator terminal 3 so as to be viewable.

The receipt computer 2 is a computer that creates a receipt, that is, a medical fee statement, but the receipt computer 2 is not limited to a dedicated terminal, and as long as dedicated software is installed, a normal personal computer may be sufficient.
Further, at present, in most cases, the receipt computer 2 issues a prescription, calculates a counter account, issues a receipt, etc., in addition to the function of creating a receipt, and the receipt computer 2 in the present embodiment also issues at least a prescription. Has the function of issuing.

Such a receipt computer 2 is realized by a so-called personal computer in this embodiment, and is a communication process that executes data transmission / reception between an input / output unit 21 such as a display or a keyboard that inputs / outputs data and a shift verification device 1. A functional unit such as a unit 22 is provided.

The operator terminal 3 is a terminal used by a dispensing pharmacy operator or the like who is responsible for the shift of the pharmacist, such as creating a shift of the pharmacist of the dispensing pharmacy. The operator browses the comparison table showing the result of verifying the shift of the pharmacist in the dispensing pharmacy by the operator terminal 3.
The operator terminal 3 is realized by, for example, a so-called personal computer, and has functions such as an input / output unit 31 such as a display and a keyboard that input / output data, and a communication processing unit 32 that executes data transmission / reception with the shift verification device 1. It has a part.

In the present embodiment, the receipt computer 2 and the operator terminal 3 are each configured as separate terminals, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the receipt computer 2 and the operator terminal 3 are realized by the same terminal, depending on the selective execution of the function. , It may function as a receipt computer 2 or an operator terminal 3.

Subsequently, the flow of processing executed by the shift verification device 1 according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to the drawings.
First, FIG. 6 shows a flow of processing in which prescription information is registered in the performance information storage unit 1C as a result as a premise processing in which the shift verification processing is executed.

As shown in FIG. 6, the shift verification device 1 stores prescription information as actual results at each dispensing pharmacy. That is, when the prescription information received from the patient is input to the receipt computer 2, the receipt computer 2 sends the prescription information to the shift verification device 1 together with the dispensing pharmacy ID that identifies the dispensing pharmacy in which the receipt computer 2 is installed. Is transmitted (S101).

In response to this, the shift verification device 1 registers the prescription information in the performance information storage unit 1C as the results of the dispensing pharmacy related to the dispensing pharmacy ID by the registration processing unit 11 (S102).
Registration of prescription information as a result is executed at any time, and as a result, prescription information at each dispensing pharmacy is collected and accumulated in the shift verification device 1.

Next, a process flow for creating a shift comparison table at a dispensing pharmacy based on the accumulated prescription information will be described with reference to FIG. 7.
The shift of the pharmacist at each dispensing pharmacy is stored in advance in the shift storage unit 1B.

First, the shift verification device 1 receives a shift verification process execution request from the operator terminal 3 (S201).
Here, the execution request of the shift verification process is received, for example, from the output screen example shown in FIG. 8 on the operator terminal 3.

In the example shown in FIG. 8, a group designation field for specifying the group to which the dispensing pharmacy to verify the shift belongs, and when the group is specified, the dispensing pharmacies existing in the predetermined area among the dispensing pharmacies belonging to the designated group. Area specification field to specify, dispensing pharmacy specification field to specify a specific dispensing pharmacy, period specification field to specify the period to verify the shift, day specification field to specify the day to verify the shift, verification A unit specification button is provided to specify the unit of the time zone to be used.

In this example, the input by each field or button is arbitrary. For example, when only the group designation field is entered among the group designation field, the area designation field, and the dispensing pharmacy designation field, the designated group is entered. Requests for execution of shift verification processing for all dispensing pharmacies belonging to are accepted. In addition, if only the dispensing pharmacy designation field is entered from the group designation field, area designation field, and dispensing pharmacy designation field, a request to execute shift verification processing for only the designated dispensing pharmacy is accepted. Be done.

In addition, in the shift verification, the past results to be compared are the previous year and the previous month, and may be specified by the operator, or may be set to the previous year or the previous month by default. .. In this example, the case where the actual results of the previous year are compared by default is taken as an example.
Further, the time zone is not limited to 1 hour or 30 minutes in the example of the figure, but can be set to a unit of a desired length.

The shift verification device 1 that has received the shift verification execution request extracts the actual information of the designated dispensing pharmacy with reference to the actual information storage unit 1C (S202).
Here, as the actual information, the information of the previous year corresponding to the designated period is extracted.
In addition, when a group is specified or an area condition is specified, the dispensing pharmacy information storage unit 1A is referred to, a dispensing pharmacy that matches the conditions is specified, and the actual information of the specified dispensing pharmacy is extracted. Will be done.

Based on the extracted performance information, the amount of time required for prescribing the prescription is calculated for each predetermined time zone (S203).
For details of this processing, first, the coefficient information storage unit 1D is referred to, and based on the extracted actual information, the coefficient corresponding to the content of each prescription is determined, and then the coefficient according to the content of the prescription prescribed for each time zone is determined. The coefficients are added up. When the coefficient for each time zone is calculated, the calculated coefficient is multiplied by the unit time, and the amount of time required for prescribing the prescription is calculated for each time zone.

Then, from the calculated amount of time, the number of pharmacists required to prescribe the prescription within the time is calculated for each predetermined time zone (S204).
The details of this process are obtained by dividing the amount of time required for prescribing the prescription for each time zone calculated in S203 by the time that one pharmacist can work. As a result, the number of pharmacists required to prescribe a prescription within a predetermined time zone is calculated.

On the other hand, the shift storage unit 1B is referred to, and the shift of the pharmacist at the designated dispensing pharmacy is extracted (S205).
Then, the number of pharmacists scheduled to be assigned for each time zone, which is grasped from the shift, and the required number of pharmacists for each time zone calculated from the past results are dropped into a predetermined form, and a comparison table comparing the two. Is created (S206).

Further, in the comparison table, predetermined information is identifiablely displayed by the identification display setting unit 14 (S207). Further, when the comparison tables in a plurality of dispensing pharmacies are displayed side by side in a comparable manner, the total number of pharmacists shortage or surplus is totaled for each time zone by the aggregation processing unit 15 (S208).

Here, an example of a comparison table actually created is shown in FIG.
The contrast table shown in FIG. 9 was created to verify the shift in one dispensing pharmacy. In this comparison table, the number of pharmacists scheduled to go to work and the required number of pharmacists derived from the actual results on a specific day in the past are shown in an hourly manner.

Specifically, the time zone display column 101 for displaying the time zone is divided for each hour. For example, the column indicated by "8" indicates the time zone from 8:00 to 9:00.

The number of pharmacists scheduled to go to work is indicated by the quantity of a given colored segment at each time of day. In the example of FIG. 9, one colored segment is displayed in a diagram in each time zone from 9:00 to 17:00, and it is understood that one pharmacist is scheduled to work.

The required number of pharmacists in the past is shown in the required number display column 102 provided for each time zone, and is also indicated by the quantity of segments. In the example of FIG. 9, it is understood that the required number of pharmacists is 0 at 8 o'clock, 1 at 9 o'clock, and 2 at 10 o'clock.

The shortage or surplus number of pharmacists derived from the difference between the planned number of pharmacists to be assigned based on the shift and the required number of pharmacists based on past achievements is a negative number for the shortage number and a positive number for the surplus number. Is displayed as. In the example of FIG. 9, in the time zone from 12:00 to 13:00, the number of pharmacists scheduled to be assigned is one, but the required number is three, and two pharmacists are in short supply, which is "-2". It is displayed. Also, during the time period from 14:00 to 15:00, the number of pharmacists scheduled to be assigned is 1, but the required number is 0, and one pharmacist becomes a surplus, which is displayed as "+1". There is. In addition, in order to intuitively distinguish between the shortage number and the surplus number, different colors and patterns are added to the shortage number or the same number of segments as the surplus number. In the example of FIG. 9, the segment showing the shortage of people is shaded by a diagonal line that goes down to the right, and the segment that shows the number of surplus people is shaded by a diagonal line that goes up to the right.

In addition, another example of the comparison table actually created is shown in FIG.
The comparison table shown in FIG. 10 was created to verify the shift of dispensing pharmacies belonging to the same group. In this example, comparison tables of multiple dispensing pharmacies are displayed side by side for comparison. In each comparison table, as in Fig. 9, the number of pharmacists scheduled to go to work and the past identification are specified for each hourly time zone. The required number of pharmacists derived from the results of the day is shown in a graspable manner.

Specifically, to elaborate the characteristic part of the example of FIG. 10, the number of pharmacists scheduled to be assigned, the number of shortages, and the number of surplus pharmacists at each dispensing pharmacy are displayed in a row for each time zone, respectively. Can be compared.

In addition, the shortage and surplus number of pharmacists at each dispensing pharmacy are totaled, and the total value is displayed in the total value display column 201. The aggregated value displayed in the aggregated value display column 201 is the sum of the shortage and surplus number of pharmacists, and by referring to this, it is easy to determine whether or not the number of pharmacists assigned or the number of pharmacists themselves is appropriate. You can know.

Further, in order to understand the breakdown of the aggregated value, columns for expressing the number of shortages or surplus persons by the number of segments and numerical values are provided on the left and right of the aggregated value display column 201. For example, at around 11:00, it can be seen that the total number of shortages at each dispensing pharmacy is 4, and the total number of surpluses at each dispensing pharmacy is 0. At around 14:00, it can be seen that the total number of shortages at each dispensing pharmacy is two, and the total number of surpluses at each dispensing pharmacy is one.
Also in this example, the segment showing the shortage of people is shaded by a diagonal line that goes down to the right, and the segment that shows the surplus people is shaded by a diagonal line that goes up to the right.

According to the shift verification device according to the present embodiment described above, it is possible to easily verify whether or not the created shift of the pharmacist is appropriate based on past achievements.

In the configuration of the shift storage unit 1B in the above embodiment, the shift is set for each pharmacist belonging to each dispensing pharmacy, but the shift is not limited to this, and the dispensing pharmacy or the like having a plurality of stores in the group is not limited to this. In that case, it is possible that a shift is set for the pharmacist as an employee of the group. That is, there may be a case where a predetermined pharmacist works at dispensing pharmacy A on one day and at dispensing pharmacy B on another day.
