### 3. Appointment Arrival Workflow
|
|
|
|
#### **Method: `AppointmentService.mark_arrival()`**
|
|
Location: `appointments/services.py`
|
|
|
|
**Workflow:**
|
|
```python
|
|
1. Validate appointment status (must be CONFIRMED or BOOKED)
|
|
2. Check financial clearance
|
|
├─ If failed → Raise ValueError with message
|
|
└─ If passed → Continue
|
|
3. Check consent verification
|
|
├─ If failed → Raise ValueError with message
|
|
└─ If passed → Continue
|
|
4. Mark appointment as ARRIVED
|
|
5. Set finance_cleared = True
|
|
6. Set consent_verified = True
|
|
7. Record arrival_at timestamp
|
|
8. Notify provider
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Prerequisites Check Method:**
|
|
```python
|
|
AppointmentService.check_arrival_prerequisites(appointment)
|
|
```
|
|
Returns comprehensive status:
|
|
```python
|
|
{
|
|
'can_check_in': bool,
|
|
'financial': {
|
|
'cleared': bool,
|
|
'message': str,
|
|
'outstanding_invoices': List[Invoice]
|
|
},
|
|
'consent': {
|
|
'verified': bool,
|
|
'message': str,
|
|
'missing_consents': List[str]
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 4. Patient Summary Service
|
|
|
|
#### **Class: `PatientService`**
|
|
Location: `core/services.py`
|
|
|
|
**Method: `get_patient_summary(patient)`**
|
|
|
|
Provides comprehensive patient information:
|
|
- Financial status (outstanding balance, invoices)
|
|
- Consent status (active consents count)
|
|
- Appointment status (upcoming appointments)
|
|
|
|
Useful for front desk staff to quickly assess patient status.
|
|
|
|
### 5. Invoice Service
|
|
|
|
#### **Class: `InvoiceService`**
|
|
Location: `finance/services.py`
|
|
|
|
**Method: `create_invoice_from_appointment(appointment)`**
|
|
|
|
Automatically creates invoices from completed appointments:
|
|
- Retrieves service pricing from Service model
|
|
- Calculates VAT (15%)
|
|
- Creates invoice with line items
|
|
- Prevents duplicate invoice creation
|
|

## Technical Details
|
|
|
|
### Financial Clearance Logic
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
# Check outstanding invoices
|
|
outstanding = Invoice.objects.filter(
|
|
patient=patient,
|
|
status__in=['ISSUED', 'PARTIALLY_PAID', 'OVERDUE']
|
|
)
|
|
|
|
# Allow small amounts (< 10 SAR)
|
|
if total_outstanding > Decimal('10.00'):
|
|
return False, "Outstanding invoices must be paid"
|
|
|
|
# Strict check for overdue
|
|
if overdue_invoices.exists():
|
|
return False, "Overdue invoices must be paid"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Consent Verification Logic
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
# General consent (required for all)
|
|
general_consent = Consent.objects.filter(
|
|
patient=patient,
|
|
consent_type='GENERAL_TREATMENT',
|
|
is_active=True,
|
|
signed_at__isnull=False
|
|
).exists()
|
|
|
|
# Service-specific if needed
|
|
if requires_service_specific_consent(service_type):
|
|
service_consent = Consent.objects.filter(
|
|
patient=patient,
|
|
consent_type='SERVICE_SPECIFIC',
|
|
signed_at__isnull=False
|
|
).exists()
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Arrival Enforcement
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
# In AppointmentService.mark_arrival()
|
|
finance_cleared, message = FinancialClearanceService.check_clearance(...)
|
|
if not finance_cleared:
|
|
raise ValueError(f"Financial clearance required: {message}")
|
|
|
|
consent_verified, message = ConsentService.verify_consent_for_service(...)
|
|
if not consent_verified:
|
|
raise ValueError(f"Consent verification required: {message}")
|
|
|
|
# Only if both pass:
|
|
appointment.status = 'ARRIVED'
|
|
appointment.finance_cleared = True
|
|
appointment.consent_verified = True
|
|
```
|
|
|
|

|
|
PREPAYMENT_SERVICES = [
|
|
'SURGERY',
|
|
'PROCEDURE',
|
|
'IMAGING_ADVANCED',
|
|
]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Service-Specific Consent Required:**
|
|
```python

|
SPECIFIC_CONSENT_SERVICES = [
|
|
'SURGERY',
|
|
'PROCEDURE',
|
|
'ANESTHESIA',
|
|
'BLOOD_TRANSFUSION',
|
|
'EXPERIMENTAL_TREATMENT',

|
|
]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Usage Examples
|
|
|
|
### Check Prerequisites Before Check-In
|
|
```python
|
|
from appointments.services import AppointmentService
|
|
|
|
# Get prerequisite status
|
|
status = AppointmentService.check_arrival_prerequisites(appointment)
|
|
|
|
if status['can_check_in']:
|
|
# Proceed with check-in
|
|
AppointmentService.mark_arrival(appointment, arrived_by=user)
|
|
else:
|
|
# Show error messages
|
|
if not status['financial']['cleared']:
|
|
print(status['financial']['message'])
|
|
if not status['consent']['verified']:
|
|
print(status['consent']['message'])
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Process Payment to Clear Finances
|
|
```python
|
|
from finance.services import FinancialClearanceService
|
|
|
|
# Process payment
|
|
payment = FinancialClearanceService.process_payment(
|
|
invoice=invoice,
|
|
amount=Decimal('100.00'),
|
|
payment_method='CASH',
|
|
processed_by=user
|
|
)
|
|
|
|
# Check clearance again
|
|
cleared, message = FinancialClearanceService.check_clearance(patient)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Sign Consent
|
|
```python
|
|
from core.services import ConsentService
|
|
|
|
# Sign consent
|
|
ConsentService.sign_consent(
|
|
consent=consent,
|
|
signed_by_name="John Doe",
|
|
signed_by_relationship="Self",
|
|
signature_method="DRAWN",
|
|
signed_ip=request.META.get('REMOTE_ADDR'),
|
|
signed_user_agent=request.META.get('HTTP_USER_AGENT')
|
|
)
|
|
|
|
# Verify consent
|
|
verified, message = ConsentService.verify_consent_for_service(
|
|
patient,
|
|
service_type
|
|
)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Next Steps (Phase 4)
|
|
|
|
With Phase 3 complete, we can now proceed to:
|
|
|
|
1. **Phase 4: State Machine & Notifications**
|
|
- Enforce strict appointment state transitions
|
|
- Implement cancellation/reschedule notifications
|
|
- Add comprehensive status change alerts
|
|
|
|
2. **Phase 5: Patient Confirmation Workflow**
|
|
- Patient self-service confirmation
|
|
- Confirmation link generation
|
|
- Confirmation tracking
|
|
|
|
## Notes
|
|
|
|
- All clearance checks are performed atomically
|
|
- Error messages are user-friendly and actionable
|
|
- Logging implemented for all operations
|
|
- Services are reusable across the application
|
|
- Transaction management ensures data consistency
|
|
|
|
## Conclusion
|
|
|
|
Phase 3 successfully implements all critical financial and consent enforcement requirements from the PRD. The system now:
|
|
- Blocks check-in without financial clearance
|
|
- Enforces consent verification before treatment
|
|
- Provides clear error messages for missing prerequisites
|
|
- Protects revenue and ensures compliance
|
|
|
|
The implementation provides strong revenue protection while maintaining compliance with healthcare consent requirements.
|
|
