ABSTRACT
The
aim of this project is to develop a database for indigenes of rivers state that
are above 60 years of age which will in turn help the government to conduct a
free, adequate and sumptuous medical care for them. To replace the current
inefficient manual system which include forecasting and approximation; To
ensure credibility in free medical service for the old age through adequate
database management system in the state; To help the rivers state government
provide a free medical services for the people within the age of 60 and above
through an error free database. The method of data collection for this study
was interview method; this was done between the researcher and the Health
officials. System of conducting indigenes registration was gathered from them
and a well documented procedure for registration was ascertained. A search on
online indigenes registration system was also carried out and a lot of
information concerning the system in question was obtained. Some forms that are
necessary and available were assessed. Also Internet downloads was made to
obtain some text materials.
At the end of this project work, I was able to
design and develop software that can successfully handle an ICT assisted
database for budgeting free medical care for indigenes of rivers state within
the age of sixty years and above. This work also will serve as an aid for
people who wish to research more on this topic. Other benefits are: Provision
of facility for handling text electronically using powerful and sophisticated
word processors to produce elegant and error free documents; In addition
to storing the data, direct data capture was implemented. The systematic
approaches used during each phase of the software development provide a clear
insight that would be of immense help to anyone carrying out research works in
this area.
