Abstract
Electronic key performance indicator information system (EKPIIS) is a computerized system of
accessing the report of performance indicator in real time of hospital within a single practice.
The content of an EKPIIS is analogous to the paper record, but the electronic format creates
usable data in hospital status studies, improves the quality, reliability and timely report that
create efficient communication among stakeholders and makes easier management of health
plans and strategy. The research project endeavored to design and integrate those functions to
pave the way for the implementation so as to achieve efficient flexible information system that
offers the customer and staff better satisfaction.
Phased development, Rapid Application Development (RAD) methodology of object-oriented
approach was applied to the study of the design system. Interview and document analysis were
used as a main tool to capture the business system requirement along with observation. Unified
Modeling Language (UML) development techniques were applied in the process of requirements
capture, model organization business system analysis and design. Argo UML and Microsoft
Visio 2010 Software were employed in analysis and design models diagramming.
Data captured and guideline and standard documents referred were illustrated using activity
diagram, use case descriptions, data flow diagram, contextual diagram, class diagram, entity
relation diagram, user interface prototyping in the analysis and design models as appropriate to
model analysis and design of the system under study. Evaluation and feedback were taken for
consensus between the users and the designer.
The researcher recommends the implementation of the design in the Yekatit 12 Hospital,
Regional Health Bureau or any concerned body.
