CTRL + F

Inspiration

I asked my girlfriend "what the most annoying thing about the medical system". After a good conversation I narrowed down to the issue of information sharing. The Project name is the shortcut key for forwarding email. Symbolizing the sharing information in a coinvent way.

What it does

I built a simple API that deals with queries for both physicians and patients

How we built it

First, I came up with the sample dataset of having individuals in the system, which would be done through an online form. Second, security with a login page to determine the user and give correct permissions Third, creating the API to hit and different methods to retrieve information in an easy way.

Challenges we ran into

I couldn't create a RDS so I had to settle on a simpler database structure for the demo.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

That it works. I am prouder that the solution is eliminating the need for a redundant process that can be automated.

What we learned

I learned flask and how to build an API with a very limited interaction.

What's next for CTRL + F

First and foremost, Front end. Next would be implementing the API into the delivery pipeline and setting up producers to give information. Moving from a NoSQL database to SQL database as more sources are added to reduce complexity. Finally, once we get that setup, we release to staff that can use it and then maybe open up to users that want to view their own information. To reach optimal state would be CI\CD of the application to update the source database when new updates are published.
