The existing system (manual) has been studied and hence a computer based application was provided to replace this manual method. These computer based systems generate the patient report as the patient register in and out of the hospital. This paper generally looks for a more accurate, reliable and efficient method of computer to facilitate patient record’s keeping in General Hospitals to ensure efficient outcome that will lessen time consuming.
