Full-Stack Hospital Management System

Abstract: This paper presents MediCare Pro, a comprehensive full-stack Hospital Management System (HMS) developed using FastAPI, SQLAlchemy, and modern web technologies. The system addresses the growing need for digitised, integrated healthcare administration by providing a unified platform covering patient registration and management, doctor scheduling, appointment booking, billing with UPI payment integration, medical records, inventory control, staff management, and real-time analytics. A distinguishing feature of MediCare Pro is its incorporation of biometric face recognition login using face-api.js, eliminating the need for manual credential entry. The backend exposes 30+ RESTful API endpoints, while the frontend is a Single-Page Application (SPA) delivering a responsive, role-aware dashboard. Evaluation demonstrates that the system achieves complete CRUD coverage across eight data entities, real- time KPI monitoring through 14 computed statistics, and seamless UPI-based payment flows. The paper details the system architecture, data model, module design, security considerations, and future enhancement roadmap.
