This project is about developing Clinic Appointment System (CAS) for Klinik Kesihatan Seberang Jaya. This clinic was registered under government sector. In the healthcare environment, doctor usually will set a date for their patient to make an appointment. The date is used for patient meet the doctor for medical checkup. In today's situation, most of the clinics have provided an appointment card for patient to refer for their next appointment. Klinik Kesihatan Seberang Jaya had developed their non-computerized appointment system which using a lot of paper and time to manage the appointment for many years. As information technology grow, Klinik Kesihatan Seberang Jaya has taken a further step by requesting more advanced system which is using computerized system with short message service. In developing CAS, it was found that RAD is the most suitable methodology to be used because it has an ability to make rapid changes on the system design when user requested. RAD consists of four phases that are Requirements Planning, User Design, Construction, and Implementation. The system/data requirements are derived from a doctor name Dr Naimah Binti Majid, which is one of the doctors from Klinik Kesihatan Seberang Jaya. In short, doctor or staff will key in the appointment information in the system and then it will display the appointments that are two days from the due date. Staff will send the message manually to patient. For a further development, CAS will be developed with automatic message generator that system will automatically send the message two days before the due date.
