Abstract
Almost all organizations have their own medical benefit program for their employees to ensure a healthy work environment. However, current function of this medical benefit program is to manage the payment of medical treatment when their employees received the treatment from health care provider. The existing system fails to store the medical record of employee and monitor the health of employee. Therefore, there is a need for a new system to fulfill this need. This paper is focusing on developing and designing an Employee Medical History Management and Monitoring System. The aims of this study are to create an online database of employees´ medical history for management of employer, develop platform for information exchange between employer, employee and health care provider using web service. The World Wide Web (WEB) technology has been applied to implement the system. The Hypertext Preprocessor (PHP) language and Hyper Text Markup Language (HTML) were used to design the interface of this system by addressing the friendliness, flexibility and communication.
