Rebuild existing TB Patient Management (TBPM) System in a modern architecture/framework.

Redevelop the Report of a Verified Case of TB (RVCT) process.
Streamline the data extract Message Mapping Guide (MMG) for transmission to the CDC.
The TBPM system is to replace the existing TBPM system built some 15 years ago, as workflows and processes have changed within the TB section, the tool used to track patients with TB hasn't kept up to date due to there not being a designated resource to keep up with these changing protocols. This has led to a system that no longer supports the day to day activities needed to be accomplished managing TB patients within Georgia.
The current system has multiple tabs that split up the data entry into groups of information corresponding to the tabs heading. It is envisaged this way of organizing the various data grouping will stay the same in the rebuilt version.
