Adding Prescriptions & Verify Medicines to Coordinator Dashboard

Feature Summary

Add Prescriptions and Verify Medicines modules to Coordinator Dashboard without affecting existing Queue functionality.

Problem Statement

Currently, the Coordinator Dashboard only supports Queue Management.

New modules — Prescriptions and Verify Medicines — need to be added to the Coordinator Dashboard.

However, while adding these features:

  • Queue functionality must remain completely unchanged
  • Prescriptions and Verify Medicines must work as independent modules

The challenge is to integrate these new features without:

  • Modifying existing queue behavior
  • Creating dependency between queue and new modules

Proposed Solution

  1. Coordinator Dashboard

  • Extend dashboard to include:

    • Queue Management (unchanged)
    • Prescriptions (new)
    • Verify Medicines (new)

  • Dashboard should act as navigation-only (no business logic)

  1. Queue Management
  • No changes
  • Continues to control patient flow and status updates
  1. Prescriptions Page

  • Independent module

  • Fetch patients where: status === "CONSULTATION_DONE"

  • Allow:

    • View prescription
    • Add/Edit prescription

  • On save:

    • Update prescription data
    • Update status → "PRESCRIPTION_DONE"

  • Must NOT use queue logic

  1. Verify Medicines Page

  • Independent module

  • Fetch patients where: status === "PRESCRIPTION_DONE"

  • Allow:

    • Verify medicines

  • Must NOT use queue logic

Test-Driven Development

Acceptance Criteria (Given-When-Then)

Scenario 1: Coordinator Dashboard Navigation Given user is on Coordinator Dashboard When user clicks "Queue Management" Then existing queue functionality should work unchanged

When user clicks "Prescriptions" Then user should navigate to prescriptions page

When user clicks "Verify Medicines" Then user should navigate to verify medicines page

Scenario 2: Prescription Update Flow Given patient status is "CONSULTATION_DONE" When user opens Prescriptions page Then patient should appear in list

When user updates prescription and clicks save Then prescription should be updated And patient status should become "PRESCRIPTION_DONE"

Scenario 3: Verify Medicines Flow Given patient status is "PRESCRIPTION_DONE" When user opens Verify Medicines page Then patient should appear in list

When user verifies medicines Then verification should be saved successfully

Scenario 4: Empty State Given no patients match required status When user opens page Then empty state message should display

Scenario 5: Validation Error Given user enters invalid prescription data When user submits Then validation error should display And form should not submit

Scenario 6: API Error Given API fails during update When user saves prescription Then error message should display And no status update should occur
