What are my options for customizing patient registration? What are the tradeoffs? Can I still make use of modules? I particularly need the ID Gen module and Address Hierarchy.
Some choices I know about: * tweak some of the settings in global properties to make fields appear or disappear in the regular create patient * HTML Forms has a tag that will create a patient. The page will be good-looking and easy to modify. Can I still make use of, say, the ID Gen module? * I could make a patient xform. The page will be more compatible with mobile, and I can make changes with the xform designer. How about those modules? * I could write a registration module from scratch. ( Is MDR-TB an example of that?) How vulnerable is it to breaking when I upgrade core? Is it a lot of extra work for not much benefit? Can I make a couple portlets and insert them on the reg page? Things I'd like to accomplish: * swap the order of given name/ family name from the Find page to registration -- family name comes first here, and the form populates with the second name * make it easier to create a caretaker on the reg page * (ideal) add a dropdown with a couple of encounter forms and on Save, immediately go to the add encounter form. Alternately, ask for a few important values, and create an encounter behind the scenes with those values filled in. When 1.9 comes out, automatically create a visit on save. Will that give you enough to discuss?
