Booking/appointment systems, and also accounting/bookkeeping systems are both well-understood problems and it is easy to find tried-and-tested design patterns for them - thus it may be easier to implement "new" appt and accounting subsystems, using proven designs, as part of a novel clinical system than it is to integrate existing appt and accounting packages into a new clinical system.
