Abstract
Digital tools are an essential part of the development and progress of society, even during the health emergency that the world is going through, allowing people to communicate remotely and perform various activities. The present research work has been developed after identifying the needs and deficiencies some medical centers face due to the lack of knowledge of the advantages offered by information systems. The main objective is to develop a web-based system to improve the interaction between the physician and his patients, providing adequate service by assigning and canceling medical appointments online. In addition, the medical staff will have real-time access to medical records. For the development of this web system, the OSCRUM methodology was used to guarantee effectiveness and security during the implementation and continuous improvement of the web system. Likewise, the SMS methodology was applied to the selection of relevant literature. In the performance of the "Medi-Health" web system, a system designed and developed to improve the current conditions of medical centers that do not have an online medical appointment control system was obtained. Finally, in the results obtained through the evaluation of users for this research work, it is concluded that web systems improve the management of medical appointment scheduling and the registration of medical history, significantly optimizing time and improving patient care.
