Patient biometrics #1815

Closed clemens-msupply closed 1 year ago

clemens-msupply commented 1 year ago

Feature request:

Identify patient using biometric information such as fingerprint or face recognition.

This would require to associate a patient with a number of identifiers. (This can also be useful if there are more patient ids than we currently support)

Out of scope for now

This is just very out of scope I think, let's close for now?

Yes agree, it recently poped up again though. Having a way to attach some 3rd party biometric information to a patient should relatively easy though. With patient merge, it should also be quite easy to then find and merge duplicates :)
