Problem:
- {{DEPARTMENT}} and {{DOCTOR_NAMES}} placeholders not working in discharge templates
- Complex GROUP_CONCAT query with LEFT JOINs causing issues
- Query might return NULL or fail silently when specializations missing
Solution - getDischargeDoctorNames():
- Removed GROUP_CONCAT to avoid SQL aggregation issues
- Split into two separate queries: doctors first, then specializations
- Changed specialization JOIN from LEFT to INNER to avoid NULL values
- Query doctors from doctor_master separately
- For each doctor, query doc_spec + med_spec to get specializations
- Build full name format: 'Dr. Name [Spec1, Spec2]' or 'Title Name [Spec1, Spec2]'
- Return comma-separated list of all doctors
Technical Changes:
- First query: SELECT d.id, d.p_fname, d.p_title FROM doctor_master
- Second query (per doctor): SELECT m.SpecName FROM doc_spec s JOIN med_spec m
- Use INNER JOIN for specializations to only include valid matches
- Handle missing specializations gracefully (show doctor name without brackets)
- Handle missing title (default to 'Dr.')
getDischargeDepartmentName() - Already Working:
- Tries dept_id from ipd_master
- Queries hc_department table first
- Falls back to ipd_department table
- Falls back to direct department field
- Returns empty string if all methods fail
Token Flow:
1. buildDischargeSummaryTokenVars() calls both functions
2. Returns array with 'DEPARTMENT' and 'DOCTOR_NAMES' keys
3. buildDischargeTemplateTokenVars() merges these tokens
4. Creates lowercase, UPPERCASE, and Ucfirst versions of all tokens
5. applyDischargeTemplateTokens() replaces {{TOKEN}} and {TOKEN} in template
Available Token Variants:
- {{DEPARTMENT}}, {{department}}, {{Department}}
- {{DOCTOR_NAMES}}, {{doctor_names}}, {{Doctor_names}}
- {{DOCTOR_NAME}} (singular alias for same value)
Example Output:
- Single doctor: 'Dr. John Smith [Cardiology]'
- Multiple doctors: 'Dr. John Smith [Cardiology], Dr. Jane Doe [Neurology]'
- No specialization: 'Dr. John Smith'
- With title: 'Prof. John Smith [Cardiology]'
Testing:
- Ensure doc_list field in ipd_master has comma-separated doctor IDs
- Falls back to doctor_id, doc_id, or consultant_id if doc_list empty
- Returns empty string if no valid doctor IDs found
