Details:

Dear Crowd,
Not uncommonly, patient registration is done by non-medical personnel that
should not have any insight into the medical details. GNU Health offers, in
principle 2 approaches to achieve this:
(1) Use the "Party" facility to create patient core data (addresses, etc.)
Disadvantage: There is no way to create ptent IDs, and: The registration staff
has to activate - manually - the is_patient field, and may inadvertently
activate other flags. As the Party facility will be used by others
(accounting, procurement, etc), privilege separation becomes an added problem,
which is not helped by the not entirely simplistic way, how Tryton manages
rules: There is not clear and easy AND function to check for the validity of
two rules at the same time, unless youcreate different groups - awkward.
(2) Alternatively, we can enter patent core data in the "Patients" facility.
What is good about it is that Paitent IDs are automagically created, and that
some, but not all medical details can be hidden away via existing models.
However, some tabs are not linked to any models, namely: Obstetrics &
Gynaecology, Lifestyle, Socioeconomics. Therefore, at present we have to
disable access to each and every compromising field. Once we have models for
those missing  entities in place, disabling access will be as easy as doing it
now for the Surgery tab. One added request for cosmetics: It would be nice, if
disabled tabs would actually disappear, instead of sitting on the screen,
empty, and without any content. This should also hold true for sub-tabs.
Any ideas? Thanks a lot!
Chris
