Hi Abyot,
Its good idea to add attribute Group. Some more requirement or change that
is required in attribute are
 1) It have a compulsory field: which is mandatory to entry this would be
good to identify duplication patient registration
  2) To have option in attribute file just like catergory option so that the
patient can select it and we can avoid free text.

Apart from Attribute some more requirements are:
*Program:*
In your mail you have explained about date of incident. When we implement it
hard to get this message across different people. What will be good is to
have two more field in the program saying date of incident description and
date of enrollment description: As for Mother care program the date of
Incident is LMP date and date of enrolment is when the pregnant women come
to clinic. Where as for child health program the date of incident is date of
birth and date of enrolment is when baby comes to hospital.
*Patient module*
there are list of modification while adding a patient.
Currently in the system we first add the patient primary information and
then fill the attribute. We have to change that. We should not add a patient
unless we are sure that its not a duplicate registration. For doing that we
need to check the patient at two level one at the Identifier which
patient/case specify whether it already in the system and the other place is
the combination of name, age/dob, address/contact number/ or husband name.
once we have the confirmation we should add the patient not before. In case
of child their mother information should be given if mother information is
already there we should check the dob of the child if it is already in the
system. Incase of twins or more we should display a message that this mother
already have child with dob blabla is this a twin.

blood group should be moved from the attribute section to patient as when
we inherit the parent attribute this should not be copied. and it static for
a case.

not all the orgunit will be having patient registration. it depend on
particular orgunit. Yes sevices can be provided at any orgunit but patient
registration should be done in specific orgunit. Thus we should have a
facility like assiging dataset to orgunit even for adding/ modify patient.
*Searching Patient*
We have single search depending on the attribute but we need to improve it
by added nested search. to search within the searched result.
*System generated unique number: *
currently the system will generate identifier as orgunitname plus some
number. This should be change to system generate unique number without any
meaning associated to the unique number. Just a random number.
