C++ program

Overloaded Hospital

Write a c++ program that computes and displays the charges for a patient’s hospital stay. First, the program should ask if the patient was admitted as an inpatient or an outpatient. If the patient was an inpatient, the following data should be entered:

• The number of days spent in the hospital
• The daily rate
• Hospital medication charges
• Charges for hospital services (lab tests, etc.)

The program should ask for the following data if the patient was an outpatient:

• Charges for hospital services (lab tests, etc.)
• Hospital medication charges

The program should use two overloaded functions to calculate the total charges. One of the functions should accept arguments for the inpatient data, while the other function accepts arguments for outpatient information. Both functions should return the total charges.

Input Validation: Do not accept negative numbers for any data.

Answer 1

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

float total_charge(int n,float daily_rate,float med_charge,float hosp_service) // function to compute total charges
{
return n * daily_rate + med_charge + hosp_service;
}

float total_charge(float med_charge,float hosp_service) // overloading the above function with two arguments
{
return med_charge + hosp_service;
}

int main()
{
char patient_type; // it stores patient type
int n; // number of days spent in hospital
float daily_rate, med_charge, hosp_service;
  
cout << "Patient was admitted as an inpatient or an outpatient ? " << endl;
cout << "Press I for inpatient or O for outpatient : ";
cin >> patient_type;
  
if (patient_type == 'I' || patient_type == 'i') // if patient is inpatient
{
while (1){
cout << "Enter number of days spent in the hospital : ";
cin >> n;
if (n < 0)
cout << "Invalid Input! try again..." << endl; // if input is negative then ask user again to enter value
else // else if input is correct then go out of loop
break;
}
  
while (1){
cout << "Enter daily rate : ";
cin >> daily_rate;
if (daily_rate < 0)
cout << "Invalid Input! try again..." << endl;
else
break;
}
  
while (1){
cout << "Enter hospital medication charges : ";
cin >> med_charge;
if (med_charge < 0)
cout << "Invalid Input! try again..." << endl;
else
break;
}
  
while (1){
cout << "Enter charges for hospital services (lab tests, etc.) : ";
cin >> hosp_service;
if (hosp_service < 0)
cout << "Invalid Input! try again..." << endl;
else
break;
}
  
cout << "Total charges : " << total_charge(n,daily_rate,med_charge,hosp_service); // call function to compute total charge
  
}
  
else if(patient_type == 'O' || patient_type == 'o') // if patient is outpatient
{
while (1){
cout << "Enter charges for hospital services (lab tests, etc.) : ";
cin >> hosp_service;
if (hosp_service < 0)
cout << "Invalid Input! try again..." << endl;
else
break;
}
  
while (1){
cout << "Enter hospital medication charges : ";
cin >> med_charge;
if (med_charge < 0)
cout << "Invalid Input! try again..." << endl;
else
break;
}
  
cout << "Total charges : " << total_charge(med_charge,hosp_service); // call overloaded function to compute total charge
}
  
return 0;
}
