Application of Mahalanobis-Taguchi System in Full Blood Count of Methadone Flexi Dispensing Program

Patient under methadone flexi dispensing (MFlex) program are required to do blood tests like full blood count (FBC). A doctor assesses 3 parameters like haemoglobin, platelet count, and fasting blood sugar to ensure the patient has FBC problem. The existing system does not have a stable ecosystem to...
