To create an adapted and effective data entry system, we need to answer to a number of questions. Who is the system user? What tasks can be completed with the system? Where is the system used? What are the tools that can help the user during data entry? The answers to these questions represent the data entry context and the needs of the user. This paper concerns data entry assistance for data coding in the healthcare domain. We propose a contextual data entry system dedicated to healthcare professionals. The name of our system is Hermes. The aim of Hermes is to manage a set of data entry tools. A data entry tool is selected according to the context of the user’s data entry. Finally, we test the performance of our system by simulating scenarios. The results are presented and discussed in this paper. Keywords—Context, Data entry, Medical Informatics, Human-Computer Interaction.
