Abstract

OBJECTIVE: Currently hospitals are working hard to make their hospital stand out from the rest in the medical market. The government is trying to hard to resolve the problem in regards to false claims for treatment expenses through issued medical prescriptions. There is a known limit to 1:1 service which needs much improvement. This proposed system will help prevent fake medical prescriptions from being issued.

METHODS: In order to provide distinguished medical services for the next generation, we have designed and implemented a system that applies the Radio Frequency Identification standard, web services and mobile technology.

RESULTS: In the proposed system, the Radio Frequency Identification card is issued to the patient and the hospital system can automatically recognize the patient and a simple SMS message will be sent. Through this method of communication 1:1 customer service can be accomplished. By applying the web services technology, any pharmacy can use the saved medical prescription code contained in the Radio Frequency Identification tag. This in turn resolves the systematic problems with illegal usage.

CONCLUSION: Through this proposed system, we offer the functionality of easily applying the Radio Frequency Identification technology to various medical fields. By using a mobile device, it is possible to collect bio data remotely about a patient.

Key Words: Radio Frequency Identification, Web Service, Mobile Computing, Prescription
