Abstract

This research paper presents a new 2-way double-type smartcard terminal and a new system design and development of a prescription order communication system (POCS) based on the Internet between the hospital and the pharmacy, on the public-key infrastructure (PKI), and on the concurrently parallel co-operation with both medical professional and patient smart cards in the 2-way double-type terminal under synchronized status, in order to control security and privacy of patients and to manage their drug histories.
