A cloud computing solution for Hospital Information System

Existing Hospital Information System (HIS) is only shared within separated hospitals or districts, which resulted in high construction costs and waste of resources, especially for small township hospitals and other health care systems which are incapable to set up an independent information platform. We propose a solution to simplify this construction by using network module attached to existing systems that are connected within the hospitals. The proposal is based on the concepts of cloud computing so the information sharing and high-end processing is available in the “cloud”. Furthermore, existing medical equipments can be rebuilt to be more efficient and low-cost as medical terminal units.
