Abstract

The existing electronic prescription scheme fails to protect identities to mandates party or to health insurance. To solve this problem, we propose RSA cryptosystem based anonymous electronic prescription which is issued from university and local hospitals by authorized medical professionals. The proposed scheme protects the identity exposure of doctors and privacy of patients. The proposed approach will help national health insurance corporation to increase the transparency of national prescription system.

This research was supported by Basic Science Research Program through the National Research Foundation of Korea(NRF) funded by the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology(2011-0026023).
