Abstract
In recent years, many researches have introduced RFID-based solutions to enhance patient medication safety and avoid human errors during e-Health process. Although such RFID-based procedures are more efficient than traditional eHealth process, patient´s information may be explored in the data transmission period and this will cause inappropriate medication use or medical errors. In this paper, we propose a RFID-based eHealth system which strengthens patient´s privacy as well as enhances the efficiency of out-patient clinic procedure in Taiwan´s hospital environment.
