Abstract
Cost effectiveness is becoming the cornerstone in providing quality health care in aging populations. Information technology, when applied with care, can improve the productivity of health care facilities. One area where savings can be made is patient monitoring in situations where hospitalization is not otherwise needed. This paper describes a secure wireless home monitoring system that can be applied to various kinds of health care monitoring tasks
