Hereinafter, the prescription system and method using the two-dimensional bar code according to the present invention through the system as described above will be described in detail.

Preparation system and method according to the present invention

That is to look at the delicatessen transaction process shown in Figure 2 in detail,

(A) the patient stores the medical prescription (100) bar code symbol for the delicatessen transaction in the bar code generation server 200 through the hospital / clinics (S100);

(B) the bar code generation server 200 generates a bar code based on the patient's personal information and preparation information and transmits the bar code of the patient to the medical institution certification server 500 (S200);

(c) a patient requesting a prescription transaction through the barcode reader 300 and the built-in delicatessenger device 400 with the barcode 100 prescription (S300);

(d) The barcode reader 300 and the built-in dispensing device 400 receiving the request for the dispensing transaction read the data in the barcode symbol and transmit the reading result to the medical institution accredited authentication server 500 to authenticate the dispensing transaction. Requesting (S400);

(e) transmitting the transaction valid signal or the transaction invalid signal to the bar code reader 300 and the built-in delicatessenger device 400 by the medical institution accredited authentication server 500 requesting the transaction confirmation authentication (S500);

(f) The pharmacy receiving the transaction valid signal is a prescription transaction of the patient's prescription 100 through the barcode reader 300 and the built-in dispensing transaction device 400 is made, and automatically stored in the built-in dispensing transaction device 400 At the same time, the dispensing transaction is terminated and automatically transmitted to the medical institution accredited authentication server 500 (S600).

According to the present invention, the barcode is generated in the conventional process as described above, and the preparation transaction using the barcode generated through the unauthorized barcode generation server, namely, forged barcode, is specified in step (b) of the patient's prescription 100. Means for blocking this when requested, Means for preventing misreading of the medical institution accredited authentication server 500, and reading the bar code through an unauthenticated reader to leak personal information and preparation information of the patient. It is characterized in that it further comprises a means for preventing.

Referring to Figure 3 showing the specific steps for this process,

The present invention is to generate a barcode in the above-described process (c) step of printing on the patient's prescription (100),

(c ') In order to determine whether the bar code is generated by the authenticated bar code generation server 200, the bar code is input to the data of the predetermined content which is previously agreed between the hospital / doctor bar code generation server 200 and the medical institution accredited authentication server 500. Symbolizing a bar code at a specific position within the step S210;

(c ") barcode symbolizing hospital, clinic and pharmacy identification data to prevent generation and misreading of the authenticated barcode (S220);

(c "') In order to prevent the authenticated barcode from grasping the personal information and the preparation information of the patient in another reader, the hospital / clinic barcode generation server 200 and the medical institution certification server 500 randomly generate an encryption key. And symbolizing the encrypted key at a specific location with the medical institution accredited authentication server 500, the transaction pharmacy reader 300, and the embedded dispensing transaction device 400 (S230);

Among the characteristic steps of the present invention

(c ') step (S210) includes such data by inserting specific data of the contents promised in advance between the hospital / original barcode generation server 200 and the medical institution accredited authentication server 500 at a specific position in the barcode. Non-barcode This is a step in which the reader immediately reads a barcode generated through an unauthenticated barcode generator, that is, a fake barcode, to stop the dispense transaction.

Therefore, step (c ') (S210) will be a very useful means to block the transaction by the forged bar code.

In addition, the step (c ") (S220) can solve the compatibility problem with companies that provide a variety of barcode readers generated in all hospitals, clinics, identification of hospitals and clinics through consultation with various companies As a step of inserting the data into the bar code, this will be a useful means to prevent misreading occurring in the hospital, hospital, pharmacy, and medical institution accredited authentication server 500 to be dealt with in advance.

In addition, there may be a difference in the size of the identification data required depending on the hospital and the clinic, in order to effectively symbolize the flexible bottle and the hospital identification data bar code, the present invention is in front of the bar code symbolized by the bottle and clinic identification data The data signifying the start of the clinics identification data is symbolized by the bar code, followed by the data symbolizing the end of the hospital, clinics identification data may further include a step (not shown). This process will be very useful for generating barcode symbols by effectively accommodating various needs of hospitals and clinics.

In addition, the step (c "') (S230) is the personal information (for example, name, resident number, address, telephone number, date of the transaction, etc.) of the fixed patient (basic living recipient, workplace, local subscriber, etc.) And preparation information (drug formulation and dosage, etc.) are generated in the form of a new pattern of two-dimensional barcode symbols for each preparation transaction request.

In order to generate a barcode with a random pattern in real time, in the present invention, a new encryption key is encoded every time a prescription 100 is requested by the hospital clinic barcode generation server 200 by encrypting the patient's personal information and dispensing information by barcode symbolization. In addition, when the barcode is generated, the random encryption key information is placed at a predetermined location where the barcode is predetermined so that only the reader who can know the specific location of the encryption key can read the prescription information and the preparation information of the patient. It will be a very useful means to prevent the leakage of patient's personal information and preparation information.

As described above, although the present invention includes very useful means for safe dispensing transaction, even if the prescription 100 generated by the authenticated bar code generation server 200, the patient duplicates several copies of the prescription 100. Illegal preparations such as prescriptions may occur.

In addition, the present invention introduced a transaction timeout (timeout) security method to prevent this, the process is as follows.

Referring to Fig. 4 showing an example of a transaction time timeout security method, the transaction time timeout security method generates (200) and stores a bar code authenticated by a transaction bottle and a clinic, and stores the patient. Transmitting a signal indicating that the prescription 100 is printed out in real time to the medical institution authorized authentication server 500 (S1000);

If the medical institution official authentication server 500 that has received the signal is a barcode certified by the barcode generation server 200 when the barcode transaction 300 and the embedded transaction transaction authentication request from the built-in delicatessen trading device 400, Reading forged barcode authorization and checking whether a transaction valid expiration time has elapsed (S2000);

If the authenticated bar code and the expiration time have elapsed, the transaction valid signal (S3000), and if the forged bar code and the transaction time have elapsed, the transaction invalidation signal (S4000) is requested. 400).

In addition, the transaction timeout timeout (timeout) security method, the barcode generation server 200 prints the prescription (100) output of the patient and at the same time transmits a synchronization signal that sent the barcode to the medical institution accredited authentication server 500, this synchronization When a certain time elapses from the time when the signal is received, the transaction itself through the barcode is invalidated, so that the prescription 100 of the patient can solve the expiration date and the validity time. Also, after the prescription 100 is issued, the patient may not use the transaction preparation. It can solve the problem caused by.

In the system and method according to the present invention as described above, the bar code is preferably a two-dimensional bar code, not a one-dimensional bar code because it must contain a large amount of data.

The two-dimensional bar code refers to a next-generation labeling technique capable of low space occupancy, high information, and various information processing functions as a two-dimensional braille code.

In other words, two-dimensional (2D) barcode symbols are flattened by arranging data on both axes (X-direction, Y-direction), and the limitation of data representation, which is a problem of existing one-dimensional (1D) barcode symbols, that is, lot number like a shipping package. In order to compensate for the impossibility of expressing a lot of data when the data is accompanied with the movement of the object by attaching or accompanying various contents such as purchase order number, recipient, quantity, and other information with a barcode. It appeared.

Such two-dimensional bar codes are divided into stacked bar codes and matrix codes depending on how the data is organized. The multi-layer barcodes have several characters that can be recognized individually, such as one-dimensional barcodes. Gather together to form a row in the horizontal direction, which contains one or more data characters in a column, at least two columns in one symbol, PDF-417, Code 16K, Code49, Codablock, etc. In addition, since the matrix barcode forms data by arranging square black and white elements of the same width in a square pattern, the symbols have a checkered pattern, and the scanner which reads the symbols determines whether each forward element is black or white. Identifies and uses these black and white elements as data bits to form characters, and matrix codes include QR, Maxicode, Code 1, DateMatrix, Vericode, Array Tag, Dot Code, Softstripe, etc.

In the present invention, any two-dimensional bar code as described above can be used.
