DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Referring to the attached drawing, the present invention may be explained more particularly as below.

Figure 1 is the block diagram illustrating the system of the present invention. As referred herein, the system of the invention includes Web server (10) constituting and administering homepage site for electronic prescription ordering on the Internet,

The electronic prescription ordering site administered by the Web site (10) may be connected with all the pharmacy terminals (12) and all the hospital terminals (13) of whole country, and due to the management of system, this site may endow these pharmacy and hospital terminals with specific identification numbers so as to actually access the electronic prescription ordering site with these numbers. These numbers can be email addresses for executing the role separation of pharmacist and doctor.

The said Web server (10) has pharmacy database (14) storing the geographical information and inventory information of each membership pharmacy through the country, a membership pharmaceutical company group server (18) for delivering medical supplies to the said membership pharmacies and managing the inventory information of each pharmacy as a unit, patient database (16) collecting the medication information of the said pharmacy terminal groups and treatment information of the said hospital terminal group so as to store information of each patient.

Also the said Web servers (10) can be connected with hospital database (15) for storing the information of each membership hospital of the country and statistical database (17) for managing and storing general information such as the decease information and medication information as personal, regional and age group, the said hospital database (15) can also include a health center and clinic as well as hospital.

Besides, the said Web server (10) may include an advertising server (19) for advertising custom advertisements in issuing electronic prescription by a

doctor and confirming the prescription by a pharmacist and this advertising server may include advertisement database (20).

The said group server (18) of membership pharmaceutical company is constructed to be able to advertise its advertisements through the advertising server (19) and also this server can construct medical supply information processing system (21) to use as its own medical supply managing information with each pharmacy sharing the information related to compounding medicine and medication.

Said electronic prescription and medication process based on the system of the invention follows as below.

When doctor treats a visiting patient and then decides the suitable medication, doctor inputs the medication information of the corresponding patient connecting the electronic prescription site through hospital terminal (13). The input process of these medication information includes the followings First, a doctor enters the keywords about a medical component and a kind of medicine decided by the doctor. Then a number of medical supplies related to the input condition will be shown as menu screen on the computer monitor.

A plenty of medicine on the computer monitor would be restricted by the membership pharmaceutical company's medical supplies and there is no information about medicine of the non-membership pharmaceutical company. It can be a method to attract many membership pharmaceutical companies early, by separating between company participating and not participating in construction of electronic prescription system of the invention.

When doctor makes up an electronic prescription and chooses a specific medicine among the plenty of medicines displayed on menu screen, advertisement of the pharmaceutical company which produce the corresponding medicine may be displayed. The commission fee of watching this advertisement is transferred automatically into the doctor's designated account. The forms of medicine advertisements may include line advertisements, flash advertisements, and full-page advertisements using various advertisement techniques.

After the determination of medication by doctor, patient determines his or her customary pharmacy or the nearest one of his or her residence. Then doctor clicks the pharmacy database (14) through Web server (10) and checks the registration of membership of the designated pharmacy, transmits the electronic prescription through the unique number, and notifies the result to the patient.

Unless the patient designates specific pharmacy, with operating the geographical information system served by Web server (10), the doctor searches the nearest membership pharmacy of the patient's, residence transmits the electronic prescription through the identification number of the corresponding pharmacy, and notifies the result to the patient.

Before issuing the electronic prescription, if there is a choice of customary pharmacy for Internet transmitting an electronic prescription from hospital terminal (13) and the input of membership pharmacy identification number which can be a kind of email, Web server (10) searches the pharmaceutical company group server (18) or pharmacy database (14) and checks the inventory status of medicine prescribed to the designated pharmacy. In this process the inventory of medicine for preparing leads to the next stage, transmitting of an electronic

prescription. Otherwise, another pharmacy should be found in order to prepare medicine and medicate by the electronic prescription through the request of. re- choice.

In the process of issuing this electronic prescription, the paying in advance with credit card or cash is requested to the pharmacy with the electronic prescription. This makes it possible to respond promptly to medication need by the electronic prescription of a patient visiting pharmacy.

A doctor's treatment and electronic prescription result is transmitted and stored on the patient database system (16). This can be used as a reference in prescribing and checking the patient's past treatment. The record of treatment and medication of all patients is stored on the hospital database system (15) and is used as a statistical material.

The electronic prescription of a doctor about the visiting patient is transmitted to the pharmacy terminal (12), which is assigned by a patient or the nearest one from patient's place. When the patient visiting to the pharmacy gives his or her information, the pharmacist connects the pharmacy terminal (12) to the Internet site, prepares medicine, and medicates by the patient's electronic prescription.

In the case of settlement in advance in issuing electronic prescription after treatment, the prescription information is immediately transmitted to the designated pharmacy for preparing medicine and medication. The pharmacy prepares the medicine in advance of a patients visiting to medicate.

Before medicating, the pharmacist has the duty of identifying the patient accurately. When the content of the electronic prescription on pharmacy terminal

(12) is considered as improper one, the right to substitutable prescription is given to the pharmacist. In this case, the content of the substitutable prescription must be uploaded on Web server (10).

When preparing medicine and medication at the membership pharmacy, the pre-settlement of commission leads to charge medicine fee to the medical insurance cooperation. Otherwise, the pharmacy gets fee by credit card or cash.

The settlement on compounding medicine and medicating by the role separation of pharmacist and doctor can have management systemization through the cooperative integration of paying system among the credit card cooperation, medical insurance cooperation, doctor's association, and related organization.

The execution of the role separation of pharmacist and doctor by the system of the present invention can get the total information about the public health and disease information, medical information, and medicine-compounding information, etc. To utilize for the government's health policy to people through storing all information about a national health care, membership pharmacy's compounding medicine and medication, and treatment of membership hospital on statistic database (17) on Web server.

The said Web server (10) may be connected to the pharmaceutical company group server (18), the group of sponsoring the system construction.

This makes it possible to get the information of medicine consumption status and inventory status by the unit of each pharmacy. This information is connected with the membership pharmaceutical company's material information processing system (21) to manage the inventory and make medical supplies to pharmacies more suitable.

Figure 2 is the flow chart of explanation of the total implementing process of electronic prescription system according to the invention.

As referred herein, when a patient visits and requests treatment, the doctor treats, identifies the patient, and makes up an electronic order. The electronic prescription is recorded on the patient database through web, updated, transmitted to the pharmacy which is designated or determined by the patient, and the pre-settlement is checked. If the patient guarantees the pre-settlement, the pre-settlement is executed through operation of paying system using direct paying card, pre-paid card, and credit card and the immediate medicine compounding order is transmitted to the pharmacy terminal.

After the process of identifying the patient visiting the pharmacy and checking the information of medication, the medicine compounding and medication are carried out by pre-sefflement, and the money paying is carried out according to the pre-settlement way or post-settlement way. The medication information is recorded on the patient database through Web.

Fig. 3 is the flow of treatment subroutine in process of operating electronic prescription system.

After the hospital terminal's access to the Internet electronic prescription site in order to make an electronic prescription after treatment, with choosing the electronic prescription page and inputting the keyword related to the name a pharmaceutical company or medication information, the list of sponsoring pharmaceutical company participating in electric order system construction and the medicine which the sponsoring company makes reveal. If the medicine recorded on the prescription is the product of non-membership pharmaceutical

company not participating in electronic prescription system construction, electronic prescription system is impossibly is marked, the order content is output.

By the patient or in other ways, the prescription is transmitted to the designated pharmacy.

When the medicine by treatment is the product of membership pharmaceuttcat company participating in electronic prescription system construction, the product appears on the minor of hospital terminal or when every medicine of membership pharmaceutical company participating in electronic prescription construction related to the treatment appears on the monitor screen.

The click of the specific medical product to medicate leads to the input of the product data into the treatment data. At the same time, the advertisement screen of the manufacturer, the company of the medicine is output. In other words, the menu of medicine product choice can also perform the role of the keyword for accessing the medicine advertisement page.

In the pharmaceutical company's position, this advertisement screen output makes the effect of the advertisement increasing owing to the high concentration on the advertisement to the consumer, a doctor.

The paying to the advertisement consumption returns to the doctor who decides the advertised medicine as the treatment medicine.

Especially, as the commercial has a type of customized advertisement of the potential customers, cost of the advertisement will be high. Though the doctor does not recognize profit making process directly while watching a monitor, he or she will have concern about income therefrom.

The. side effect of the input of the prescription are accumulation of the database and time saving of patient's waiting for prescription which gives the doctor sense of obligation as a medical person and income from the advertisement will be used as a compensation fund at the cost of tabor of the doctor.

The types of advertisement include banner located at the bottom of the monitor, pop-up image upon clicking, and flash image. The income of the doctor will be transferred to his or her account automatically in the form of cash or cyber point.

Figure 4 shows the subroutine of the determination of the principal pharmacy in executing electronic prescription system.

After treatment, doctors input the prescription and electronic prescription system determines the favored pharmacy. When the patient has his or her favored pharmacy electronic prescription system inspects the several components : is the pharmacy registered at on electronic prescription system association; does the pharmacy have the prescribed medicines.

If the conditions are fulfilled, the electronic prescription system sends the prescription to the pharmacy (or the email address). Otherwise the electronic prescription system sends the prescription to the nearest pharmacy and after notifying patient about the fact the program will be terminated.

Figure 5 explains the medication subroutine of electronic prescription system- When the patient requests the prescription to the pharmacist, the pharmacist downloads the prescription inputted by the doctor after connecting the

electronic prescription system Web site. After finishing the identification of the patient pharmacist make prescription to the patient. In identifying process resident ID or order number can be used.

During the downloading, commercials will be appeared on the screen as at the case of doctors. The content of substitution prescription of the pharmacist will be transferred to the Web server. Cost of watching advertisement will be automatically transferred to the doctor's account.

In case that, in the confirmation of prescription order, alternative medicine is regarded to be more effective than the prescribed medicine, or the prescribed medicine is regarded not to be suitable, pharmacist can be implement alternative prescription according to his own judgment.

After the completion of alternative prescription, pharmacist may transmit the above situation to the Web server through the Internet site, and finish the task.

Figure 6 is the flow chart illustrating the procedure of preparation and medication in case of the implementation of pre-settlement in the hospital.

Firstly, when the pre-settlement coincides with the issuing of prescription of doctor, the pre-settlement preparation mail may be sent to the terminal of the designated pharmacy. Then, pharmacist gets to open the email and confirm the prescription order, this time the advertisement of pharmaceutical company may be appeared in the same way of the time of issuing prescription by doctor. And the compensation (cash or cyber point) over the consumption of custom advertisement (viewing) may be transferred to the account contracted automatically.

Likewise, in case that, in the confirmation of prescription order, alternative medicine is regarded to be more effective than the prescribed medicine, or the prescribed medicine is regarded not to be suitable, pharmacist can be implement alternative prescription according to his own judgment.

After the completion of alternative prescription, pharmacist may transmit the above situation to the Web server through the Internet site. In pre-settlement, when patient visits after the completion of preparation in advance according to the electronic prescription, pharmacist refers his identity then implements medication, thereafter the task is finished.

All the prescription information on the Internet may be provided patient database system, statistical database system, pharmacy database system, hospital database system, and furthermore group server of pharmaceutical company, which are connected with the Web server, and may be used as statistical data.

Figure 7 is the block diagram illustrating the constituting system of the medical treatment and affair record database based on the Internet As referred herein, the system of the present invention may comprises the server (7-10) constituting and managing the homepage for electronic prescription ordering on the Internet.

The Internet site managed by this server (7-10) may be connected with all the hospital terminal (7-11, 12) and pharmacy terminal (7-13) of whole country, and then whenever needed, the treatment information of registered patient may be obtained form the said server (7-10) and the patient registration and renewal information of the treatment record may be updated.

The said server (7-10) may be connected with the patient database (7-16) storing the first or new medical treatment and affair record of specific patient transmitted from the above all pharmacy terminals (7-13) or hospital terminals (7- 11,12).

And, the said server (7-10) may be connected with medical association server (7-14) and pharmaceutical association server (7-15), and then the registered doctor and pharmacist information provided from these associations may be downloaded, and such downloaded new pharmacist and doctor registration numbers are stored in each pharmacist database (7-18) and doctor database (7-17).

When patient (7-19) visits hospital and requests the medical treatment of doctor (7-20), doctor treats the patient and prescribes according to the result of the treatment.

The medication about the prescription may be implemented in the pharmacy according to the role separation of pharmacist and doctor.

At this time, since doctor has a duty to provide patient with the treatment record, in the request of the patient, doctor has to surely write out and provide with the medical treatment and affair record, and may transmit the patient record written down by doctor to the server (7-10) using hospital terminal (7-11) under the agreement of patient.

Before such transmission of the treatment record by doctor, the authentication over patient enables doctor to play a role of a registration authority.

The authentication of a patient is very important process to maintain genuineness and reliability of patient database.

Server (7-10) may be connected with medical association server (7-14) and pharmaceutical association server (7-15), and downloads the registered doctor and pharmacist information from each association and stores in each pharmacist database (7-18) and doctor database (7-17) of the server, and whenever each of doctor (7-20,21) of hospital terminal (7-11, 12) or pharmacist (7- 22) of pharmacy terminal (7-13) requests authentication as the registration authority, the server refers and authenticate.

Therefore, when the corresponding treatment doctor requests the authentication of registration authority in order to register the treatment record about the specific patient from hospital terminal (7-11), this authentication is referred and approved, and then doctor transmits the said record to server (7-10).

When the treatment record is inputted from hospital terminal (7-11), server (7-10) stores the record in patient database (7-16).

Patient database (7-16) is stored and managed individually, and after the first patient database is created, all the next treatment record or medication record is accumulatively recorded to the account of the membership patient.

Therefore, even though patient changes into other hospital or family doctor, new family doctor may read the past treatment record recorded to database of the patient using the corresponding hospital terminal (7-12) so that may avoid repeated treatment and examination.

Likewise, at this time doctor transmits the result of patient so that the disease history of patient may be administered continuously and systematically.

And, it is also allowed to refer to the past disease history or treatment result etc. of the visited patient using pharmacy terminal (7-13) in pharmacy, at

this time the medication information is written out and uploaded by pharmacist of as registration authority.

Since the upload of the medication information by pharmacist and the treatment record by doctor burdens with duty or provides with certain economic value, early accomplishment of constituting aim of database of each patient may be promoted by compensation. And it may be used as statistic data of the public health.

Figure 8 is the flow chart illustrating the procedure of making patient database. As referred herein, when patient selects the family doctor and makes reservation through Internet etc., then visits hospital, the medical treatment is executed by the corresponding reserved family doctor. The doctor has to write out and provide the medical treatment and affair record to patient, but it is difficuft for all patients to administer the record systematically. Therefore, the family doctor refers to whether the patient whom the doctor treats is registered to patient database, so that if the patient is registered, the doctor transmits the treatment record to patient database through the server, and if the patient is unregistered, doctor confirms whether the patient approves the registration to the patient database.

If the patient refuses to register to patient database, doctor writes out and issues the medical treatment and affair record and then his task is finished.

On the contrary, if the patient admits the registration to patient database, doctor connects hospital terminal to server through Internet and input the doctor's ID so that he obtains the authentication of as the registration authority, and then.

transmits personal data and treatment record of the corresponding patient and creates and registers personal database to the membership patient database.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION The invention enables to return profit directly or indirectly to doctor, pharmacist and patient by consuming the advertisement naturally when doctor prescribes and pharmacist confirms the prescription according to the execution of the role separation of pharmacist and doctor, and also enables the advertiser to send the custom advertisement to the target consumer, so that satisfies both sides.

In the execution of role separation of pharmacist and doctor, since the prescription order issued by doctor may be rapidly and accurately transmitted to pharmacist of pharmacy and use as foundation of statistical data of the national health by making all medical information related to the treatment and medication into database, the present invention is required to the active participation of hospital, pharmacy, patient and concerned industry, that is pharmaceutical company. The rational supply of funds is required to the constitution of the electronic prescription ordering system based on the Internet due to the benefit principle. Also, the invention has an effect on the execution of the national medical action in hospital and pharmacy by properly reconciling concerns between pharmacist, doctor and patient. In the burden of cost, since the part. of prescription transmission may be eventually regarded as an effective sales network of medicine, it is desirable to lead and participate the cost burden of pharmaceutical company by use of pharmaceutical advertisement.

INDUSTRIAL AVAILABILITY In the pharmacy, the present invention may be preferred positively because of the inconvenience of re-input of the paper prescription for insurance claim and thus the burden of personnel expense. The electronic purchasing method of medicine based on the prescription information can be applied to the corresponding industry. In case of patient, since patient can learn reparable pharmacy in advance, it is expected to the reduction of arrival time to the pharmacy and the reduction of waiting time after receipt of the prescrfption, so that the invention may be utilized positively and broadly
