Abstract


Health care related apps are numerous, and more seem to surface each week, as more people use smart phones and tablets, and more pharmacies and drug companies discover their usefulness. Some of the health-oriented apps that already exist are up to their third and fourth versions as bugs are smoothed out and more features are added. As happened with computers, software programs, and communication technology, there will probably be a shakeout period as some less-than-successful apps or whole phone operating systems start to fall by the wayside. Our Proposed System Mainly focused on comprehensive prescription/medication compliance and tracking system designed to help individuals and caretakers and Health care monitoring system is more helpful for patients.
