Abstract
Building hospital applications based on services allow hospitals and other organizations to cooperate and make use of business functions. Hospital information systems that involve extensive information exchange across hospitals and organization boundaries, such as patient profiles, can easily be automated. Service-based applications can be constructed by linking services from various providers using either a standard programming language or a specialized workflow language. This paper reviews the use of computer technology which supports health services in Bangkok, Thailand by developing a survey of health services in hospitals, in which the focus is on the attitudes and competence of medical students and physicians, and the availability of health services equipment; and analyzing and providing guidance via a web service that supports health services. A prototype of a web application is created to simulate situations of the use of computer-based devices for supporting clinical operations, involving 12 medical doctors and 3 patients. Two cases are analysed to demonstrate different situations of the web service. In such situations, stakeholders are requested to query patient information and specify the documents. The experiments have been evaluated by considering straightforward criteria to perform activities with the prototype to determine how accurate the documents are requested and specified, and evaluate how the health service performs efficiently.
Highlights
Many hospitals in Thailand, even in Bangkok, still lack of sophisticated information-based systems due to some difficulties in practical
Legacy systems are old software systems that are used by a hospital
It may not be cost effective to rewrite or replace those systems and many organizations would like to use them cooperating with new systems
Summary
Many hospitals in Thailand, even in Bangkok, still lack of sophisticated information-based systems due to some difficulties in practical. Other software systems can access the information by defining and publishing a web service interface. According to (Asangansi and Aiyetan, 2005), Thailand's medical systems focus on new telemedicine. 286 Journal of Reviews on Global Economics, 2017, Vol 6 technology (Smith et al, 2003; Moulin et al 2003; Coiera, 1995; Asangansi and Aiyetan, 2005; Ozumba, 2002; Bello et al, 2004) has played an important role to leverage the public health in Thailand, in particular, it supports providing medical services. Network technology and telemedicine have been a part of medical treatment in some regions within upcountry
