Abstract

The paper presents advancements in healthcare data capture through the application of image-based extraction techniques, which include sophisticated image processing techniques such as resizing and adaptive thresholding, for prescription information. With the increasing digitization of medical records, automating the extraction of relevant data from prescription documents has become crucial. This research explores the utilization of image processing and optical character recognition (OCR) methodologies to extract prescription information accurately. By converting prescription documents into image format and employing OCR algorithms, the text content is extracted and parsed for critical details such as medication names, dosages, and patient instructions. Notably, our methodology excels in overcoming limitations associated with handwritten documents, achieving an impressive accuracy rate of 98%. This image-based approach offers a streamlined and efficient method for capturing prescription data, reducing manual data entry efforts, and minimizing potential errors. Experimental evaluations demonstrate the effectiveness and accuracy of the proposed approach, highlighting its potential to enhance healthcare data capture and improve patient care.
