Abstract
The wireless application protocol (WAP) is now the leading standard for information services and provides a better environment to significantly improve the wireless data market. In this paper, the author proposed and analyzed a novel approach for sharing & distributing information between patients and doctors in order to reduce the inconvenience and enhance quality of information in hospitals by using wireless application protocol (WAP) technology. This paper describes a WAP network for distributing information to ensure that patients and doctors can access information at any time and any location on adhoc basis; they only need a mobile phone. Patients mostly agreed WAP service is possible to utilize some of the Hospitals problems in providing useful information such as timings of doctors, booking an appointment, alerts of Lab reports, notification of medications, announcement, news and about different specialists. Also getting notification about their appointments & surgeries will benefit the doctors. Therefore, Hospital campus can provide and offer information for mobile users as value added services.
