The mission of Telemedicine is to provide medical services independent of geographical distances between the involved sites. Through Telemedicine patients can get access to medical expertise that may not be available at the patients’ site. Experience over the last decade has shown that the goals of Telemedicine are not automatically reached by the introduction and use of particular new technologies per se, but rather require the implementation of integral services and specialized information systems.
Software Teleconsult aims to provide logistic and telemedical services between two distant hospitals on the territory of Bulgaria. By definition TIS is an information system necessary for the implementation of telemedicine services.
Our development is a product with three layer architecture – expert’s, operator’s and administrator’s modules. Each of the profiles has specific functions and characteristics, discussed and experimentally introduced to the users.
This paper is focused on presenting the system itself, as well the implementation experience and different module parameters
