System and method for providing healthcare services based on internet protocol television

Abstract

A system and method for providing healthcare services in a ubiquitous environment are disclosed. In order to synthetically manage healthcare related information as well as provide desired healthcare services using an IPTV, an IPTV data center and an IPTV communication network, the system includes at least one health device, a healthcare set-top mounted on the IPTV, and a healthcare server installed at an IPTV data center. The health device collects personal health data, and transfers the collected data based on a Personal Health Device (PHD) standard. The healthcare set-top analyzes the PHD standard personal health data transferred from the at least one health device, converts the analyzed data into Clinical Document Architecture (CDA) standard data, and transfers the converted CDA standard data through an IPTV communication network. The healthcare server synthetically manages the CDA standard data transferred from the healthcare set-top through the IPTV communication network.
