Abstract: In the current era, one of the greatest concerns in healthcare is global aging and prevalence of chronic diseases A smart medi-friend is an all-inclusive healthcare application consisting android devices, cloud server and medi-box(NFC). This system works as an assistance application for healthcare and also as a medicine remainder, eliminating the possibility of taking wrong medicine. One of the five main modules, Admin, will manage doctors’ and patients’ info stored in database through server. Doctors will be able to give prescription, update prescription and timing, view report and history of patient from patient list.
