Method and system for motivating proper prescription drug usage

Abstract:

A system and method includes: a pharmacy server receiving a customer ID code to allow a customer wireless access to his medical data file stored on the server; the server receiving compliance determination data to determine whether the customer is taking prescription medicine according to directions; activating a shell script on the wireless device from the server when the compliance determination data indicates that the customer is taking the medicine properly; and de-activating the shell script on the wireless device when the compliance determination data indicates that the customer is not taking the medicine properly, whereby the shell script provides wireless operation of a software application.
