title: A password-based user authentication scheme for the integrated EPR information system.
abstract: With the rapid development of the Internet, digitization and electronic orientation are required in various applications of our daily life. For e-medicine, establishing Electronic patient records (EPRs) for all the patients has become the top issue during the last decade. Simultaneously, constructing an integrated EPR information system of all the patients is beneficial because it can provide medical institutions and the academia with most of the patients' information in details for them to make correct decisions and clinical decisions, to maintain and analyze patients' health. Also beneficial to doctors and scholars, the EPR system can give them record linkage for researches, payment audits, or other services bound to be developed and integrated into medicine. To tackle the illegal access and to prevent the information from theft during transmission over the insecure Internet, we propose a password-based user authentication scheme suitable for information integration.
