Abstract

Embodiments of the invention are directed to a system, method, or computer program product for a transaction apparatus for secure data storage and consolidation of medication adherence, health and wellness data for easy implementation and utilization during a transaction. The transaction apparatus may be configured, in various embodiments, for receiving, storing, encrypting, decrypting, encoding, decoding, accessing, transferring, writing, and/or presenting transaction data including, but not limited to, health care data, medication adherence data, wellness data, location data, authentication data, identification data, access data, personal data, and/or other data associated with a user. As such, the transaction apparatus may receive data from a user and store the data. The user may then provide authorization to access the data. The user may then select the data to be copied to an output device associated with the apparatus. The output devices may include, but are not limited to, an E-ink display, mobile devices, and the like.

Claims

1. A system comprising:

a transaction apparatus, the transaction apparatus comprising;

a memory device; and

a processing device operatively coupled to the memory device; and

an output device associated with the transaction apparatus and being operatively coupled to the memory device, the output device being selected from the group consisting of an E-ink display, a micro-USB, a Wi-Fi device and a cloud-based communications device,

wherein the processing device of the transaction apparatus is configured to execute computer-readable program code of the system to;

receive one or more authorization provisions, the one or more authorization provisions comprising biometric scan data of a user;

store the one or more authorization provisions in the memory device;

authenticate the user according to the one or more authorization provisions stored in the memory device;

receive a plurality of transaction data associated with the authenticated user, the plurality of transaction data comprising health and personal data of the authenticated user;

store the plurality of transaction data in the memory device;

configure preferences set by the authenticated user for utilization of the transaction data stored in the memory device by and between the transaction apparatus and the output device;

display, via a display, a representation of the transaction data stored in the transaction apparatus for selection by the authenticated user;

receive a transaction request by the authenticated user; and

communicate at least a portion of the plurality of transaction data associated with the transaction request to the output device based on the preferences set by the authenticated user.

2. The system of claim 1 further comprising a mobile device communicably engaged with the transaction apparatus, the mobile device comprising:

a mobile communication device;

a mobile memory device; and

a mobile processing device operatively coupled to the mobile communication device and the mobile memory device,

wherein the mobile processing device is configured to execute computer-readable instructions stored in the mobile memory device to command communication between the mobile device and the transaction apparatus.

3. The system of claim 2 wherein the mobile device is configured to communicate the transaction data selected by the authenticated user to the transaction apparatus in response to the selection made by the authenticated user from the representation of the transaction data stored in the transaction apparatus on the display.

4. The system of claim 2 wherein the mobile device is configured to receive the biometric scan data from the user, and to communicate the biometric scan data of the user to the transaction apparatus.

5. The system of claim 2 wherein the mobile device is configured to display the transaction data associated with the transaction request by the authenticated user in response to the transaction request by the authenticated user.

6. The system of claim 2 wherein the mobile device has limited access to the transaction data stored in the transaction apparatus.

7. The system of claim 1 wherein the output device is programmed to erase the transaction data communicated to the output device by the transaction apparatus in response to the transaction request by the authenticated user upon completion of the authenticated user utilizing the data for the transaction.

8. The system of claim 1, wherein the transaction apparatus further comprises a biometric processing device.

9. The system of claim 1 wherein the biometric scan data is at least one selected from the group consisting of finger print scan, retinal scan, and facial scan.

10. The system of claim 1 wherein the output device is an E-ink display and the transaction data is displayed as a bar code.

11. A computer program product comprising at least one non-transitory computer-readable medium having computer-readable program code portions embodied therein, the computer-readable program code portions comprising:

an executable portion configured for establishing one or more authorization provisions, the one or more authorization provisions comprising biometric scan data of a user of the computer program product;

an executable portion configured for storing the one or more authorization provisions in a memory device of the computer program product;

an executable portion configured for authenticating the user according to the one or more authorization provisions stored in the memory device;

an executable portion configured for receiving a plurality of transaction data associated with the authenticated user, the plurality of transaction data comprising health and personal data of the authenticated user;

an executable portion configured for storing the plurality of transaction data in the memory device;

an executable portion configured for establishing preferences set by the authenticated user for utilization of the transaction data stored in the memory device by and between the computer program product and an output device;

an executable portion configured for displaying, via a display, a representation of the transaction data stored in the memory device for selection by the authenticated user;

an executable portion configured for receiving a transaction request by the authenticated user; and

an executable portion configured for communicating at least a portion of the plurality of transaction data associated with the transaction request to the output device based on the preferences set by the authenticated user.

12. The computer program product of claim 11 further comprising an executable portion configured for establishing a unique device association between the computer program product and a mobile device.

13. The computer program product of claim 11 further comprising an executable portion configured for encrypting the plurality of transaction data prior to storing the plurality of transaction data in the memory device.

14. The computer program product of claim 12 further comprising an executable portion configured for receiving the biometric scan data of the user from the mobile device for authenticating the user according to the one or more authorization provisions.

15. The computer program product of claim 14 wherein the biometric scan data is at least one selected from the group consisting of finger print scan, retinal scan, and facial scan.

16. The computer program product of claim 11 wherein the output device is an E-ink display and the transaction data is displayed as a bar code.
