Architecture of automated communication and data processing system for forensic medicine

The paper introduces a blueprint for system that automates and facilitates the process of medico-legal exams and inquests. The system responsibilities are to mediate the communication between institutions and forensic doctors and to organize, store and archive tasks and data based on the legal regulations. Currently in Bulgaria and the Balkans there is no fully computerized solution which is the main reason for this paper. The system would allow examiners to focus on the actual medical work and not on the paper work. Key advantages of the system are the automation in the process, the communication with external systems and participants, the dynamic modelling of the processes and the security model that would keep patient privacy and data integrity.
