【 摘 要 】

This paper presents a medical event notification system implementation using short message service (SMS) over the cellular network. The main objective is the announcement for vaccination campaigns and availability of a particular medical attention at health sites where these services are not regularly provided. In this way, it provides a tool that facilitates healthcare in remote locations without medical assistance infrastructure. Since the main requirement of these systems is to achieve its massive adoption, SMS service is used to guarantee reaching all recipients regardless of their mobile device technology.
