This research introduces an intelligent system for the quality assurance of Chinese medicine dispensing system using in Taiwan. A quality enhancing pharmacy dispensing system is made through the use of RFID techniques. The system may reduce the possibility of errors caused by human factors and ensure the quality for the Chinese pharmacy dispensing system. The natures of several steps of current Chinese medicine dispensing procedures are irreversible. Hence, double checks for those steps to ensure the quality become impossible. In the innovative-intelligent dispensing system, new processes are established with RFID technique as enabler. Hence, errors caused by human factors are extremely diminished. Prescription and pharmacy dispensing procedures are double checked with fewer burdens on pharmacists. Our efforts include prescription electrolyzed at the front end, light-indicator-aided picking system to help the pharmacist picking the exact medicine during dispensing, RFID embedded cabinet to perform the double check function, electrical weighting scale to make sure the right amount, and data-base to record and trace the scene when errors occur.
