The data terminal operates with a smart card (18) carried by each patient and containing their medical history. The pocket-size potable terminal (2) has a reader (17) that accepts the smart card. The terminal is associated with a fixed base station (1) into which the portable terminal plugs. The portable terminal has a computer (11) co-operating with the card reader to process the smart card carrying the patients medical record, using a key pad or touch screen for entry of data. A terminal also serves as a telephone terminal. The reader also processes the patient's bank card, with direct transfer of funds from patient's bank account to practitioner's account via telephone.
