Introduction. The use of digital medicine methods is becoming more relevant due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the current martial law in Ukraine, and the lack of medical equipment in some rural areas.The same applies to the provision of medical care to the chronically ill. Such assistance includes, in addition to medical and diagnostic measures, also social measures, such as care for the sick and disabled, provision of food, etc. These measures are united under the term "medical and social assistance".
The purpose of the paper is the application of digital medicine methods, which include telemedicine technologies, in the course of the construction of the Medical Information System (MIS) model for assistance to the chronically ill with the telemedicine module for implementation of appropriate medical services in hospital home conditions.Results. The types and methods of telemedicine technologies were analyzed, the diagram of business processes of the "Telemedicine" module was designed. The modules of the system were described with the specification of their realization, and the technical realization of the MIS for chronic care was carried out. The technical requirements of the "Electronic prescription" module were described, and the diagrams for the tasks that are frequently used in practice were provided.Conclusions. Based on the results of the analysis of capabilities and experience of using modern telemedicine systems, the architecture of medical information system for the medical and social care of patients was developed which covers the doctor and patient modules, united functionally by defined business processes with the performance of specific functions (online interaction between doctor and patient, issuing an electronic prescription etc.).The use of the proposed MIS which is made using a modern REST API platform for downloading files directly from clients, and an application implemented on the basis of the Waterfal method and the Python programming language, ensures the organization of the interaction of the medical staff with patients, in particular, the implementation of remote consultation and the provision of electronic prescriptions on based on entries in the patient's electronic card.
