A system may include an integrated circuit (IC) chip comprising a processor and a memory, the memory having computer-executable instructions stored thereon that, when executed by the processor, cause the IC chip to monitor a respective state of each compartment.

Abstract: Tracking patient compliance with treatment protocols is an important aspect of delivering high quality healthcare. A system for tracking compliance with protocols that include the periodic consumption of oral medication includes a mobile computing device and a pill tracking dispenser. The mobile computing device includes an application program configured to record the periodic consumption of oral medication by the patient. The pill tracking dispenser can be connected to the mobile computing device through a wireless network. The pill tracking dispenser is configured to report to the mobile computing device the number of times the oral medication is consumed by the patient.
