    Abstract: An apparatus and method is provided for adjusting a Quality of Service (QoS) for a communication device in a communication network. One step includes registering an application from a service provider with the communication device and the communication network. Another step includes receiving, by the communication device, a token from a token provider that permits a modified QoS level for the registered application. Another step includes sending the token by the communication device to the communication network. Another step includes negotiating the QoS level between the service provider and the communication device, dependent at least in part on the reception of the token. Another step includes providing, for the communication device, the modified QoS level permitted by the token for the registered application.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for securely and controllably transferring medical information is provided. An electronic device, like a portable computer, personal digital assistant or intelligent medical monitoring device, is configured to communicate with a healthcare provider's server. The device receives both an authorization code and a medical treatment description from the health care provider. The authorization code permits the user to both view and make a single transfer of the medical treatment description to a medical treatment provider. The authorization code may be as simple as a security PIN, or it may be a digital right that enables software to be accessible to a user within the device. The device is then configured to either print a single copy or electronically upload the medical treatment description to the medical treatment provider. When printed, the medical treatment description may include a unique watermark or scanable barcode to verify authenticity. In one embodiment, a feedback communication may be established between the medical treatment provider and the healthcare provider, thereby providing notification of medical treatment description fulfillment.
