Abstract: The method is for monitoring biological data in a human body. A sensor (102) senses biological data (103) from a human body (105) and sends the biological data (103) to a control unit (104) that sends the biological data (103) to a communicator (106). The communicator compares the biological data (103) to triggering values (111). The communicator only transmits the biological data when the triggering values have been exceeded by the biological data. The communicator sends an alert signal (114) including the biological data (103) in a dedicated bandwidth (116) to a server (108). A decision rule engine (112) analyzes the biological data and decides which message to send and to which recipient based on the biological data. A medical institution (150) pays a fee (148) to a service unit (138) for accessing the system (100).
