Pharmacy service is an important process to access patient’s information especially drug use information. Up to date, electronic health data has been stored in the database of Hospital Information System (HIS). It can be accessed from the hospital information system programs such as HOSxP, HoMC and Hospital OS. However, the HIS program was not sufficient to support the routine work and could not facilitate the pharmacy services. The researcher developed a medical record query application in order to assist pharmacy services. The researcher developed a program using the Application Programming Interface (API) concept to connect the database of three hospital information systems, HOSxP, HoMC and Hospital OS, and also developed a medical record query program to connect the API. After the two parts were completely developed, the evaluation of the program in terms of accuracy, speed, and user’s satisfaction was conducted by using a questionnaire. The mean score of an accuracy of the program was at a high level (4.03, SD = 0.72). The mean score of the speed of the program efficiently fast (4.01, SD = 0.92), and the overall satisfaction score of the program was at a high level (4.22, SD = 0.91). When the programs connected to each hospital information system were compared, it was found that the mean scores of the accuracy and the speed of the Hospital OS were significantly different from those of HOSxP and HoMC. Moreover, the users’ satisfaction towards each HIS was different
