	%X Due to the rise of aging population, effective utilization
of healthcare resources has become an important issue. With the
advance of ICT technology, the application of tele-healthcare service
has received more attention than ever. The main purpose of this
research is to investigate how to conduct innovative design for
tele-healthcare service based on user-s perspectives. First, the
healthcare service blueprint was used to describe the processes
of tele-healthcare service delivery, and then construct PZB service
quality gap model based on the literature and practitioners-
interviews. Next, TRIZ theory is applied to implement service
innovation. We found the proposed service innovation procedures can
effectively improve the quality of service design.
