[0209]
Next, a description will be given of data expression and processing examples when performing diagnostic processing using a relational database.
[0210]
FIG. 21 is an example of a progress table used in the processing of the present embodiment, and is obtained by changing the flowchart of FIG. 18 into a progress table.
[0211]
That is, as many routes as possible are extracted from the starting point of the flowchart, and a table in which the points (disease state, selection, etc.) 610 followed by the extracted routes is generated. Then, a table 620 with one extracted path as a column is generated. A list of such routes can be created using a relational database.
[0212]
FIG. 22 is a flowchart for explaining an example of processing for deriving a diagnosis result based on the progress table, and FIG. 23 is a diagram showing a process of extracting a route from the progress table according to the flow.
[0213]
Here, the symptoms reported by the client A from the terminal are as follows: (1) The fever is very high (2) The heat does not last for a long time (3) The body is dull (4) The throat is painful.
[0214]
First, from the progress table (see FIG. 26) based on the symptom (1) of the client A, “starting point” = “with fever”, “symptom 1” = “high fever”, and “selection 1” = “present”. Only the route is narrowed down as necessary for future determination (see FIG. 23A), and the “duration” of the next “symptom 2” is set as the next question item (step S110).
[0215]
Next, only the route corresponding to “Select 2” = “Short term” is selected from the route of the progress table extracted in step S110 based on the symptom (2) of client A (see the shaded portion 630 in FIG. 23A). Are narrowed down as necessary for future determination (see FIG. 23 (B)), and the next “symptom 3” “sag of body” is set as the next question item (step S120).
[0216]
Next, from the route of the progress table extracted in step S120 based on the symptom (3) of client A (see FIG. 23B), only the route corresponding to “Select 3” = “Yes” is determined for future determination. The necessary items are narrowed down (see the shaded portion 640 in FIG. 23B), and the next “symptom 4” “throatache” is set as the next question item (step S130).
[0217]
Next, from the route of the progress table extracted in step S130 based on the symptom (4) of client A (see FIG. 23C), only the route corresponding to “Select 4” = “Yes” is determined for future determination. Narrow down as necessary (see the shaded portion 650 in FIG. 23C). Since “symptom 5” and “selection 5” to be selected next are blank, it is considered that the question has been completed, and the result of this route is selected as the diagnosis result (step S140).
[0218]
Next, an example of the medical cost deduction information providing service of this system will be described.
24A, 24 </ b> B, and 24 </ b> C are diagrams for explaining an example of the medical cost deduction information providing service of the present system.
[0219]
In this system, as shown in FIG. 24 (A), a purchase application for a commercially available drug is received from a terminal via a network, and a purchase history for the received application for a purchased drug is stored. For example, purchase information related to a purchase application for which payment has been made may be stored in the medical cost deduction information database in association with user identification information.
[0220]
In this system, as shown in FIG. 24B, the amount and details of medical treatment can be registered from the terminal via the network. For example, based on an application for registration of expenses for hospital treatment, the expenses for hospital treatment may be stored in the medical expense deduction information database in association with the user identification information.
[0221]
The medical cost deduction information is read from the medical cost deduction information database at a predetermined timing, and the read medical cost deduction information is transmitted to a terminal corresponding to the user identification information associated with the information via the network. When it is detected that the actual time is a predetermined time before the final tax return, the medical cost deduction information is read from the medical cost deduction database and a notification email for final tax declaration as shown in FIG. You may make it transmit to the terminal of the registered client. The notification email for final declaration 660 is notified of the purchase history 662 of the over-the-counter medicine for which purchase application has been made through this system, the cost 664 for the treatment in the hospital registered in this system, and the like.
[0222]
