Description

  The present invention relates to an information processing apparatus, an information processing system, and a program.

  When a patient needs an ethical drug due to the promotion of division of medicine, a doctor at a medical institution usually examines the patient and issues a prescription, and a pharmacist at the pharmacy dispenses the drug based on the prescription. Sell to patients. Therefore, for pharmaceutical company sales representatives (medical representatives, MRs) whose main business is to provide information to doctors, prescription tracing issued by doctors is extremely important information for understanding sales performance and providing information. It has become.

In other words, once the link between the prescription medical institution and the dispensing pharmacy for ethical drugs is revealed to pharmaceutical companies,
1. The prescription trends of medical institutions and individual doctors that are subject to MR approach are found, and MR performance can be grasped.
2. MR itself understands the relationship between the prescribing medical institution and the dispensing pharmacy to some extent as an on-site sensation, but it can be an objective standard for judging the correctness of the on-site sensation at the sales headquarters of pharmaceutical companies,
3. In addition to our own products, we can infer the prescription status of competitor products and the same medicines, and can be used for future pharmaceutical marketing activities.
Etc. can be used widely.

  Conventionally, the number of prescriptions issued by medical institutions has been personally tabulated through regular (for example, once a year) interviews with dispensing pharmacies (about 57,000 cases nationwide). However, such a tabulation method is very time consuming and excessively burdensome, and the data check function is weak, so there are cases in which credibility and reliability are questionable.

  Patent Document 1 proposes a method of creating statistical data by collecting sales data of pharmaceuticals sold to medical facilities in groups, but the number of prescriptions issued by medical institutions and the demanding pharmacies associated therewith. There is no mention of surveys and tabulations related to the composition ratio.

The embodiment described below shows an example when the present invention is implemented, and the present invention is not limited to the specific configuration described below. In carrying out the present invention, a specific configuration according to the embodiment may be adopted as appropriate.

  FIG. 1 is a schematic block diagram showing a configuration of an information processing system according to an embodiment of the present invention.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the information processing system 1 according to the present embodiment includes an information processing apparatus 10 and a plurality of terminal apparatuses 31 to 3N (N is a normal number) connected to the information processing apparatus 10 via a communication network 2. Integer).

  Among these, the information processing apparatus 10 is, for example, a server. A detailed configuration of the information processing apparatus 10 will be described later. The communication network 2 may be wired or wireless.

  The terminal devices 31 to 3N are terminals for the investigator to access the input screen 40 (see FIG. 6) such as a web page provided by the information processing device 10. As the terminal devices 31 to 3N, for example, a mobile phone, a tablet terminal, a notebook computer, or a desktop personal computer is used. In response to the display on the input screen 40 as shown in FIG. 6, the investigator displays information such as the number of prescriptions requested by the pharmacy in charge of the investigator and the composition ratio of the prescribing medical institution in the number of prescription requests 31 to 3N.

  FIG. 2 is a schematic block diagram illustrating the configuration of the information processing apparatus 10.

As illustrated in FIG. 2, the information processing apparatus 10 includes a CPU (Central Processing Unit) 11, a communication unit 12, a storage unit 13, an input unit 14, and a RAM (Random Access Memory) 15. Yes. Each unit is connected for communication with each other via a bus.

  Among these, the storage unit 13 stores a plurality of master files F1 to F7 as shown in FIG. The storage unit 13 can be realized by, for example, a magnetic disk device.

In the example shown in FIG. 3, the MST pharmacy file F1, the MST medical institution file F2, the MST research company management file F3, the MST prefecture file F4A, the MST city file F4B, and the MST large character common name are stored in the storage unit 13. Address information including a file F4C and an MST zip code file F4D, an MST survey company responsible region file F5, an MST monthly survey company responsible pharmacy file F6, and an MST system setting numerical value file F7 are stored. The MST pharmacy file F1 is a database of nationwide (about 57,000) pharmacies to be investigated. Similar to the MST pharmacy file F1, the MST medical institution F2 is a database of nationwide (about 58,000) medical institutions. The MST research company management file F3 is a database of the research company, and holds information such as the business area. The address information F4A to F4D is used for address linkage of each master file. The area file F5 in charge of the MST investigation company stores an area for which investigation is entrusted for each investigation company. The MST monthly research company-specific pharmacy file F6 stores which research company investigates which region by month, and includes a rotation table. The MST system installation numerical value file F7 stores a threshold value for issuing an abnormal value warning of numerical values input to the terminal devices 31 to 3N.

  Although not shown, the storage unit 13 stores a list of a plurality of change reason candidates.

  Furthermore, the storage unit 13 stores a table of the number of prescriptions for each pharmacy that has been confirmed at the time of the previous survey and the composition ratio of the prescription medical institution.

  The RAM 15 holds programs and temporary data used for the operation of the CPU 11. The CPU 11 functions as the processing unit 16 by reading a program from the RAM 15 and executing it. Details of the processing of the processing unit 16 will be described later.

  The input unit 14 is a part that receives an input from an administrator who manages the information processing apparatus 10, for example, a command for causing the processing unit 16 to immediately execute the process, or for causing the processing unit 16 to periodically execute the process. The calendar settings are entered by the administrator. When calendar settings are input to the input unit 14, the input calendar settings are stored in the RAM 15 or the storage unit 13.

  The communication unit 12 communicates with the terminal devices 31 to 3N via the communication line network 2. The communication unit 12 sends information such as the number of prescriptions for pharmacies input to the terminal devices 31 to 3N and the composition ratio of the prescription medical institution in the number of prescriptions for demand from the terminal devices 31 to 3N via the communication line network 2. Get.

  More specifically, the communication unit 12 displays an input screen 40 as shown in FIG. 6 on the terminal devices 31 to 3N, and assists the investigator to input information to the terminal devices 31 to 3N. In the example shown in FIG. 6, the input field 41 for the number of demanding prescriptions for the pharmacy A, the input field 42 for the composition ratio of the prescription prescribed by the hospital among the number of demanding prescriptions, and the composition ratio of the prescription prescribed by the hospital A Each of the columns 43 is blank.

  When the investigator inputs information in each of the blank input fields 41 to 43 and presses the update button 44, the entered numerical value is transmitted to the communication unit 12 of the information processing apparatus 10 via the communication network 2. When the input numerical value is different from the numerical value at the time of the previous survey exceeding a certain range, the processing unit 16 displays a list of change reason candidates stored in the storage unit 13 as shown in FIG. 46 is popped up on the terminal devices 31 to 3N. Unless the investigator selects the reason for change from the list and presses the update button on the screen 46, the input numerical value is not stored in the storage unit 13.

  Further, if the investigator presses the update button 44 without inputting information in the input fields 41 to 43 in FIG. 6, it is assumed that there is no change from the numerical value at the previous investigation, and the numerical value at the previous investigation is the communication network 2. Is transmitted to the communication unit 12 of the information processing apparatus 10 via

  When the investigator inputs numerical values to the terminal devices 31 to 31N, the processing unit 16 stores the prescription number of prescriptions and prescriptions of the pharmacy at the time of the previous survey stored in the storage unit 13, as shown in FIG. It is preferable to display the composition ratio of the former medical institution on the terminal devices 31 to 3N. In this case, when the investigator inputs a numerical value to the terminal devices 31 to 3N, it becomes possible to perform an input operation while referring to the numerical value at the time of the previous investigation, and input errors can be reduced.

  In the storage unit 13, the information on the number of prescriptions requested by the pharmacy and the composition ratio of the prescribing medical institution acquired by the communication unit 12 is stored for each pharmacy as a pre-determined numerical value by a table called TBL prescription input specification D1 shown in FIG. Remembered.

  The processing unit 16 stores the number of prescription requests for pharmacies acquired by the communication unit 12 and the composition ratio of the prescribing medical institution (that is, a numerical value before determination stored in the storage unit 13 using a table called TBL prescription input specification D1). Compared with the number of prescriptions requested by the pharmacy and the prescription medical institution at the time of the previous survey stored in the unit 13. Then, when the comparison result by the processing unit 16 does not exceed the threshold value stored in the MST system installation numerical value file F7 (for example, when the rate of change of the numerical value acquired this time relative to the numerical value at the time of the previous survey is less than 10%). The processing unit 16 determines that the numerical value acquired this time can be confirmed, and stores it in the storage unit 13 as a finalized numerical value using a table called TBL prescription finalized details D3.

  On the other hand, when the comparison result by the processing unit 16 exceeds the threshold stored in the MST system installation numerical file F7 (for example, the numerical value acquired this time is increased or decreased by 10% or more compared to the previous numerical value stored) The processing unit 16 determines that the numerical value acquired this time is not finalized, stores it in the storage unit 13 using a table called TBL leveling work specification D2, and inputs the numerical value input to the administrator A warning is issued to determine whether or not it can be confirmed. In this case, a determination as to whether or not the administrator confirms the numerical value stored in the storage unit 13 by the table called the TBL leveling work specification D2 is input to the input unit 14. When the numerical value is determined by the administrator's judgment, the numerical value stored in the storage unit 13 by the table called TBL leveling work specification D2 is the numerical value already determined by the table called TBL prescription determination specification D3 in the storage unit 13. Is remembered as On the other hand, if it is determined by the administrator that it cannot be confirmed, the administrator issues an instruction for re-investigation to the investigator of another investigation company (for example, the investigation company scheduled at the next investigation in the rotation table). In this specification, this series of checking operations may be referred to as “leveling”. In leveling work, an abnormal value is checked by a plurality of departments, so that an input error or the like is prevented and data accuracy is ensured.

  A table indicated by reference sign D4 in FIG. 4 shows an example of a confirmed numerical value stored in the storage unit 13. In the example shown in FIG. 4, for the pharmacy “A pharmacy”, the number of prescriptions on demand is 100 sheets, of which 80% (ie 80 sheets) are prescribed by Hospital A, Information that the prescription is 20% (that is, 20 sheets) is associated and stored. In addition, the number of prescriptions for the pharmacy “B Pharmacy” is 200, of which 40% (ie, 80) are prescribed by the hospital, and 60 prescriptions are prescribed by the hospital. % (That is, 120 sheets) is stored in association with each other.

  Next, the processing unit 16 issues a medical institution based on the demanded prescription number X1, X2 of each determined pharmacy stored in the storage unit 13 and the composition ratio Y1, Y2, Z1, Z2 of the prescribing medical institution. The number of prescriptions P1 and P2 is calculated (refer to the table indicated by reference numeral D5 in FIG. 4).

For example, the processing unit 16 stores the demand prescription number X1 = 100 of the A pharmacy stored in the storage unit 13, the composition ratio Y1 = 80% of the prescription prescribed by the hospital A, and the demand prescription number X2 = 200 of the B pharmacy. Then, based on the composition ratio Y2 = 40% of the prescription prescribed by the hospital A, the number of issued prescriptions P1 of the hospital A is calculated to be 160 by the calculation of the following formula (1).
P1 = X1 * Y1 + X2 * Y2 = 160 (1)

Similarly, the processing unit 16 stores the demand prescription number X1 = 100 of the A pharmacy stored in the storage unit 13, the composition ratio Z1 = 20% of the prescription prescribed by the hospital A, and the demand prescription number X2 of the B pharmacy. = 200, and the composition ratio Z2 of the prescription prescribed by Y hospital among them is 60%, and the issued prescription number P2 of Y hospital is calculated to be 140 by the calculation of the following equation (2).
P2 = X1 * Z1 + X2 * Z2 = 140 (2)

  Further, the processing unit 16 stores the demand prescription number X1, X2 of each pharmacy stored in the storage unit 13 and the composition ratios Y1, Y2, Z1, Z2 of the prescription medical institution, and the calculated prescription number P1 of the medical institution. , P2, and the composition ratios Q1, Q2, R1, R2 of the demanding pharmacies in the number of issued prescriptions.

For example, the processing unit 16 determines the number of prescriptions X1 = 100 for A Pharmacy stored in the storage unit 13, the prescription ratio Y1 = 80% of the prescriptions prescribed by the hospital A, and the calculated number of prescriptions issued by the hospital A Based on P1 = 160, the composition ratio Q1 of the prescription requested by the A pharmacy out of the number of prescriptions P1 issued by the hospital A is calculated to be 50% by the calculation of the following formula (3).
Q1 = X1 × Y1 / P1 = 50% (3)

Similarly, the processing unit 16 calculates the number of prescriptions X2 = 200 for B Pharmacy stored in the storage unit 13 and the composition ratio Y2 = 40% of the prescriptions prescribed by the hospital A. Based on the prescription number P1 = 160, it is calculated that the composition ratio R1 of the prescription requested by the B pharmacy is 50% of the issued prescription number P1 of the hospital A by the calculation of the following formula (4).
R1 = X2 × Y2 / P1 = 50% (4)

In addition, the processing unit 16 calculates the number of prescriptions X1 = 100 for the A Pharmacy stored in the storage unit 13, the composition ratio Z1 = 20% of the prescriptions prescribed by the hospital A, and the calculated number of prescriptions issued by the hospital A Based on P2 = 140, the composition ratio Q2 of the prescription demanded by the A pharmacy out of the number of prescriptions P2 issued by the hospital A is calculated to be 14% by the calculation of the following formula (5).
Q1 = X1 × Z1 / P2≈14% (5)

Similarly, the processing unit 16 calculates the number of prescriptions X2 = 200 for B Pharmacy stored in the storage unit 13 and the composition ratio Z2 = 60% of the prescriptions prescribed by the hospital Y. Based on the prescription number P2 = 140, the calculation formula (6) is used to calculate that the composition ratio R2 of the prescription requested by the B pharmacy out of the prescription number P2 issued by the hospital B is 86%.
R2 = X2 × Z2 / P2≈86% (6)

  Next, an information processing method using the information processing system 1 having such a configuration will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 5 is a flowchart illustrating an example of an information processing method using the information processing system 1.

  For each survey period (for example, every month), the survey company and the region to be surveyed are specified based on the rotation table of the MST monthly survey company-specific pharmacy file F6. Then, a work instruction regarding the pharmacy in the specified area is notified to the investigator of the investigation company specified by the administrator (step S51).

The communication unit 12 of the information processing apparatus 10 displays the input screen 40 as shown in FIG. 6 on the terminal devices 31 to 3N for the investigator of the current month (step S52). The investigator inputs information such as the number of prescriptions requested by the pharmacy designated by the administrator and the composition ratio of the prescription medical institution in the number of prescriptions for demand according to the display on the input screen 40.

  In the example illustrated in FIG. 6, the communication unit 12 of the information processing device 10 displays the numerical values at the previous survey time stored in the storage unit 13 on the terminal devices 31 to 3N. Therefore, when the investigator inputs a numerical value to the terminal devices 31 to 3N, it becomes possible to perform the input while referring to the numerical value at the time of the previous investigation, and input errors can be reduced (step S53).

  Information input to the terminal devices 31 to 3N is acquired by the communication unit 12 of the information processing device 10 via the communication line network 2.

  The processing unit 16 of the information processing apparatus 10 stores the number of pharmacy demand prescriptions obtained by the communication unit 12 and the composition ratio of the prescribing medical institution, and the number of pharmacy demand prescriptions at the time of the previous survey stored in the storage unit 13. Comparison is made with the composition ratio of the prescription medical institution (step S54). Then, if the comparison results differ beyond a certain range, the processing unit 16 pops up a screen 46 for selecting the reason for change, and obtains a numerical value acquired only after an appropriate change reason is selected by the investigator. It records in the memory | storage part 13 as a numerical value before decision (step S55). If the comparison result is the same or within a certain range, or if the update button is pressed without being input, the processing unit 16 records the acquired numerical value as it is in the storage unit 13 as a fixed numerical value (Step S16). S56).

  Next, the processing unit 16 warns the administrator to determine whether or not the numerical value recorded in the storage unit 13 as a pre-determined numerical value because the comparison result has exceeded a predetermined threshold value. Determines whether to finalize the numerical value based on the previous and current numerical values and the rate of change thereof, or the reason for the change selected by the investigator, or to instruct another research company to conduct a reinvestigation (step S57). ). When the numerical value is confirmed by the administrator, the storage unit 13 stores the numerical value as the fixed numerical value as it is (step S56).

  If it is determined by the administrator to conduct a reinvestigation, the investigation company that plans to investigate the pharmacy in the area at the next investigation will investigate the reinvestigation destination. That is, it returns to said step S51 and another investigation company investigates again.

  After step S56, as shown in FIG. 4, the processing unit 16 stores the prescription number X1, X2 for each confirmed pharmacy stored in the storage unit 13 and the composition ratios Y1, Y2, Z1, prescription medical institution. Based on Z2, the number of prescriptions P1 and P2 issued by the medical institution is calculated (step S58).

  Subsequently, the processing unit 16 issues the calculated medical institution issuance and the prescription number of medical prescriptions X1 and X2 of each pharmacy stored in the storage unit 13 and the composition ratios Y1, Y2, Z1 and Z2 of the prescribing medical institution Based on the prescription number P1, P2, the composition ratios Q1, Q2, R1, R2 of the demand pharmacies in the issued prescription number are calculated (step S59).

  The data generated by the processing unit 16 (see FIG. 4) is provided to the sales headquarters of the pharmaceutical company as a material for grasping the sales performance of the sales representative (MR) of the pharmaceutical company, for example.

According to the present embodiment as described above, the communication unit 12 obtains the number of prescription demands of the pharmacy input to the terminal devices 31 to 3N by the investigator and the composition ratio of the prescription medical institution in the number of prescription demands. In this case, whether or not the numerical value acquired this time is confirmed is determined based on the count of the previous survey time stored in the storage unit and a predetermined threshold value. Based on the above, the number of prescriptions issued by the medical institution is calculated. Thereby, it is possible to prevent a careless mistake at the time of input from affecting the counting result, and it is possible to provide highly reliable data on the number of prescriptions issued by a medical institution and the composition ratio of demanding pharmacies associated therewith. In addition, since the burden on the investigator involved in the aggregation is greatly reduced, it is possible to increase the frequency of data aggregation and provide the data in a timely manner.

  By the way, the sales representatives (MRs) of pharmaceutical companies have traditionally grasped the proportion of pharmacies where patients at each medical institution submit prescriptions to some extent, but the sales headquarters of pharmaceutical companies There was no means to verify sex.

  On the other hand, according to the present embodiment, the processing unit 16 issues the issuance based on the determined number of prescriptions for each pharmacy on demand and the composition ratio of the prescription medical institution, and the calculated number of prescriptions issued by the medical institution. Since the composition ratio of the demanding pharmacies in the number of prescriptions is calculated, highly reliable data can be provided for the composition ratio of the pharmacies in which patients of each medical institution submit prescriptions.

  In addition, according to the present embodiment, the processing unit 16 stores the number of prescription demands of the pharmacy and the composition ratio of the prescription medical institution in the demanding prescriptions number to the terminal devices 31 to 3N by the investigator. In order to cause the terminal devices 31 to 3N to display the number of prescriptions requested by the pharmacy and the composition ratio of the prescribing medical institution stored in the unit 13 at the time of the previous survey, the investigator displays the previous survey time displayed on the terminal devices 31 to 3N. It is possible to perform input while referring to the numerical value in, and input errors can be reduced.

  In addition, according to the present embodiment, the storage unit 13 stores a list of a plurality of change reason candidates, and the processing unit 16 obtains the number of prescriptions required by the pharmacy and the prescription medical treatment acquired by the communication unit 12. If the composition ratio of the institution differs from the composition ratio of the prescription medical institution of the pharmacy at the time of the previous survey stored in the storage section 13 beyond a certain range, it is stored in the storage section 13. The list is displayed on the terminal devices 31 to 3N, and the reason for change selected by the investigator is acquired from the terminal devices 31 to 3N. The count may change significantly compared to the previous survey due to reasons such as the change of the hospital of the nearby prescription medical institution, etc., but the reason for change selected by the investigator is acquired from the terminal devices 31 to 3N, for example, The reason for change acquired when visually confirming the numerical value acquired by the administrator can also be used as a judgment material, and it is possible to more accurately determine whether the administrator confirms the numerical value or sends it to a re-investigation. This greatly increases the reliability of the data.

  Moreover, according to this Embodiment, the memory | storage part 13 memorize | stores several investigation companies for every area to which investigation is entrusted, and which investigation company investigates which local pharmacy for every investigation period. Since the rotation table is stored, for example, if the survey period is monthly, pharmacies in the same region are surveyed every month, but each month the administrator specifies the rotation table to the survey company specified in the rotation table. A work order can be communicated to the pharmacy. As a result, since a plurality of survey companies conduct surveys using a rotation number according to a certain rotation, the survey is conducted through the eyes of a plurality of surveyors, and the reliability of the survey content is increased. In addition, when re-investigating, the administrator can check through multiple inspections by referring to the rotation table and assigning it to a different investigation company than the person who was in charge of the previous investigation. Through this, it becomes possible to provide highly reliable data.

  By the way, as an investigator who inputs information such as the composition number of the prescription medical institution in the demand prescription number of pharmacies and the prescription number of prescriptions to the terminal devices 31 to 3N, the terminal devices 31 to It is desirable that the time and burden of information input to 3N be as small as possible.

In this regard, according to the present embodiment, in order to input information from the terminal devices 31 to 3N connected to the information processing apparatus 10 via the communication network 2, the investigator performs the information input operation. There is no need to go to the place where the information processing apparatus 10 is installed. In addition, when there are a plurality of terminal devices 31 to 3N, each investigator can perform information input work simultaneously on different terminal devices 31 to 3N, and other investigations can be performed during the work of one investigator. There is no inconvenience that a person cannot work. Therefore, the work load on the investigator is relatively small. In addition, since the work load on the investigator is reduced, it is possible to increase the frequency of data aggregation and provide data in a timely manner. Specifically, for example, in the conventional human count, the frequency for each year was the limit, but according to the present embodiment, the data provision frequency can be increased to the frequency for each month. it can.

In other words, the present embodiment is significantly superior in the following points as compared with the conventional human tabulation method mentioned in the background art section.
1. According to the present embodiment, speeding up of information processing is realized, and it is possible to expand the survey frequency of about once a year up to once a month, and the information freshness is greatly improved.
2. In the present embodiment, machine tabulation, a threshold check function, and various databases are mounted to avoid artificial work as much as possible, and the processability and accuracy of provided data are improved.
3. In the present embodiment, the following error prevention measures are introduced in order to minimize human error during input.
(1) Check the accuracy of the input count by referring to the previous survey count at the time of input.
(2) When inputting a count that exceeds a certain threshold with the previous count, select the reason for the count change from the assumed options and use it as a reference for checking whether the changed count is finalized.
(3) The person in charge of the re-investigation must be an investigation company different from the previous investigation company.
(4) In the investigation, schedule the investigation company rotation in advance so that the same investigation company does not always conduct the target pharmacy and investigate the pharmacy with the eyes of multiple people.
4). As for the establishment, renovation and abolition of medical institutions and pharmacies, follow-up on site is the fastest, and early information collection is possible.

  Although the information processing apparatus 10 according to the present embodiment can be configured by a computer system, a program for causing the computer system to realize the information processing apparatus 10 and a recording medium on which the program is recorded are also subject to protection in this case.
