The vehicle guidance unit 14 receives the guidance instruction 17, and performs an information transmission process of transmitting the guidance information 18 from the guidance information transmission means 15 to the mobile terminal 22 and the vehicle 20 (step S315).

The guidance information transmitting means 15 transmits a call mail (guidance information 18) to the mobile terminal 22 (step S316), transmits guidance information 18 to the vehicle-mounted device 36 of the vehicle 20 (step S317), and vehicle guidance control. The guidance information 18 is transmitted to the means 34 (step S318).

The guidance information 18 to the mobile terminal 22 displays information that the vehicle moves to the parking / stopping areas 30A to 30D, or that the vehicle 20 is left as it is from the exit 30Ex.
Further, the guidance information 18 to the vehicle guidance control means 34 is, for example, opening / closing of a gate, wording on the parking / stopping area 30 by a bulletin board / digital signage, or display of a traveling direction.
Further, the guidance information 18 to the vehicle-mounted device 36 is a display of an instruction to the car navigation system, or, if the vehicle 20 is capable of automatic driving, an instruction to automatically drive the selected parking / stopping area 30.

In this way, when the vehicle identification device detects that the vehicle 20 has entered the entrance 30En, the vehicle 20 can be guided and controlled from the usage information 6 of the patient 21 to the parking / stopping area 30 suitable for the patient 21. ..

Next, with reference to FIG. 10, a process of re-guidating the vehicle 20 in the parking / stopping area 30 will be described. As shown in FIGS. 7A to 7C, the vehicle 20 has moved from the first parking / stopping area 30A to 30D to another parking / stopping area 30A to 30D depending on the usage status of the medical institution 10 of the patient 21. When the parking / stopping determination unit 13 determines that the convenience of the patient 21 is higher, the vehicle 20 is reguided.

First, the parking / stopping determination unit 13 continuously executes the acquisition process of the latest usage information 6 (step S401).
The parking / stopping determination unit 13 transmits a facility usage information acquisition request to the medical institution usage information acquisition unit 11 in order to acquire the usage information 6 including the vehicle information of the vehicle 20 (step S402).
Next, the medical institution usage information acquisition unit 11 acquires the usage information 6 from the medical management system 5 (step S403).
When the medical institution usage information acquisition unit 11 receives the facility usage information acquisition request, the medical institution usage information acquisition unit 11 transmits a facility usage information acquisition request for receiving the usage information 6 to the medical management system 5 (step S404).

In response to the facility usage information acquisition request, the medical management system 5 searches for the usage information 6 of the patient 21 and returns it to the corresponding medical institution usage information acquisition unit 11 (step S405). Further, the medical institution usage information acquisition unit 11 transmits the received usage information 6 to the parking / stopping determination unit 13 (step S406).

Next, the parking / stopping determination unit 13 processes the determination of the parking / stopping area 30 (step S407).
Then, the parking / stopping determination unit 13 determines whether or not the vehicle 20 registered by the patient 21 needs to be guided (step S408).
The determination is based on the usage information 6 and the parking / stopping area information 16. The parking / stopping determination unit 13 compares the usage information 6 acquired last time with the usage information 6 acquired this time, and determines the parking / stopping area 30 when the usage information 6 is not updated or even if the usage information 6 is updated. If it is determined that there is no need to move, it is determined that guidance control is not necessary, and the process ends (No in step S408).

If the usage information 6 is updated and it is determined that the parking / stopping area 30 needs to be moved (Yes in step S408), the parking / stopping area information 16 to be used for determining the parking / stopping area 30 should be acquired. , A parking / stopping area availability information acquisition request is transmitted to the parking / stopping area management unit 12 (step S409).

The parking / stopping area management unit 12 receives the request and returns the parking / stopping area information 16 to the parking / stopping determination unit 13 (step S410).

Then, the parking / stopping determination unit 13 determines the guidance of the registered vehicle 20 of the patient 21 (step S411). The parking / stopping area information 16 and the usage information 6 are matched to determine a parking / stopping area 30 suitable for use by the patient 21.
For example, in the case of guiding, the parking / stopping area 30 closest to the examination room is determined from the information of the clinic currently being examined and the parking / stopping area information 16 (shown in FIGS. 7A to 7C). ). Further, from the usage information 6 of the patient 21, the physical condition of the patient 21 is also a factor for determination. For example, if the patient 21 has difficulty walking such as a wheelchair or a cane during the examination, he / she searches for a route having a slope or an elevator between the reserved examination room and the parking / stopping area 30 and parks the patient. The stop areas 30A to 30D are determined.

Then, the parking / stopping determination unit 13 transmits a guidance instruction 17 to the vehicle guidance unit 14 based on the determination of the guidance (step S412).

The vehicle guidance unit 14 receives the guidance instruction 17, and performs an information transmission process of transmitting the guidance information 18 from the guidance information transmission means 15 to the mobile terminal 22 and the vehicle 20 (step S413).
The information transmission process means that the guidance information transmission means 15 transmits a call mail (guidance information 18) to the mobile terminal 22 (step S414), and transmits the guidance information 18 to the vehicle-mounted device 36 of the vehicle 20 (step S415). , And the guidance information 18 is transmitted to the vehicle guidance control means 34 (step S416).

The patient 21 displays information that the guidance information 18 to the mobile terminal 22 moves to the parking / stopping areas 30A to 30D and the parking / stopping area 30S, or that the vehicle 20 is left as it is from the exit 30Ex.
Further, the guidance information 18 to the vehicle guidance control means 34 is, for example, opening / closing of a gate, a bulletin board, a sensor, a digital signage, or the like to display a wording or a traveling direction in the parking / stopping area 30.
Further, the guidance information 18 to the vehicle-mounted device 36 is a display of an instruction to the car navigation system, or, if the vehicle 20 is capable of automatic driving, an instruction to automatically drive the selected parking / stopping area 30.

In this way, when the usage information 6 of the patient 21 is updated, the vehicle 20 can be guided again to move to the parking / stopping areas 30A to 30D suitable for the patient 21.

In steps S401 to S408, guidance control can be performed by continuously performing a repetitive operation of acquiring the latest usage information.

Further, it is checked by the vehicle identification devices installed in various places of the parking / stopping area 30 whether or not the vehicle 20 has actually arrived at the parking / stopping areas 30A to 30D, and if it has not arrived, the vehicle is guided again (step). S411) Induction control of transition may be performed.
