Description

System for dental diagnosis and reservation

The present invention relates to a dental diagnosis and treatment reservation system, and to a system capable of providing a simple diagnosis service through an app and conveniently making a dental appointment together with dental knowledge information and provision.

The present invention relates to a system that allows not only a dental diagnosis through an app, but also a dental reservation and management. It is about a system that helps visit a hospital by using information about surrounding dental clinics, and enables real-time treatment status information and real-time reservations at the time of reservation.

In general, when a tooth hurts, most patients visit a dental clinic or a general hospital in which dentistry exists as a medical subject.

At this time, in some cases, visits are made after making a reservation for medical treatment over the phone, and in some cases, medical treatment is received after the visit.

In this way, whether it is a visit after a medical appointment or reception of medical treatment after a visit, all patients have to wait recklessly until it is their turn. For some patients, who find it tedious to wait, all they can do is ask the nurse at the reception desk about their turn.

Also, the treating doctor has the trouble of asking the nurse about how long the patient he or she needs to treat in the future is waiting.

In detail, although medical services are gradually developing, medical consumers have difficulty finding accurate information about hospitals or clinics that are providers of medical services, and most rely on information they hear from their acquaintances. Similarly, hospitals and clinics are not in a state where they can properly promote their services.

As a result, medical consumers do not choose high-level services, and hospitals or clinics do not feel the need for marketing through service competition. Although medical consumers will be able to easily book and receive services in hospitals or clinics, the absence of such services is prolonged and fixed.

There is also a method of accessing the website operated by the hospital or clinic and checking the schedule of the specialist in charge to reserve the treatment date. Reservation itself is not possible if the schedule is saturated or there is no specialist in charge.

Recently, information on hospitals and specialists can be searched for through portal sites or search sites, but it is difficult for medical consumers to identify appropriate specialist hospitals and specialists due to the rapid increase in the number of search methods or searchers on portal sites.

The patient's medical records are managed separately for each hospital, so when a patient changes hospitals, the inconvenience and cost of copying medical records from the previous hospital occurs, and the medical records are not shared, so duplicate prescriptions or combination of drugs Problems with prescription drugs may arise.

In addition, it was difficult to easily access expert advice for one's own tooth leaflet, and comprehensive services such as dental expert contents and dental reservations through smart device apps were not made.

The dental diagnosis and treatment reservation system of the proposed embodiment includes a dental care platform that enables a user to self-diagnose teeth and make a hospital reservation, and a user terminal installed with an application that can use the services provided by the dental care platform; A hospital-side server provided in a hospital that provides expert information or provides hospital reservation and treatment services through a dental care platform, wherein the dental care platform includes a storage unit for storing the user and hospital-side information; A self-diagnosis guide unit for guiding the user with self-diagnosis-related information using the data stored in the storage unit, and delivery of the user's consultation content and the expert's answer content so that the expert consultation requested by the user is possible It is characterized in that it comprises a professional consultation guide for storing the contents of the consultation and the answer to the storage unit while recording, and a hospital reservation unit to enable the reservation of treatment or consultation at the hospital through the application.

In addition, the storage unit includes a self-diagnosis DB that stores related information that allows a user to self-diagnose for problems or prevention of problems occurring in their teeth through the application, an expert contents DB in which tooth-related information written by an expert is stored, and each It is characterized in that it includes a diagnosis/reservation history DB in which past usage information about the user making a diagnosis using the application or making a reservation for a hospital is stored.
