TW201413633A - Prompting system and method for waits of medical diagnosis - Google Patents

Abstract

This invention relates to a prompting system and a method for waits of a medical diagnosis. A doctor may initiate a scheduling calculation module based on diagnosis wait numbers to calculate the time to be spent by a patient leaving for the hospital from his or her residence and the wait time from the diagnosis of the hour for another patient to the patient attending to the diagnosis. When the time for the patient's arrival at the hospital is equivalent to his or her wait time for medical diagnosis, the system will automatically send out message to the patient's electronic device (e.g. a conventional or smart cell phone) in due course, for notifying the patient to go to see a doctor. Accordingly, it can prevent the patient from spending much time in waiting for medical diagnosis. Particularly, if the patient keeps a smart cell phone on hand, the system is able to search the location of the patient to estimate the time for his or her arrival at the hospital and send out the message to the patient's cell phone for notifying the patient to go to see a doctor, when the time of the patient's arrival at the hospital equals to his or her wait time for medical diagnosis. In this case, the patient may do something else near the hospital during his or her wait time.

Description

Waiting reminder system and method

The present invention relates to a waiting reminding system and method, and more particularly to a notification system established between a medical provider and a medical demander. The notification system can provide immediate information of the patient to obtain medical services more efficiently and improve. Medical satisfaction.

Press, when going to the hospital for treatment, most of the time is spent on waiting time. The actual time of the visit is relatively short; therefore, the patient usually estimates the time to visit according to the number of the appointment registration; The symptoms of different patients are different, and the time of visiting is also different. Therefore, it is often estimated that the time of diagnosis is inaccurate, resulting in patients often having long-term waiting outside the clinic, resulting in wasted time.

For example, the multi-path real-time transmission of the multi-path instant transmission of the invention is called the invention patent application; the main purpose is to integrate the instant messaging transmission technology into the outpatient call notification service. It includes functions such as web page enquiry, mobile phone newsletter notification and telephone voice notification. The system has multi-path instant transmission technology to convert the current serial number of the clinic into a web page format for immediate query by patients. It can also be transmitted via mobile phone newsletter. To notify the patient who is about to arrive; or to make a voice inquiry by the patient; or the system can actively send a voice to notify the waiting patient.

However, the system only provides the serial number of the current visit between the clinics, and does not compare the time spent by the patient's residence or the current location to the hospital, and then notifys when the waiting time is equal to the time of admission. The function of the patient to start a doctor, therefore, this method still can not improve the lack of long waiting time.

Another example is the new patent for the medical information cloud service website architecture with the diagnosis number of the certificate number No. M410260 of China, which mainly allows the patient information device to query the electronic device through the Internet function and can receive and display signals. Knowing the contents of the current number, it is also possible to estimate the time of the patient's information device. It is not necessary to wait for information such as the number in the medical institution. In addition, the advertisement can also be provided. The agency's advertising information is embedded in the message transmitted to the patient information device via the website center. In order to save the patient's waiting time in the medical institution, and to increase the possibility of being noticed by the advertising agency's advertisement.

However, in the above-mentioned manner, the patient information device can only know the contents of the current number through the electronic device having the Internet function and can receive and display the signal, and estimate the number of the patient information device. The time of the visit is not based on the time taken by the patient's residence or the current location to go to the hospital, and the patient's departure function is notified when the waiting time is equal to the time of the hospital. Therefore, this method Still can't improve the lack of long waiting time.

Another example is China's certificate No. M335751, which registers a new patent for the instant notification system. The case is mainly for the information analysis unit to use the statistical analysis method to know the time of consultation of each patient at the time of the visit, and as a historical reference. At the same time, using the information of on-site visit observation progress and historical visit progress, the comparison analysis is carried out to estimate the progress of the doctor's visit today, and the patient's visit number is used to estimate the possible visit time of the patient, and The result is notified to the user via the wireless communication module, so that the user can use the message to decide when to leave for the visit waiting area.

However, this method can no longer be further compared according to the time spent by the patient's residence or the current location to the hospital, and the patient is notified to go to the hospital when the waiting time is equal to the time of the hospital. Therefore, the method Still can't completely improve the lack of long waiting time.

That is to say, in the planning methods disclosed in the above patents, the patient is required to take the initiative to perform an inquiry operation (such as on-site viewing, on-network inquiry or calling to the clinic), or the system actively transmits a notification through wireless communication. In order to know the progress of the doctor's visit, but the travel time required for each patient to the hospital is not equivalent to the waiting time, the patient is notified to the hospital. Therefore, the above case will still occur. After the waiting time is too long, or the patient has been seen (late), and need to wait for the medical staff to see the doctor.

The main object of the present invention is to provide a comparison according to the time spent by the patient's residence or the current location to the hospital, and notify the patient to go to the hospital when the waiting time is equal to the hospital time to avoid waste.
