Description

予約管理装置、予約管理方法およびプログラムReservation management device, reservation management method and program
 本発明は、例えば、医療機関に対する通院予約の情報を管理する予約管理装置、方法およびプログラムに関する。 The present invention relates to, for example, a reservation management device, a method, and a program for managing information on outpatient reservation for a medical institution.
 近年、医療機関では患者の容態や治療過程を記録するカルテを、問診票や患者の個人情報とともに電子化し、これをEMR(Electronic Medical Records)情報として記録するシステムを導入している医療機関が増加している。EMRデータを用いることで、例えば、医師は自身の端末において、患者の検査データや診療履歴を総合的に管理することが可能となる。 In recent years, medical institutions have increased the number of medical institutions that have introduced a system that digitizes medical records that record the patient's condition and treatment process, together with medical questionnaires and patient personal information, and records this as EMR (Electronic Medical Records) information. doing. By using the EMR data, for example, a doctor can comprehensively manage examination data and medical treatment history of a patient at his / her own terminal.
 また、医療機関では通院患者に対する予約情報を管理し、この予約情報に基づいて患者の診療を行うことで、多くの患者について日時を分けて待ち時間が長くならないように効率良く診療できるようにしている。例えば、特許文献1には、予めサービスの予約者の待ち時間の上限値(条件)を設定し、予約者の条件を満たすような空き枠を決めることにより、新たな利用者の予約を適切な空き枠に割り当てることができ、待ち時間を短縮することができる旨が記載されている。 In addition, medical institutions manage appointment information for outpatients and treat patients based on this appointment information so that many patients can be treated efficiently by dividing the date and time so that waiting time does not increase. I have. For example, in Patent Literature 1, an upper limit value (condition) of a waiting time of a service reservation person is set in advance, and an empty frame satisfying the condition of the reservation person is determined, so that a new user reservation can be appropriately performed. It is described that it can be assigned to an empty frame, and the waiting time can be reduced.

 ところで、一般に患者にとって通院は面倒なものであり、たとえ待ち時間が短縮されてもその他の理由により通院を怠ってしまうことがある。例えば、多忙だったり、医療機関が遠方だったり、医療機関での処置が苦痛だったりすると、通院を敬遠しがちになることが多い。また、自覚症状がない場合や緩和された場合にも、患者は通院を勝手に中断してしまう場合が想定される。 By the way, hospital visits are generally troublesome for patients, and even if the waiting time is shortened, they may fail to visit the hospital for other reasons. For example, if the person is busy, the medical institution is far away, or the treatment at the medical institution is painful, it tends to avoid hospital visits. In addition, even when there is no subjective symptom or when the condition is alleviated, it is assumed that the patient will arbitrarily interrupt the hospital visit.
 しかしながら、通院を怠ることは、病状の悪化や処置の遅れ等の事態を生じかねず非常に好ましくない。従って、患者に通院を継続させるための新たな対策が切望されている。 However, neglecting to go to the hospital is very undesirable because it may cause deterioration of the medical condition and delay in treatment. Therefore, there is a long-felt need for new countermeasures to keep patients going to hospital.
 この発明は、上記事情を鑑みて成されたもので、一側面では、患者の継続的な通院を効果的に支援できるようにした予約管理装置、方法およびプログラムを提供しようとするものである。 The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and in one aspect, it is an object of the present invention to provide a reservation management device, a method, and a program that can effectively support continuous visits to patients.

Is stored in the disclosure control information storage unit 122 in association with the patient ID.
 開示制御情報生成部112は、以上のステップS13~ステップS17による処理を、予約情報の開示を許諾している患者の一人ひとりに対し繰り返し実行する。そして、すべての対象患者について開示制御情報の生成が終了したことをステップS18により判定すると、待機状態となる。 (4) The disclosure control information generation unit 112 repeatedly executes the processing in steps S13 to S17 described above for each patient who is permitted to disclose the reservation information. Then, when it is determined in step S18 that the generation of the disclosure control information has been completed for all target patients, a standby state is set.
 なお、この待機状態において予約管理装置10は、定期的に或いは一人の患者の予約情報が更新されるごとに、上記ステップS10~ステップS18により電子カルテ情報の取得処理および開示制御情報の生成処理を実行し、これにより開示制御情報を更新する。 In this standby state, the reservation management device 10 performs the process of acquiring the electronic medical record information and the process of generating the disclosure control information in steps S10 to S18 periodically or every time the reservation information of one patient is updated. And updates the disclosure control information.
 (2-3)予約情報の開示制御
 上記待機状態において、患者の一人がそのユーザ端末31から予約情報の開示要求を送信したとする。この開示要求には、例えば開示希望日時を表す情報が含まれる。上記開示要求は、ネットワーク50を介して予約管理装置10の通信インタフェースユニット13により受信される。
(2-3) Disclosure control of reservation information It is assumed that one of the patients has transmitted a reservation information disclosure request from the user terminal 31 in the standby state. This disclosure request includes, for example, information indicating the desired disclosure date and time. The disclosure request is received by the communication interface unit 13 of the reservation management device 10 via the network 50.
 予約管理装置10は、上記開示要求の受信をステップS19により確認すると、開示制御部113の制御の下、ステップS20において、先ず予約情報記憶部123から予約日時が上記開示要求に含まれる開示希望日時に該当する患者をすべて選択する。例えば、開示希望日時が「〇月△日の午前中」に指定されていれば、予約日時がこの〇月△日の午前中に含まれる患者がすべて選択される。なお、予約希望日時としては日にち以外に曜日や週でもよく、患者の希望により任意に指定できる。さらには、開示要求に診療科名や担当医を指定してもよい。 When the reservation management device 10 confirms the reception of the disclosure request in step S19, under the control of the disclosure control unit 113, first in step S20, the reservation date and time from the reservation information storage unit 123 includes the desired disclosure date and time included in the disclosure request. Select all patients who meet. For example, if the desired disclosure date and time is designated as “morning of 〇 / △”, all the patients whose reservation date and time are included in the morning of 〇 / △ are selected. The desired reservation date and time may be a day of the week or a week other than the date, and can be arbitrarily specified according to the patient's request. Further, the department name and the doctor in charge may be specified in the disclosure request.
 次に開示制御部113は、上記選択された各患者に対応する開示制御情報を開示制御情報記憶部122から読み出す。この開示制御情報には、開示可能な属性情報および開示相手先として許諾されている患者を表す情報が含まれている。開示制御部113は、上記読み出された各患者の開示制御情報のうち、先ず開示要求をした患者を開示相手先として許諾している患者の開示制御情報を選択する。また開示制御部113は、上記選択された各患者の開示制御情報をもとに、開示対象の属性情報を特定する。そして、上記選択された患者ごとに、その予約情報を予約情報記憶部123から読み出し、当該予約情報と上記特定された属性情報とを含む開示情報を生成し、当該開示情報を開示要求した患者のユーザ端末31に向け通信インタフェースユニット13から送信する。 Next, the disclosure control unit 113 reads the disclosure control information corresponding to each of the selected patients from the disclosure control information storage unit 122. The disclosure control information includes attribute information that can be disclosed and information indicating a patient who is permitted as a disclosure destination. The disclosure control unit 113 selects, from among the read disclosure control information of each patient, first, the disclosure control information of the patient who has permitted the disclosure requesting patient as a disclosure partner. Further, the disclosure control unit 113 specifies the disclosure target attribute information based on the disclosure control information of each of the selected patients. Then, for each of the selected patients, the reservation information is read from the reservation information storage unit 123, the disclosure information including the reservation information and the specified attribute information is generated, and the disclosure information of the patient who has requested the disclosure of the disclosure information is generated. It is transmitted from the communication interface unit 13 to the user terminal 31.
 この結果、開示要求した患者のユーザ端末31には、上記開示希望日時に予約されているすべての患者のうち、開示要求した患者を開示相手先として許諾している各患者の予約情報と属性情報が送信され、例えば表示器に一覧表示される。 As a result, the user terminal 31 of the patient who has made the disclosure request has the reservation information and the attribute information of each patient who has licensed the patient who has made the disclosure request as a disclosure destination among all the patients reserved at the desired date and time of disclosure. Is transmitted and, for example, a list is displayed on the display.
 開示要求した患者は、表示された上記各患者の予約情報および属性情報をもとに、例えば、知り合いの患者や、まだ面識はないが受診する診療科が同じで性別や年齢が近い患者を見つけることができる。そして、例えば自身の予約日時をこれらの患者と同じ日時になるように予約管理装置10に対し変更要求を行う。予約管理装置10は、上記変更要求を受信すると、予約情報管理部114の制御の下、上記患者による予約日時の変更の可否を判定した後、可能であれば予約情報記憶部123における上記患者の予約情報を登録変更する。なお、例えば患者が予約日時の登録変更を電話により連絡した場合には、医療スタッフが変更の可否を判断して医師端末40において変更操作を行う。 Based on the displayed reservation information and attribute information of each of the above-mentioned patients, for example, the patient who has made a disclosure request finds, for example, a patient who is acquainted or a patient who has no acquaintance but has the same medical department and is close in gender and age. be able to. Then, a change request is made to the reservation management apparatus 10 so that, for example, its own reservation date and time are the same as those of these patients. Upon receiving the change request, the reservation management device 10 determines whether or not the patient can change the reservation date and time under the control of the reservation information management unit 114, and if possible, changes the patient's information in the reservation information storage unit 123 if possible. Change reservation information. In addition, for example, when the patient notifies the change of the registration of the reservation date and time by telephone, the medical staff judges whether or not the change is possible and performs the change operation on the doctor terminal 40.

(3) Disclosure Processing in Group Disclosure Mode FIG. 6 is a flowchart illustrating an example of a processing procedure and processing contents of the reservation management device 10 when the group disclosure mode is set.
 (3-1)電子カルテ情報の取得
 予約管理装置10は、電子カルテ情報取得部111の制御の下、先ずステップS30において予約情報記憶部123から予約情報が仮登録されている患者のリストを読み出す。つまり通院が必要な患者のリストを読み出す。次にステップS31において、上記リストに含まれる患者の中から、上記予約情報に含まれる開示条件をもとに予約情報の開示を許諾している患者を選択する。そしてステップS32において、上記開示を許諾している患者の電子カルテ情報を、EMRサーバ20からネットワーク50を介して取得し、取得した電子カルテ情報を患者IDと関連付けて電子カルテ情報記憶部121に記憶させる。なお、この場合も、電子カルテ情報に含まれる各情報のうち、診療科の情報と患者の個人情報のみを取得するようにしてもよい。
(3-1) Acquisition of Electronic Medical Record Information Under the control of the electronic medical record information acquisition unit 111, the reservation management apparatus 10 first reads a list of patients whose reservation information is temporarily registered from the reservation information storage unit 123 in step S30. . In other words, a list of patients requiring hospital visits is read. Next, in step S31, a patient who is permitted to disclose the reservation information is selected from the patients included in the list based on the disclosure conditions included in the reservation information. In step S32, the electronic medical record information of the patient whose disclosure is permitted is acquired from the EMR server 20 via the network 50, and the acquired electronic medical record information is stored in the electronic medical record information storage unit 121 in association with the patient ID. Let it. In this case, among the information included in the electronic medical record information, only the information of the medical department and the personal information of the patient may be acquired.
 (3-2)開示制御情報の生成
 予約管理装置10は、次に開示制御情報生成部112の制御の下、ステップS33において、上記予約情報の開示を許諾している患者の各々について、その予約情報に含まれる属性情報の開示範囲を表す情報をもとに上記電子カルテ情報記憶部121から上記開示範囲に含まれる属性情報を読み出す。
(3-2) Generation of Disclosure Control Information Next, under the control of the disclosure control information generation unit 112, the reservation management device 10 sets the reservation for each of the patients whose disclosure of the reservation information is permitted in step S33. The attribute information included in the disclosure range is read from the electronic medical record information storage unit 121 based on the information indicating the disclosure range of the attribute information included in the information.
 開示制御情報生成部112は、次にステップS34において、上記各患者の属性情報を比較し、その比較結果に基づいて類似度合いが所定値以上の患者群を抽出して、これらの患者によるグループを構成する。例えば、開示制御情報生成部112は、先ず受診する診療科が同一でかつ性別が同一の患者群を抽出し、次にこれらの患者の中から年齢差が所定の範囲内、例えば年齢差5歳以内の複数の患者を抽出する。そして、この抽出された各患者によるグループを構成する。 Next, in step S34, the disclosure control information generation unit 112 compares the attribute information of each patient, extracts a group of patients whose similarity is equal to or greater than a predetermined value based on the comparison result, and identifies a group of these patients. Constitute. For example, the disclosure control information generation unit 112 first extracts a group of patients having the same medical department and the same gender, and then an age difference within a predetermined range from these patients, for example, an age difference of 5 years. Extract multiple patients within. Then, a group is formed by the extracted patients.
 なお、受診する診療科または性別が同一の患者群を一つのグループに含めてもよいし、年齢差が所定の範囲内の患者群を一つのグループに含めるようにしてもよい。また、通院履歴が所定の範囲内で類似する患者群を抽出してグループを構成してもよいし、症状の種類が同一または同一の症状を有する患者群を抽出してグループを構成するようにしてもよい。さらには、過去に同一グループに配置された患者を優先的に同一のグループに含むようにグループを構成してもよい。 Note that a group of patients having the same medical department or gender may be included in one group, or a group of patients whose age difference is within a predetermined range may be included in one group. Further, a group may be formed by extracting a group of patients having similar visit history within a predetermined range, or a group of patients may be formed by extracting a group of patients having the same or the same type of symptoms. You may. Further, the group may be configured so that patients who have been placed in the same group in the past are preferentially included in the same group.
 また、予約管理装置10が事前に各患者の通院希望日時を取得しておき、これらの通院希望日時を考慮して、例えば最大公約数的に通院希望日時が近い患者を選択し、選択した患者が同一グループに含まれるようにグループを構成してもよい。 In addition, the reservation management apparatus 10 obtains in advance the date and time of desired visit to each patient, and in consideration of the desired date and time of visit, selects a patient whose desired date and time is, for example, the greatest common denominator, and selects the selected patient. May be configured to be included in the same group.
 開示制御情報生成部112は、次にステップS35において、上記構成されたグループごとに、当該グループに所属する複数の患者の各々に対し共通の予約候補日時を設定する。なお、グループに所属する患者数が一単位の予約時間帯で診療可能な患者の上限数を超える場合には、上記グループを複数の小グループに分け、これらの小グループごとに予約候補日時を設定するようにしてもよい。その場合の患者の分け方は、属性の類似度に応じて分けてもよいが、単純に人数に応じて等分に分けてもよい。また、予約候補日時は一つに限らず複数設定するようにし、患者が複数の予約候補日時の中から希望する日時を選択できるようにしてもよい。 Next, in step S35, the disclosure control information generation unit 112 sets a common reservation candidate date and time for each of the plurality of patients belonging to the group configured as described above. If the number of patients belonging to a group exceeds the maximum number of patients that can be treated in one unit of appointment time slot, the above group is divided into a plurality of small groups, and the reservation candidate date and time are set for each of these small groups. You may make it. In this case, the patients may be divided according to the similarity of the attributes, or may be simply divided equally according to the number of persons. Further, the number of reservation appointment dates and times is not limited to one, and a plurality may be set so that the patient can select a desired date and time from the plurality of reservation candidate dates and times.
 開示制御情報生成部112は、最後にステップS36において、上記グループごとに、当該グループを構成する患者のリストと、当該患者ごとの属性情報の開示範囲と、上記各患者に対し共通に割り当てられた予約候補日時とを含む開示制御情報を生成し、開示制御情報記憶部122に記憶させる。 Finally, in step S36, the disclosure control information generation unit 112 assigns a list of patients constituting the group, a disclosure range of attribute information for each patient, and a common assignment to each patient in each of the groups. The disclosure control information including the reservation candidate date and time is generated and stored in the disclosure control information storage unit 122.
 開示制御情報生成部112は、以上述べたステップS34~ステップS36による開示制御情報の生成処理を各グループに対しそれぞれ実行する。そして、すべてのグループに対する開示制御情報の生成が終了したことをステップS37で確認すると、開示制御情報の生成を終了する。 (4) The disclosure control information generation unit 112 executes the above-described disclosure control information generation processing in steps S34 to S36 for each group. Then, when it is confirmed in step S37 that the generation of the disclosure control information for all the groups has been completed, the generation of the disclosure control information is completed.
 (3-3)予約情報の開示制御
 上記開示制御情報の生成が終了すると、予約管理装置10は開示制御部113の制御の下、以下のように予約情報の開示制御を実行する。すなわち、開示制御部113は、先ずステップS38において、上記開示制御情報記憶部122からグループごとに開示制御情報を読み出す。そして、当該開示制御情報に従い、グループに所属する各患者のリストと患者ごとの属性情報と共通の予約候補日時を含む通知情報を、当該グループに所属する各患者のユーザ端末31~3nに向け通信インタフェースユニット13から同報送信する。
(3-3) Disclosure Control of Reservation Information When the generation of the disclosure control information ends, the reservation management device 10 executes the disclosure control of the reservation information as described below under the control of the disclosure control unit 113. That is, the disclosure control unit 113 first reads the disclosure control information for each group from the disclosure control information storage unit 122 in step S38. Then, according to the disclosure control information, notification information including a list of each patient belonging to the group, attribute information for each patient, and a common reservation candidate date and time is transmitted to the user terminals 31 to 3n of each patient belonging to the group. The broadcast is transmitted from the interface unit 13.
 以上述べた各グループの通知情報の送信処理は、全グループに対する通知情報の送信が終了したことがステップS39で確認されるまで、繰り返し実行される。 The transmission processing of the notification information of each group described above is repeatedly executed until it is confirmed in step S39 that the transmission of the notification information to all the groups is completed.
 上記予約管理装置10から送信された通知情報は各ユーザ端末31~3nでそれぞれ受信され、例えば表示器に表示される。上記通知情報により患者は、自身に割り当てられた予約候補日時を認識すると共に、同一時間帯に予約候補日時が設定された他の患者のリストと属性情報を確認することができる。ここで、同一グループに所属する各患者は属性情報が相互に一致または類似する患者である。このため、上記受信された通知情報の患者リストを見ることで、知り合いの患者や、まだ面識はなくても自身と属性が共通または類似する患者を見つける確立は高く、これにより通院に対する患者の意欲の維持、向上が期待できる。 The notification information transmitted from the reservation management device 10 is received by each of the user terminals 31 to 3n, and is displayed on, for example, a display. Based on the notification information, the patient can recognize the reservation candidate date and time assigned to the patient and can confirm the list and attribute information of other patients for whom the reservation candidate date and time are set in the same time zone. Here, each patient belonging to the same group is a patient whose attribute information matches or is similar to each other. Therefore, by looking at the patient list of the received notification information, it is highly probable that a patient who is acquainted or who does not yet have acquaintance but has common or similar attributes to himself / herself is highly likely to be found. Maintenance and improvement can be expected.
 また患者は、上記通知情報により通知された予約候補日時について都合が悪ければ、例えば、自身のユーザ端末31~3nから予約管理装置10に対しアクセスして予約日時の変更要求を行う。予約管理装置10は、予約情報管理部114の制御の下、上記変更要求に応じて該当する患者の予約情報を変更し、予約情報記憶部123に記憶された予約情報を更新する。上記予約候補日時の変更は、例えば患者が電話により医療スタッフに口頭で連絡し、これを受けて医療スタッフが医師端末40から予約管理装置10に対し該当する患者の予約情報を更新する処理を行うことでも実現できる。 If the reservation candidate date and time notified by the notification information is not convenient, the patient accesses the reservation management device 10 from his / her own user terminals 31 to 3n and issues a request to change the reservation date and time. Under the control of the reservation information management unit 114, the reservation management device 10 changes the reservation information of the corresponding patient in response to the change request, and updates the reservation information stored in the reservation information storage unit 123. The change of the reservation candidate date and time, for example, the patient verbally contacts the medical staff by telephone, and in response to this, the medical staff performs a process of updating the reservation information of the corresponding patient from the doctor terminal 40 to the reservation management apparatus 10. It can also be realized.
 なお、予約情報管理部114は、上記通知情報の送信後、予め設定された時間以内に上記変更要求を受信しなかった場合には、上記通知情報により通知された予約候補日時について患者が了承したものと見なして、予約候補日時を予約日時として確定する。 In addition, when the reservation information management unit 114 does not receive the change request within a preset time after transmitting the notification information, the patient approves the reservation candidate date and time notified by the notification information. The reservation candidate date and time are determined as the reservation date and time.
 (効果)
 (1)個別開示モードが設定された場合、予約管理装置10は、自身の予約情報の開示を許諾している患者の各々について、予約情報に含まれる開示条件をもとに開示相手先の患者を表す情報と属性情報の開示範囲を含む開示制御情報を生成する。そして、患者から他の患者の予約情報の開示要求を受信した場合に、この開示要求により指定される開示希望日時に予約されているすべての患者を選択し、当該各患者の開示制御情報に基づいて、開示要求をした患者を開示相手先として許諾している各患者を選択すると共に開示範囲に含まれる属性情報を選択し、上記選択された各患者の予約情報と属性情報とを含む開示情報を、開示要求をした患者のユーザ端末に向け送信するようにしている。
(effect)
(1) When the individual disclosure mode is set, the reservation management apparatus 10 determines, for each of the patients who have permitted disclosure of their own reservation information, the patient of the disclosure partner based on the disclosure conditions included in the reservation information. , And disclosure control information including the disclosure range of the attribute information. Then, when a request for disclosure of reservation information of another patient is received from a patient, all the patients reserved at the desired disclosure date and time specified by the disclosure request are selected, and based on the disclosure control information of each of the patients. The disclosure information including the reservation information and the attribute information of each of the selected patients, selecting each patient who permits the disclosure requesting patient as a disclosure destination and selecting attribute information included in the disclosure range. Is transmitted to the user terminal of the patient who has made the disclosure request.
 したがって、患者は、開示希望日時に予約された他の患者の予約情報のリストを当該患者の属性情報と共に確認することが可能となる。そして、例えば患者の通院予約日時と同一の時間帯に、知り合いの患者や、まだ面識はないが受診する診療科が同じで性別や年齢が近い患者が見つかれば、例えば通院に対し消極的だった患者の気分を通院に向かわせることが可能となる。また、患者自身の通院予約日時が上記発見した知り合いの患者等の通院予約日時と異なる場合でも、例えば患者自身の通院予約日時を上記知り合いの患者等と同じ日時になるように変更を要求することも可能となる。すなわち、一実施形態によれば、患者の通院予約情報を新たなコミュニティ形成ツールとして利用できるようになり、通院に対する患者の意欲の維持、向上が期待できる。 Therefore, the patient can check a list of reservation information of another patient reserved at the desired date and time of disclosure together with attribute information of the patient. For example, in the same time zone as the patient's appointment date and time, if you find a patient you know or a patient who has no acquaintance but has the same medical department but a similar gender or age, you were reluctant to go to the hospital, for example. The patient's mood can be sent to the hospital. Also, even when the patient's own visit reservation date and time is different from the above-discovered visit visit date and time of the acquaintance's patient, for example, a request to change the patient's visit visit date and time to the same date and time as the above-mentioned acquaintance patient etc Is also possible. That is, according to one embodiment, the patient's outpatient reservation information can be used as a new community formation tool, and it is expected that the patient's willingness to visit the hospital will be improved.
 また、開示条件の一つとして開示相手先の範囲を設定することで、開示相手先の範囲を限定することができ、これにより自身の予約情報が無制限に開示されないようにすることができる。例えば、開示相手先を通院中の患者に限定することで、通院期間が終了した患者から開示要求が送信されても通院中の他の患者の予約情報が開示されないようにすることができる。また、開示条件の一つとして患者の属性情報の開示範囲を設定しているので、患者が開示を望まない属性については開示されないようにすることができる。 Further, by setting the range of the disclosure partner as one of the disclosure conditions, the range of the disclosure partner can be limited, thereby preventing the reservation information of the user from being disclosed indefinitely. For example, by limiting the disclosure destination to patients who are visiting the hospital, it is possible to prevent the reservation information of other patients who are visiting the hospital from being disclosed even if a disclosure request is transmitted from a patient whose visit period has ended. Further, since the disclosure range of the attribute information of the patient is set as one of the disclosure conditions, it is possible to prevent the disclosure of the attribute that the patient does not want to disclose.
 (2)グループ開示モードが設定された場合、予約管理装置10は、予約情報の開示を許諾している患者の電子カルテ情報をもとに、属性情報が一致または類似度合いが所定範囲内の患者を抽出してこれらの患者によるグループを構成する。そして、グループごとに共通の予約候補日時を設定し、上記グループごとに当該グループを構成する患者のリストと属性情報の開示範囲と予約候補日時を含む開示制御情報を生成する。次に、上記開示制御情報に基づいて、グループごとに当該グループに所属する各患者のユーザ端末31~3nに対し、上記グループを構成する患者のリスト、属性情報および予約候補日時を含む通知情報を同報送信するようにしている。 (2) When the group disclosure mode is set, the reservation management apparatus 10 determines whether the attribute information matches or the degree of similarity falls within a predetermined range based on the electronic medical record information of the patient to whom the disclosure of the reservation information is permitted. To form a group of these patients. Then, a common reservation candidate date and time is set for each group, and disclosure control information including a list of patients constituting the group, a disclosure range of attribute information, and a reservation candidate date and time is generated for each group. Next, based on the disclosure control information, for each group, notification information including a list of patients constituting the group, attribute information, and appointment candidate date and time is sent to the user terminals 31 to 3n of the patients belonging to the group. Broadcast transmission is used.
 従って、通院予約が必要な複数の患者のうちその属性情報が一致または類似する患者がグループ化され、グループごとに当該グループに属する各患者に対し共通の予約候補日時が設定され、通知される。このため、属性情報が一致または類似する複数の患者が共通の日時に通院することが可能となり、これにより患者は知り合いの他の患者や、面識はなくても属性情報、例えば受診する診療科、症状、性別または年齢等が一致または類似する他の患者と出会う確率が高くなる。この結果、単に通院予約時刻のみを通知する場合に比べ、患者に対し通院に対する楽しみを与えることができ、これにより通院に対する患者の意欲の向上、維持が期待できる。 Therefore, among a plurality of patients who need to go to a hospital, patients whose attribute information is the same or similar are grouped, and a common reservation candidate date and time is set for each patient belonging to the group and notified. For this reason, it is possible for a plurality of patients with the same or similar attribute information to go to the hospital at a common date and time, thereby allowing the patient to know other patients or attribute information without any acquaintance, for example, a medical department to be consulted, The likelihood of encountering other patients with similar or similar symptoms, gender, or age is increased. As a result, it is possible to provide the patient with pleasure in visiting the hospital, as compared with a case where only the visit reservation time is simply notified, thereby improving and maintaining the patient's willingness to visit the hospital.
 一例を挙げると、仲間登録をした患者同士や、既往症や年齢などが似ている患者同士が同じ時間帯に通院予約をすることが可能になると、複数の患者によるコミュニティを形成することが可能となる。その結果、医療機関に行きたがらない人にとって、通院したときに気の合う患者に会えることがインセンティブとなり、通院が苦痛でなくなり治療や処置を継続して行えることが期待できる。 For example, if patients who have been registered as peers or patients with similar illnesses and ages can make an appointment at the same time, a community of multiple patients can be formed. Become. As a result, it is expected that those who do not want to go to a medical institution will be able to meet a patient who is fit when they go to the hospital, and will be able to continue treatment and treatment without pain.
 [変形例]
 (1)前記実施形態では、一つの医療機関を受診している複数の患者を対象にグループ化し、当該グループに属する各患者に対し共通の予約候補日時を通知する場合を例にとって説明した。しかしこれに限るものではなく、例えば所定の地域内に存在する複数の医療機関のいずれかを受診している複数の患者を対象にグループ化処理を行い、当該グループに属する各患者に対し共通の予約候補日時と通院先となる共通の医療機関を表す情報を通知するようにしてもよい。
[Modification]
(1) In the above-described embodiment, an example has been described in which a plurality of patients who are attending one medical institution are grouped, and a common reservation candidate date and time is notified to each patient belonging to the group. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, a grouping process is performed on a plurality of patients who are consulting any of a plurality of medical institutions existing in a predetermined area, and a common process is performed for each patient belonging to the group. Information indicating a reservation candidate date and time and a common medical institution serving as a hospital visit may be notified.
 この構成は例えば以下のように実現される。すなわち、地域内の複数の医療機関のいずれかに通院している複数の患者の電子カルテ情報を、例えばその地域内の複数の医療機関で共有されるように設けられている電子健康記録(Electronic Health Records:EHR)サーバから取得し、取得された電子カルテ情報をもとに属性情報が一致または類似する患者を抽出してグループを構成する。そして、上記グループに属する複数の患者に対し共通の予約候補日時を設定する。またそれと共に、上記EHRサーバから取得された電子カルテ情報に含まれる各患者の住所と地域内の各医療機関の住所とに基づいて通院先として好適な医療機関を選択する。そして、上記設定された共通の予約候補日時および通院先の医療機関を表す情報を含む開示制御情報を生成し、この開示制御情報に従い、上記グループに属する各患者が所持するユーザ端末に対し、上記グループに属する患者のリスト、共通の予約候補日時および通院先の医療機関を表す情報を同報送信する。 構成 This configuration is realized, for example, as follows. In other words, electronic medical record information of a plurality of patients who visit any of a plurality of medical institutions in a region can be stored in, for example, an electronic health record (Electronic Record) provided to be shared by a plurality of medical institutions in the region. (Health Records: EHR) A patient is acquired from the electronic medical record information, and a patient whose attribute information matches or is similar is extracted based on the acquired electronic medical record information to form a group. Then, a common reservation candidate date and time is set for a plurality of patients belonging to the group. At the same time, a medical institution suitable for a hospital visit is selected based on the address of each patient and the address of each medical institution in the area included in the electronic medical record information acquired from the EHR server. Then, it generates disclosure control information including the set common reservation candidate date and time and information indicating the medical institution of the hospital destination, and according to this disclosure control information, to the user terminal possessed by each patient belonging to the group, A list of patients belonging to the group, a common reservation candidate date and time, and information indicating the medical institution at the hospital are broadcast.
 このようにすると、医療機関単位ではなく、地域単位で属性等が類似する複数の患者がグループ化され、このグループに属する各患者に対し共通の予約日時と共通の通院先医療機関が指定される。従って、患者には、通院という機会を利用して、症状や治療経過、年齢等が類似するもの同士で出会う機会が提供されることになり、患者は通院に対するモチベーションを維持もしくは高めることが可能となる。すなわち、この例についても、患者が継続して通院することを支援可能な予約管理装置および予約管理方法を提供することが可能である。 In this manner, a plurality of patients having similar attributes and the like are grouped not in units of medical institutions but in units of regions, and a common appointment date and a common medical institution are designated for each patient belonging to this group. . Therefore, the patient will be provided with an opportunity to visit patients with similar symptoms, treatment courses, ages, etc., using the opportunity to visit the hospital, and the patient will be able to maintain or increase motivation to visit the hospital. Become. That is, also in this example, it is possible to provide a reservation management device and a reservation management method capable of supporting a patient to go to the hospital continuously.
