Abstract
Healthcare is universally regarded as one of the basic needs of human being. Access to healthcare facilities is the most challenging task for developing countries like Bangladesh due to overpopulation, poor infrastructure, corruption, political instability and a slow implementation of economic reforms. The recent development of Electronic Health Record(EHR) system has enormous effect on health informatics. As far we are conscious, there is no central EHR system in Bangladesh. In this paper, we present a typical EHR system along with phenotypic term binding to predict human disease and improve healthcare facilities to the doorsteps all over the country. We evaluate our method by considering different criteria and retrieve a convincing result that shows the effectiveness of our system.
