A rule-based disease self-inspection and hospital registration recommendation system

As Chinese government is exploring to establish a unified hospital registration system to solve the general problem of waiting in a long queue to make a hospital registration, correct registration is an efficient way to avoid wasting medical resources and the prerequisite of getting timely inspection and treatment. The purpose of this research is to build a disease self-inspection and hospital registration recommendation system to help people do the disease self-inspection and make an online registration fast. Firstly, the system assists people to make a rough disease self-inspection by checking different symptoms of body parts. Secondly, people are recommended to corresponding hospital registration departments to make an online registration. During the above procedures, some factors are seriously considered, such as the disease and allergy history of the user, the department hierarchy in hospitals of different levels in China, current situation of medical resources and so on, which may affect the results of the disease self-inspection and registration recommendation greatly. The system works well as an information service on the regional medical information sharing and collaborative platform, which is based on cloud computing and set up by our team. As a result, it can be monitored, controlled and further improved.
