The shared information with the electronic medical record includes information shared with the remote support software 25 or information linked to the remote support software 25 among various medical information managed by the medical work support software 11. The chat log includes a log of chat messages exchanged between the implementer who provides health guidance and medical treatment and the subject. The behavioral goals are goals for actions (health improvement activities) necessary for the health management of the subject, and include, for example, losing weight by 3 kg or reducing waist circumference by 5 cm. The instruction contents include advice on health improvement activities. The guidance evaluation includes the implementer's evaluation of the results of the subject's health improvement activities and the subject's self-evaluation. Although not shown, it can also include a log (audio log) of a video call between the implementer who provides health guidance or medical treatment and the subject, and the subject's unique information (e.g., name, sex, date of birth, address, phone number, etc.).

Figure 4 is a block diagram showing an example of the configuration of a medical information linkage device 50. The medical information linkage device 50 includes a control unit 51, a communication unit 52, an interface unit 53, an operation unit 54, a linkage processing unit 55, a memory unit 56, a display screen 57, a display unit 58, a video call processing unit 59, a chat processing unit 60, and an AI engine unit 61.

The AI engine unit 61 may be equipped with hardware such as a CPU (e.g., a multi-processor having multiple processor cores), GPUs (Graphics Processing Units), DSPs (Digital Signal Processors), and FPGAs (Field-Programmable Gate Arrays), and may be configured with a multi-layer neural network (deep learning), but other machine learning may also be used. The AI engine unit 61 may be configured as a device separate from the medical information linkage device 50.

The link processing unit 55 realizes the link function between the medical work support software 11 and the remote support software 25. Details of the link processing unit 55 will be described later.

The subject device 30 has a display screen 31 and is configured, for example, as a smartphone, tablet, notebook personal computer, etc.

Next, we will explain the operation of the medical information linkage device 50.

The collaboration processing unit 55 functions as an identification unit and identifies the required shared information from among the medical information managed by multiple types of medical service support software 11 operating on multiple medical service devices 10.

The collaboration processing unit 55 functions as an output unit and outputs the identified shared information to the remote support software 25 that runs on the server 20 and remotely supports the provision of health guidance or medical treatment to the subject.

With the above-mentioned configuration, for example, if there is shared information among the medical information in the medical work support software 11 that is desirable to share between the subject of health guidance or medical treatment and the practitioner who carries out the health guidance or medical treatment, the shared information can be provided to the subject by outputting the shared information to the remote support software 25, thereby raising the subject's awareness of health and improving the subject's participation in health guidance and medical treatment. Specific examples are described below.

The collaboration processing unit 55 identifies the required subject and the subject information of the subject from among the patients managed by the medical work support software 11. The subject information is unique information of the subject that is required when providing remote support to the subject using the remote support software 25, and includes, for example, the subject ID, name, sex, date of birth, address, and telephone number.

Figure 5 is a schematic diagram showing an example of a list display of patients managed by the medical service support software 11. By accessing the medical service support software 11 by the medical information linkage device 50, the patient information list 110 shown in Figure 5 can be displayed on the display screen 57. Patient information includes ID, name, date of birth, sex, address, contact information (including emergency contact information), height, weight, presence or absence of allergies, smoking status, drinking status, medical history, etc. The sort icon 111 accepts an operation to extract patients based on required conditions from all patients managed by electronic medical records, for example, in order to display a list of patient information.

The bulk selection icon 112 accepts an operation to select all the displayed patients, and the partial selection icon 113 accepts an operation to select some of all the displayed patients. The cancel icon 114 is an icon for canceling an operation. The upload icon 115 accepts an operation to upload patient information of the selected patient to the remote assistance software 25 via the medical information linkage device 50.

Figure 6 is a schematic diagram showing an example of a subject registration screen 240. The subject registration screen 240 is displayed on the display screen 57 of the medical information linkage device 50 by operating the upload icon 115 in Figure 5. The edit icon 241 allows the subject information displayed on the subject registration screen 240 to be changed or the subject to be deleted. This makes it possible to identify a patient displayed in the patient information list as the required subject.

By operating the registration icon 242, the subject information can be registered in the subject DB 24. That is, the linkage processing unit 55 outputs the identified subject information to be registered in the remote assistance software 25 (more specifically, in the subject DB 24). The subject information for multiple subjects can be registered all at once, or can be registered individually as needed. This simplifies the registration work (preparation work) for remotely providing health guidance and medical treatment to patients who have undergone a health checkup or medical treatment.

The link processing unit 55 functions as a candidate subject extraction unit and can extract candidate subjects based on health data or medical interview data contained in the medical information managed by the medical work support software 11.

Figure 7 is a schematic diagram showing an example of the subject candidate extraction screen 120. The subject candidate extraction screen 120 can be displayed on the display screen 57 by accessing the medical service support software 11 from the medical information linkage device 50. Subject candidates can be extracted by inputting or selecting required numerical values or characters in condition columns such as the gender column 121, age column 122, weight column 123, waist circumference column 124, blood glucose column 125, triglyceride column 126, HDL cholesterol column 127, blood pressure column 128, and smoking history column 129. Note that the condition columns shown in Figure 7 are examples and are not limited to these. Other health data and interview data can be used as extraction conditions. The cancel icon 130 accepts a cancel operation. The extraction icon 131 accepts the execution of the extraction process.

The collaboration processing unit 55 functions as a subject selection unit and can select the required subjects from the extracted subject candidates.

Figure 8 is a schematic diagram showing an example of a subject selection screen 140. The subject selection screen 140 is displayed on the display screen 57 by operating the extraction icon 131 in Figure 7. As shown in Figure 8, the subject selection screen 140 displays the subject ID, name, age, sex, medical history, interview information, the number of extraction conditions met, and a selection icon 144. The number of extraction conditions met indicates how many extraction conditions each extracted subject candidate satisfied when extracting the subject candidate. The number of extraction conditions met may be represented by the length of a horizontal bar graph 143 as shown in Figure 8, or may be represented by a number. The more extraction conditions met, the more recommended the selection of subjects is, so that information can be provided to the person who provides health guidance or medical treatment when selecting subjects. The person who provides health guidance or medical treatment can select a subject by operating the selection icon 144, referring to the medical history, interview information, and the number of extraction conditions met.

When deciding which patients to select as subjects from among those whose medical information is in electronic medical records, etc., it is time-consuming to make the selection while referring to the medical information of each patient. Therefore, the subject selection process can be made easier by first narrowing down (extracting) candidate subjects based on health data or interview data, and then selecting subjects from the narrowed-down list of candidate subjects.

In addition, all of the candidate subjects extracted by the collaboration processing unit 55 may be selected as the subjects.

The collaboration processing unit 55 can select the required subject from among the patients managed by the medical service support software 11 and conduct a video call with the subject device 30 of the selected subject via the remote support software 25.

Figure 9 is a schematic diagram showing an example of a video call start screen. The video call start screen shown in Figure 9 is displayed on the display screen 57 by operating the video call icon 141 in Figure 8. The video call start screen has, for example, a subject information screen 251 and a medical information screen 252. The subject information screen 251 displays the subject's name, sex, age, date of birth, the scheduled date and time of the video call, the subject's telephone number and email address, etc. The medical information screen 252 can display the subject's medical information (for example, health check results, medical treatment results, health data, interview data, etc.). The provider of health guidance or medical treatment can make a video call with the subject by operating the call icon 253.

As mentioned above, designated patients can be selected as subjects from medical information such as electronic medical records. This makes it possible to immediately provide remote health guidance and medical treatment to subjects (patients) who are to receive remote health guidance and medical treatment based on the contents of their health checkup results and medical treatment results, while communicating remotely.

The collaboration processing unit 55 can select the required subject from among the patients managed by the medical work support software 11 and chat with the subject device 30 of the selected subject via the remote support software 25.

The link processing unit 55 can also output the behavioral goals for the subject to the subject's subject device 30 via the remote assistance software 25. This allows the subject to understand the behavioral goals necessary for his or her own health management, and can increase awareness of health as well as motivation to prevent illness and the aggravation of illness.

Figure 10 is a schematic diagram showing an example of a chat start screen. The chat start screen shown in Figure 10 is displayed on the display screen 57 by operating the chat icon 142 in Figure 8. The chat start screen has, for example, a subject information screen 161, a behavioral goal column 162, a training period column 163, a training content column 164, and a training evaluation column 165. The subject information screen 161 displays the subject's name, sex, age, date of birth, telephone number, and email address, etc.

The behavioral goal column 162 displays the goal for the behavior (health improvement activity) required for the health management of the subject, for example, to lose weight by 2 kg and reduce waist circumference by 2 cm. The guidance period column 163 displays the date when guidance starts and the date when it ends. The guidance period can be, for example, three months or more. The guidance content column 164 displays advice on health improvement activities. The guidance evaluation column 165 displays the content of the implementer's evaluation of the results of the subject's health improvement activities and the date of the evaluation. Note that for subjects receiving health guidance for the first time, the guidance evaluation column 165 is left blank. The implementer of health guidance or medical treatment can chat with the subject by operating the send icon 166.

As mentioned above, designated patients can be selected as subjects from medical information such as electronic medical records. This makes it possible to provide health guidance and medical treatment remotely via chat to subjects (patients) who are desired to receive remote health guidance and medical treatment based on the contents of their health checkup results and medical treatment results.

Figure 11 is a schematic diagram showing an example of extraction of candidate guidance contents by the AI engine unit 61. The collaboration processing unit 55 acquires the subject's health data or medical interview data contained in the medical information, and outputs it to the AI engine unit 61. The collaboration processing unit 55 also functions as a chat message acquisition unit, and acquires chat messages exchanged between the subject's subject device 30 and the subject via the remote assistance software 25.

The AI engine unit 61 has a function as a candidate instruction content extraction unit, and extracts candidate instruction content based on at least one of the health data, the medical interview data, and the chat message. The display unit 58 can display the candidate instruction content output by the AI engine unit 61 on the display screen 57. The health guidance provider selects a candidate instruction content that is judged to be suitable for the subject from the displayed candidate instruction content and inputs it into the chat screen, so that the input instruction content is displayed on the display screen 31 of the subject device 30. In other words, the collaboration processing unit 55 can select the required instruction content from the extracted candidate instruction content, and output the selected instruction content to the subject device 30 of the subject via the remote assistance software 25. Note that the extraction of candidate instruction content is not limited to the processing by the AI engine unit 61, and a knowledge database or the like may be used.

FIG. 12 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of candidate instruction contents. The candidate instruction contents are candidates for health guidance, and can be, for example, "Perform light exercise for about 30 minutes about three times a week," "Eat a diet low in salt," "Eat a diet low in carbohydrates," "Increase the number of steps per day by 2,000," "Reduce daily calorie intake by 300 kcal," "Make an effort to have breakfast," and "Stop snacking before bed." Note that the candidate instruction contents are not limited to the example in FIG. 12.

By narrowing down (extracting) candidate guidance contents based on the health data or medical interview data and selecting the guidance contents from the narrowed down candidate guidance contents, it is possible to select appropriate guidance contents based on the subject's health data or medical interview data and provide health guidance to the subject. In addition, by analyzing the content and goals of the subject's health improvement activities contained in chat messages, as well as the subject's impressions and awareness, it is possible to extract candidate guidance contents according to the subject's current situation, and appropriate guidance contents can be selected to provide health guidance to the subject.

Figure 13 is a schematic diagram showing an example of a chat screen displayed on the display screen 57 of the medical information linkage device 50. Among the subjects displayed in the subject list, the name of the subject chatting is displayed in an identifiable display mode (enclosed in a frame in the example of Figure 13). The chat screen 171 displays messages exchanged between instructor A and the subject in chronological order. It also displays upload information 171a uploaded by the subject. Upload information 171a is image data or text data, and includes, for example, images taken by the subject and data measured with a measuring device such as a blood pressure monitor.

The health data screen 172 displays the subject's gender, age, height, weight data 172a, and waist circumference data 172b. The weight data 172a is a change in weight measured daily by the subject based on the instruction content. The waist circumference data 172b is a change in waist circumference measured daily by the subject based on the instruction content. The subject can input the measured weight, waist circumference, etc. into the subject device 30. Note that the chat screen 171 and the health data screen 172 are merely examples and are not limited to the example in FIG. 13.

The link processing unit 55 can identify medical images of the required subject from the medical information managed by the medical work support software 11.

Figure 14 is a schematic diagram showing an example of a display of an electronic medical record managed by the medical service support software 11. The electronic medical record shown in Figure 14 is displayed on the display screen 57 by the medical information linkage device 50 accessing the medical service support software 11. As shown in Figure 14, the electronic medical record displays a patient information column 150, a history information column 151, a marker 152 indicating that the required date has been selected, a medical information column 153 for the selected date, a medical image 154 arranged in the medical information column 153, a snapshot icon 155, and the like. The medical image 154 may be an image taken during an examination or the like (e.g., an X-ray image, an ultrasound image, an endoscopic image, an electrocardiogram, etc.), or may be a schematic, etc.

The link processing unit 55 has a function as a copying unit, and can copy the medical image 154 of the subject displayed in the electronic medical record. Specifically, by selecting the medical image 154 and operating the snapshot icon 155, the link processing unit 55 can identify the medical image 154 and obtain a copy of the medical image 154.

Figure 15 is a schematic diagram showing an example of a specific screen 181 on which a medical image copied from an electronic medical record is displayed. The specific screen 181 shown in Figure 15 can be displayed on the display screen 57 by the display unit 58 by operating the snapshot icon 155 in Figure 14. The specific screen 181 displays the subject's name, date of treatment, an image field 182, a comment input field 183, a send icon 184, etc. The image field 182 displays the medical image copied from the electronic medical record. In the comment input field 183, for example, a desired comment can be entered when a doctor provides the subject with supplementary information about the medical image.

The link processing unit 55 can output the identified medical images (including comments, if any) to the subject's subject device 30 via the remote assistance software 25. This makes it possible to provide the subject with medical images that correspond to the subject's health condition (e.g., health promotion/disease prevention, mild illness, prevention of aggravation, etc.), thereby increasing the subject's interest in health guidance and medical treatment. In addition, the medical images can be provided to the subject simply by displaying the medical images in the electronic medical record and performing simple operations.

The collaboration processing unit 55 has a function as a dialogue history acquisition unit, and can acquire the dialogue history between the subject and the collaboration processing unit 55 recorded by the remote assistance software 25. The dialogue history includes, for example, chat logs, video call logs (audio, etc.), the subject's health data, etc.

FIG. 16 is a schematic diagram showing an example of a dialogue history download screen 191. The dialogue history download screen 191 can be displayed on the display screen 57 by the display unit 58. The dialogue history download screen 191 displays a subject selection field 192 in which a desired subject can be selected from the subjects listed, a subject input field 193 in which a desired subject can be specified by inputting a name or the like, a first specification field 194 in which a desired dialogue history is specified by the start and end of a period, a second specification field 195 in which a desired dialogue history is specified by the number of months from the present to the past, a decision icon 196 for deciding an operation, a cancel icon 197 for cancelling an operation, a download icon 198 for starting downloading of the dialogue history, and the like. The cooperation processing unit 55 can obtain the specified dialogue history by operating the download icon 198.

The link processing unit 55 has a function as an interaction history recording control unit, and can record the acquired interaction history in association with the subject's medical information managed by the medical work support software 11. This allows the content of health guidance and medical treatment carried out remotely to be integrated with the patient's medical information (e.g., electronic medical record), making it possible to manage data related to the subject's health in a centralized manner.

The AI engine unit 61 has a function as a summary generation unit, and can generate a summary of the dialogue history acquired by the collaboration processing unit 55. In addition to the AI engine unit 61, a method such as language analysis processing can be used to generate the summary.

The AI engine unit 61 functions as a recommendation information generation unit and can generate recommendation information that recommends changes to the target person's behavioral goals based on the dialogue history or a summary of the dialogue history.

Fig. 17 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of a summary of a dialogue history and recommended information. As shown in Fig. 17, the summary may be, for example, No. 1, "Lack of exercise improved, but no improvement in diet was observed, so both weight and waist circumference achieved 50% of the target," No. 2, "Lack of exercise improved, and no improvement in diet was observed, so both weight and waist circumference increased from the initial values," and No. 3, "Due to improvement in diet, both weight and waist circumference achieved 90% of the target." Note that the content of the summary is not limited to the example in Fig. 17.

The recommendation information may also include information that recommends strengthening, maintaining, or relaxing the behavioral goal. For example, the recommendation information may be "Continue the instruction for another three months" for No. 1, "Strengthen the instruction content" for No. 2, and "Loosen the instruction content and continue for another month" for No. 3. The recommendation information is not limited to the example in FIG. 17.

As described above, the gist of the health guidance and medical treatment provided remotely can be integrated into the patient's medical information (e.g., electronic medical record), making it possible to centrally manage the subject's health data.

In addition, recommended information on how to modify the behavioral goals for the subject can be integrated into the patient's medical information (e.g., electronic medical record), making it possible to manage all of the subject's health data in one place.

The linking processor 55 can acquire health data input by the subject on the subject device 30 via the remote assistance software 25. The health data input by the subject includes, for example, data that can be measured using a measuring device or the like that can be used by the subject at a location other than a hospital or clinic, such as the subject's home or workplace (e.g., blood pressure, pulse rate, pulse pressure, weight, waist circumference, body fat percentage, internal fat, muscle mass, water content, BMI, blood sugar level, number of steps, etc.).

The link processing unit 55 functions as a health data recording control unit, and can record the acquired health data in association with the subject's medical information managed by the medical work support software 11.

This allows health data measured by the subject themselves through remote health guidance and medical treatment to be integrated into the patient's medical information (e.g., electronic medical records), making it possible to manage all of the subject's health data in one place.

The linkage processing unit 55 has a function as a behavioral goal updating unit, and can update the behavioral goals for the subject based on the acquired health data. Based on the acquired health data, if the subject's health condition shows no improvement or is rather showing a tendency to worsen, the behavioral goals can be updated to be stronger. Also, based on the acquired health data, if the subject's health condition is improving smoothly as targeted, the behavioral goals can be maintained. Also, based on the acquired health data, if the subject's health condition has reached the initial goal and is improving, the behavioral goals can be updated to be more relaxed. This makes it possible to provide appropriate health guidance in accordance with the progress of the subject's health data, etc.

The collaboration processing unit 55 has a function as an implementation plan generation unit, and can generate an implementation plan for a video call or chat to be made between the subject and the subject's subject device 30 via the remote assistance software 25 based on the acquired health data. The implementation plan includes, for example, whether to make a video call and chat or only chat, when to make the video call or chat, how frequently to make the video call or chat, etc.

The display unit 58 can display the implementation plan generated by the collaboration processing unit 55 on the display screen 57.

Figure 18 is a schematic diagram showing a first example of an implementation plan screen 200 on which a video call or chat implementation plan is displayed. In the example of Figure 18, the weight and waist circumference trends of Mr. XX and Mr. △△, selected from a list of subjects, are displayed. In the figure, the horizontal axis indicates the guidance period, and the vertical axis indicates the degree of achievement of the target values for weight and waist circumference. A value of "0" indicates that the target is met, a value of "-1" indicates that the target value is below the target value (weight or waist circumference has not decreased as targeted), and a value of "-2" indicates that the target value is significantly below the target value (weight or waist circumference has not decreased or has increased). The parts of the weight and waist circumference graphs shown by solid lines represent actual measurements, and the parts shown by dashed lines represent predicted values (projected future trends). The period shown by dashed lines on the weight and waist circumference graphs represents the remaining period of the guidance period.

If Mr. XX's waist circumference is approximately on target (slightly below the value "0"), no additional guidance can be provided. Also, if Mr. XX's waist circumference is below the target value (approaching the value "1"), three chat interventions (guidance via chat) can be provided during the remaining period. Also, if Mr. XX's waist circumference is significantly below the target value (exceeding the value "1" and approaching the value "2"), three chat interventions (guidance via chat) and one interview intervention (guidance via video call) can be provided during the remaining period. Also, if Mr. △△'s weight is significantly below the target value (exceeding the value "1" and approaching the value "2"), taking into account that the remaining period is longer than Mr. XX's, three chat interventions (guidance via chat) can be provided during the remaining period.

As described above, if the subject's health condition does not improve or tends to worsen based on the acquired health data, it is desirable to provide health guidance and medical treatment through dialogue via video call, so an implementation plan can be generated and displayed to provide video calls and chats relatively frequently. Also, if the subject's health condition is gradually improving based on the acquired health data but has not reached the initial goal, an implementation plan can be generated and displayed to provide health guidance via chat on a regular basis. Also, if the subject's health condition has reached the initial goal and is improving based on the acquired health data, an implementation plan can be generated and displayed to not provide additional guidance via video calls and chat. This allows the practitioner who provides health guidance and medical treatment to provide appropriate health guidance and medical treatment according to the progress of the subject's health data, etc.

19 is a schematic diagram showing a second example of an implementation plan screen 210 on which a video call or chat implementation plan is displayed. In FIG. 19, the implementation plan screen 210 displays the achievement prediction for each subject, a start button, the remaining period of the instruction period (remaining period), and the timing of the video call or chat intervention. The achievement prediction is expressed as a rank, for example, A, B, C, D, and indicates that the achievement level is worse in the order of A, B, C, and D. The start button displays a call icon 211 for making a video call and a chat icon 212 for making a chat. The remaining period is displayed in weeks, for example, indicating that Kenkou Ichiro has 7 weeks remaining and that Meta Ayutaro has 1 week remaining. The timing of the video call or chat intervention is indicated within the remaining period. The intervention timing is indicated by a video call timing icon 213 and a chat timing icon 214. For example, in the case of Kenkou Ichiro, the predicted achievement is rank D, and an implementation plan is generated in which, of the remaining seven weeks, chat intervention in the first week, no intervention in the second week, video call intervention in the third week, chat intervention in the fourth week, no intervention in the fifth week, chat intervention in the sixth week, and no intervention in the seventh week. In the case of Kaga Machiko, the predicted achievement is rank D, and the remaining time is short at three weeks, so an implementation plan is generated in which video call intervention is performed in the first and third weeks, and chat intervention is performed in the second week.

In the case of Kenso Goro, the predicted achievement is C rank, but since there are five weeks remaining, an implementation plan is generated in which chat intervention will be performed in the first, third, and fifth weeks, and no intervention will be performed in the second and fourth weeks. In the case of Dainippon Hanako, the predicted achievement is B rank, and there are two weeks remaining, so an implementation plan is generated in which chat intervention will be performed in the first week, and no intervention will be performed in the second week. In the case of Meta Ayutaro, the predicted achievement is A rank, and there is one week remaining, so no additional guidance is required, but just to be on the safe side, an implementation plan is generated in which chat intervention will be performed in the first week. Note that the implementation plans are merely examples, and are not limited to the example in FIG. 19.

As described above, the display unit 58 can display an implementation plan for a video call or chat based on the acquired health data and target values. For example, when the difference between the subject's health data and the target values is relatively large, it is desirable to provide health guidance and medical treatment through dialogue via a video call, so an implementation plan for video calls and chats can be displayed. Also, when the difference between the subject's health data and the target values is relatively small, there is little urgency required, so an implementation plan for chat only can be displayed. This allows the practitioner providing health guidance and medical treatment to provide appropriate health guidance and medical treatment in accordance with the progress of the subject's health data, etc.

The display unit 58 can display a start button (start operation unit) for starting a video call or chat. By operating the start button, a video call or chat can be started, improving operability.

The display unit 58 can display the remaining period (remaining period) of the remote guidance period for the subject. This allows the practitioner who provides health guidance or medical treatment to easily understand the length of the remaining period, and therefore allows appropriate health guidance or medical treatment to be provided according to the remaining period.

The display unit 58 can display the timing of video calls or chats in association with the remaining period. For example, if the difference between the subject's health data and the target value is relatively large, the number of times for video calls and chats can be displayed to be large. Also, if the difference between the subject's health data and the target value is relatively small, the number of times for chats can be displayed to be small. This allows the practitioner who provides health guidance or medical treatment to easily know when within the remaining period to make a video call or chat.

Figure 20 is a flowchart showing an example of the procedure for sharing medical images in an electronic medical record by the medical information linkage device 50. For convenience, the following description will be given with the control unit 51 as the subject of the process. The control unit 51 accesses the electronic medical record managed by the medical work support software 11 (S11), displays the electronic medical record of the subject (patient) (S12), and identifies the image (medical image) in the electronic medical record of the subject (S13).

The control unit 51 imports the identified image onto the screen of the remote assistance software 25 (S14), transmits the imported image to the subject's subject device 30 via the remote assistance software 25 (S15), and ends the process.

Figure 21 is a flowchart showing an example of the processing procedure for making a video call or chat with a target (patient) specified in an electronic medical record by the medical information linkage device 50. The control unit 51 accesses the electronic medical record managed by the medical work support software 11 (S21) and extracts candidate targets (S22). The control unit 51 selects a target from the extracted candidates (S23) and determines whether a video call has been selected (S24).

If a video call is selected (YES in S24), the control unit 51 displays a video call screen (S25), conducts a video call with the subject device 30 via the remote assistance software 25 (S26), and determines whether or not to end the process (S27). If the process is not to end (NO in S27), the control unit 51 continues the process from step S23 onwards, and if the process is to end (YES in S27), ends the process.

If video calling is not selected (NO in S24), the control unit 51 determines whether chat has been selected (S28). If chat has been selected (YES in S28), the control unit 51 displays a chat screen (S29), accepts guidance content for the subject (S30), conducts chat via the remote assistance software 25 (S31), and performs the process of step S27. If chat is not selected (NO in S28), the control unit 51 performs the process of step S27.

Figure 22 is a flowchart showing an example of the procedure for the medical information linkage device 50 to transfer the dialogue history managed by the remote assistance software 25 to the electronic medical record. The control unit 51 selects a subject managed by the remote assistance software 25 (S41) and downloads the dialogue history of the selected subject (S42). The control unit 51 generates a summary based on the downloaded dialogue history (S43).

The control unit 51 generates recommendation information that recommends a change to the subject's behavioral goal based on the generated summary (S44), transfers the dialogue history, summary, and recommendation information to the electronic medical record managed by the medical work support software 11 (S45), and ends the process.
