Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0004] For example, for a specific intractable disease defined by law, if an application is made to a health center with certificates such as a doctor's diagnosis certificate, the eligibility for receiving medical expense deduction is recognized and a recipient certificate is issued. For this application, there are many types of certificates that the applicant should prepare, and since the issuers of the documents are also various, the work burden on the applicant is large. Also, on the side of the health center or the like that has received the application, due to the specialized and complex content, there is a problem that a large number of personnel must be invested in the work for determining the eligibility for issuing the recipient certificate. Furthermore, the materials for qualification determination include documents issued by medical institutions, and attention must also be paid to the handling of personal information through the network. In addition, although smartphones and personal computers have become widespread and digitization is also progressing in administrative institutions, medical institutions, etc., a system that can flexibly respond according to the progress of digitization is desired.

Modes for Carrying Out the Invention

[0012] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail for each example.

Example

[0013] For medical and nursing care related application procedures, various certificates need to be submitted and complex application forms need to be created. In the following example, taking the application procedure for intractable disease medical certification as an example, a service site with functions to assist in the preparation of documents and the creation of application forms for such procedures will be introduced.

[0014] In addition, the present invention can also be applied to application procedures such as the pediatric chronic specific disease certification system and the disability degree certification system for the disabled. In any procedure, not only the applicant but also the necessary information of their relatives and assistants, etc. is described in the application form, and the necessary certificates for the application are obtained and attached to the application documents for submission, and then the application will be accepted. On the side that accepts the application, it is necessary to check whether the necessary items are correctly described while referring to the certificates, and determine whether the applicant has the qualifications as applied. There may also be cases where the applicant is required to correct or supplement the application documents. Therefore, the review work is also likely to become complicated.

[0015] Furthermore, for example, with the successive digitization of My Number cards, insurance cards, etc., the types of certificates required for the above application procedures are also being revised sequentially. In the process, both the applicant and the person in charge of the review work who has received the application will be burdened more than before.

[0016] In the system of the present invention, not only can it automatically create application documents based on the documents collected in the conventional manner and support the application procedure, but it can also make the application procedure simpler and easier, and at the same time, it is possible to reduce the burden on the decision-making person in charge of the review work. Furthermore, it can flexibly respond to future system revisions, etc., and reduce the burden on the relevant parties.

[0017] In this embodiment, as shown in Figure 1, a service site is provided to assist applicants in obtaining a certificate of eligibility for medical expenses related to intractable diseases, in order to facilitate their application process. This service site assists the assessment work of assessment bodies such as public health centers that receive applications, thereby reducing their workload. As digitalization progresses, the application assessment process may change in the future, but here, the embodiment will be explained using a public health center as an example of an assessment body.

[0018] As shown in Figure 1, this service site 14 is connected to a network 22 so that it can be accessed from terminal devices 18 such as personal computers and smartphones of applicants 12, and also from terminal devices 20 of judgment bodies such as public health centers. For example, it is preferable that the mobile phone communication network is used for access from the applicant's terminal device 18, and a highly secure closed network is used for access from the judgment body's terminal device 20. The service site 14 is equipped with server computers and the like that are connected to the network 22, but since this is known hardware, it is not shown and will simply be referred to as the service site 14 in this explanation.

[0019] This service site 14 is equipped with a help desk module 26, an identity verification processing module 28, an applicant information storage processing module 30, a data collection module 32, a judgment data generation module 34, a communication control module 36, a certificate analysis module 33, and an application preparation data storage processing module 31. All of these are modules that function through a server computer program that automatically processes data. Furthermore, a storage device 42 is provided to store data acquired or generated at the service site 14 for the purpose of application.

[0020] In order to issue a certificate of eligibility for medical expenses for intractable diseases, the assessment body (public health center) makes a determination based on the type and severity of the intractable disease to be certified, the income category of the applicant 12, and other eligibility criteria. In other words, the eligibility rank, such as the percentage of medical expenses to be borne, is determined according to the content of the application. Therefore, conventionally, the applicant 12 had to obtain a medical certificate and clinical survey form prepared by a doctor, as well as a resident registration certificate, health insurance card, tax payment certificate, etc., and submit these as supporting documents 46 along with the application form 44 to the public health center. The service site 14 of the present invention automates much of this procedure, reducing the burden on the applicant 12. At the same time, it provides an automated assessment report 48, reducing the burden on the assessment body's assessment processing.

[0021] (Help Desk Module) The help desk module 26, located at the service site 14, has the function of providing information and advice on tasks and precautions necessary for the applicant's application process. It can display a list of frequently asked questions, automatically answer questions using AI (Artificial Intelligence) in a chat format, and connect to the support staff's terminal device 27, as shown in Figure 1. Furthermore, when the help desk module 26 receives a request from the applicant 12 for assistance with the application for issuance of a beneficiary certificate, it has the function of opening an area in the storage device 42 to record and store data specific to that applicant. Figure 1 shows the data stored in the storage device 42.

[0022] (Identity verification processing module) The identity verification processing module 28 reads the applicant's My Number Card through the applicant's terminal device 18, obtains the applicant's name, address, date of birth, and gender to confirm the applicant's identity, and executes a process to obtain applicant information 40, including the applicant's authentication data 50, from the My Number Portal 37. The applicant information storage processing module 30 stores this obtained applicant information 40 in the storage device 42. The authentication data 50 is used to automatically create a certificate issuance request form 47, application form 44, etc., on the service site 14 side after identity verification, as shown in Figure 2. The format of the authentication data 50 is arbitrary. Any electronic data that proves that the procedure is being performed by the person in question is acceptable.

[0023] (Data collection module) The data collection module 32 pre-generates certificate specification data 45 that specifies the certificates 43 necessary to create the application form 44 and stores it in the storage device 42. Referring to the certificate specification data 45, it generates a prescribed certificate issuance request form 47 with the authentication data 50 of the applicant 12. This certificate issuance request form 47 is sent to the city hall 38, medical institution 39, etc., which are certificate issuers, and the certificates 43 necessary for the qualification application are obtained via the network 22.

[0024] As shown in the list of attached documents in Figure 3, data such as household records 56, resident registration certificates 58, resident registration certificates for all household members, municipal tax assessment certificates 60, and health insurance cards 62 can be obtained from city halls 38, etc. For example, if the environment is set up, it will also be possible to directly obtain this information by accessing data from prefectures and municipalities via an intermediate server provided by JLIS (Japan Local Government Information Systems Organization). The data collection module 32 only needs to generate a certificate issuance request form 47 with verified authentication data 50 according to the application destination.

[0025] The application form for specific medical expense reimbursement 44 (Figure 3) requires the applicant to fill in various details about themselves. This uses information read from the applicant's My Number Card and information obtained from MyNa Portal 37, etc. The data collection module 32 has the function of printing and preparing for mailing application documents and applicant consent forms 52 for routes that have not yet been digitized. For example, medical institutions 39 mail medical certificates and clinical survey forms 54 to applicants 12. Therefore, the module has the function of sending messages to applicants 12 requesting them to mail or email the relevant documents and preparing return envelopes for mailing.

[0026] Furthermore, as the digitalization of administrative and medical institutions progresses, it is expected that income tax information and household information will also be obtainable from the My Number Portal. In addition, it would be beneficial to have a function that allows users to send various certificate issuance request forms 59 with the applicant's authentication data to certificate issuing institutions and request that the data file be automatically returned only when only the specified required information has been entered. This would allow only the minimum necessary data for the application to be collected from administrative institutions, thus facilitating the protection of the applicant's personal information.

[0027] (Applicant information storage and processing module) The applicant information storage and processing module 30 has the function of saving the application documents 41 used in the application, not only for the application process but also to support the applicant 12 after the application has been submitted. However, if related documents are stored as they are, security management becomes difficult.

[0028] Therefore, the applicant information storage processing module, for example, stores the application form 44 and supporting documents 46 in the storage device 42 until the application procedure is completed, and then erases all data after the application procedure to the determining body (public health center, etc.) is completed. Alternatively, only the application form 44 and the determination results, such as the beneficiary certificate issued as a result, can be stored in the storage device 42, storing only the minimum data necessary for support after obtaining the beneficiary certificate and for renewal applications.

[0029] (Application preparation data storage and processing module) The application preparation data storage processing module 31 (Figure 1) stores the application documents 41, including the application form 44 and supporting documents 46 (including certificates) required for qualification application, in the storage device 42, and has the function of controlling the data collection module 32 until all the necessary data is available. Conventionally, once all the supporting documents 46 required for the application were available, they were submitted to the judging body along with the application form 44, and the staff of the judging body would analyze their contents and make a qualification determination. In the service site 14 of the present invention, an automated judgment report 48 is generated and a process is performed to reduce the burden of this complex judgment work.

[0030] (Certificate parsing module) The certificate analysis module 33 (Figure 1) has the function of automatically reading the information written in the acquired certificate 43, comparing it with all the documents submitted for the qualification application and the information in the certificate, and outputting a comparison result 49. The information that should be written in the documents submitted for the qualification application is pre-documented as a checklist. The module then determines which certificate contains the information that should be written in the application form and generates a comparison result 49 by linking the data from both.

[0031] (Decision data generation module) The judgment data generation module 34 has the function of automatically performing processing equivalent to all or part of the qualification application judgment work by referring to the above application documents 41 and the matching results 49, and generating an automated judgment report 48 showing the results. The qualification judgment body checks which information in the application and certificate to use as the basis for the qualification judgment and stores a checklist 35 based on the qualification judgment rules at the service site 14.

[0032] When the data collection module 32 determines that it has obtained all the necessary application documents 41, it extracts the information necessary for eligibility determination from the application documents 41 by referring to the checklist 35 that indicates the determination items, on behalf of the staff of the determination agency. As shown in Figure 4, for example, the clinical survey personal form 54 to be submitted as a certificate contains the date of treatment 70, the name of the medical institution 72, the patient's name 74, and the name of the disease and its severity 76. The image data is read using OCR (Optical Character Recognition) and this data is extracted.

[0033] The application form includes these items, but there is no need to report other information, so any personal information of the applicant is removed from the image data. Then, the name of the certificate and the extracted information are compared to create a matching result 49. All information necessary for qualification determination is also extracted from various certificates 80 such as resident registration certificates and tax certificates. A matching result 49 is created for all of these certificates. The matching result is, for example, a list comparing the certificate used, the extracted data from that certificate, and the required information on the application form and where it is written.

[0034] Here, by referring to checklist 35 and matching results 49, an automated judgment report 48 is generated that organizes and displays the relevant information. In addition, for example, the data corresponding to the tax amount on the tax certificate is read to determine the benefit rank according to the tax amount and calculate the self-payment amount. The automated judgment report 48 (Figure 4) contains the "applicant information" that forms the basis of the judgment, and the "self-payment amount judgment result" specifically describes the data that formed the basis of the calculation. Since it is immediately clear from the matching results 49 which certificates contain the required information on the application form, it is possible to process eligibility determination and other tasks quickly and easily.

[0035] In the past, when the types of documents to be submitted at the time of application were specified, applicants would simply prepare and submit those documents without question. However, due to various system reforms and the digitalization of documents, the format and required information of previously submitted documents often change. Documents that were previously necessary to prove certain matters may now be adequately proven by other documents.

[0036] The verification results may indicate that certain information certified by some supporting documents can be fully verified by other supporting documents. In such cases, if permitted by the receiving authority, the submission of the relevant supporting documents can be automatically omitted; if not permitted, a revision of the system can be proposed to the receiving authority. Submitting the verification results 49, which show the relationship between all submitted documents and the certified information, to the judging authority can lead to a revision of the system.

[0037] (Communication control module) The communication control module 36 (Figure 1) transmits the application form 44 requesting the issuance of a beneficiary certificate, the supporting documents 46, and the automated assessment report 48, which are stored in the storage device 42 (Figure 1), to the terminal device 20 of the qualification assessment body, such as a public health center. At the same time, it transmits a copy thereof to the applicant's terminal device 18. Therefore, the applicant 12 can obtain a beneficiary certificate by only performing the data input and data transmission tasks requested by the service site 14.

[0038] (Judgment body) Public health centers and other assessment bodies can refer to the information in the automated assessment report 48 to determine, for example, the eligibility rank and issue a certificate for medical expenses for intractable diseases. Since all the necessary information for the assessment is included, and the calculation results for determining the eligibility rank and payment rate are also included, the burden of review is greatly reduced. The submitted supporting documents 46 only need to be referred to for confirmation. When applying for renewal, a new application form can be created while referring to the application documents submitted last time. If past application documents 41 are stored in the storage device 42 of the service site 14, the assessment data generation module 34 can generate data corresponding to the difference between the previous and current applications and attach it to the automated assessment report 48, further reducing the burden on the assessment process at public health centers. [Examples]

[0039] (Protection of personal information) As mentioned earlier, for example, the supporting documents for the application form for a medical expense recipient certificate for intractable diseases contain important personal information such as medical information. These supporting documents also contain many items that are not necessary for determining whether to issue the recipient certificate. Therefore, for example, using the clinical survey form 54 shown in Figure 4, after extracting the data necessary for determining whether to issue the recipient certificate, a process is performed to mask the items that are not necessary for determining the recipient certificate. If the process from receiving the clinical survey form 54 to this masking process is automated, it will remain hidden from public view.

[0040] The processed clinical survey form 54 will clearly indicate the data extraction locations 64 and the masked locations 66. The storage device 42 will store this masked data. This process is performed on all accompanying documents. This facilitates management for the protection of personal information.

[0041] Furthermore, if permitted by the judging body, it is advisable to submit masked image data of the various certificates as supporting documents, rather than images of the original documents. This allows the judging body to compare the necessary parts with the original certificates, enabling them to make a judgment with confidence. This also makes it easier for the judging body to manage and protect personal information.

[0042] Traditionally, when receiving various applications, the application form was submitted with the original certificate attached, and after issuing the permit, the permit and the complete set of application documents were bound together and stored. However, for example, a resident registration certificate has an expiration date and will not function as proof unless submitted within a certain period from the date of issue. This problem could be solved if a database that allows real-time verification of the applicant's address, etc., using My Number (social security number), were available.

[0043] As various institutions digitize, it is likely that eventually there will be no need to attach original certificates or their images to application forms. A list of URLs that allow instant access to the latest data using authentication data would suffice. This would completely resolve the issue of protecting personal information. As a transitional measure until then, as described above, masked image data of various certificates should be submitted to the judging body as supporting documents, and each certificate should display an inquiry number assigned by the certificate issuing authority when the original was issued. When the judging body wishes to verify the original, it should be possible to access the certificate issuing authority's database using the inquiry number.

[0044] As demonstrated above, applicants applying for, for example, a certificate of eligibility for medical expenses related to intractable diseases can receive comprehensive support for the complex application process involving numerous related organizations. This allows them to complete the process promptly. Since the documents required for the certificate application are obtained via the network and stored in a dedicated area of ​​the storage device, the progress of the procedure can be monitored and managed automatically and smoothly. Moreover, since the information required for the application is based on eligibility determination rules, providing the results of the automated determination to the determination body significantly reduces the burden of complex determination work for the determination body, such as public health centers, through the automated determination report. The service site stores application history while protecting personal information, so it can be used even after eligibility is obtained, for example, for renewal procedures. [Examples]

[0045] (Proxy designation module) To operate the above service site 14, it is recommended to use an application application that is installed on the applicant's terminal device and runs on the service site. The exact same process can be achieved by opening the application request URL on the service site and operating the application application via the cloud. In any case, when the application application is launched, the applicant's identity verification process will be performed. At this time, it may be necessary for the parent, guardian, or other representative acting on behalf of the applicant to also be able to perform the same identity verification process. There may also be legal representatives such as guardians. This may occur when the applicant is unable to complete the procedure due to disability, etc. The operation of the service site in such cases will be explained in the section on (association between applicant and representative).

[0046] (Linking the applicant with their agent) If the applicant is unable to complete all or part of the procedure themselves, or if a parent or guardian directly enters the information, the application app 82 shown in Figure 6 is used. This allows the applicant's relative or other representative to complete the procedure. To enable such representatives to use the application app 82 as smoothly as the applicant themselves, a representative designation module 84 is provided.

[0047] When the agent designation module 84 is activated, an operation screen 86 is displayed where the user can enter the agent's email address, name, etc. Once this information is entered, a URL 88 for agent registration is generated and sent to the agent's terminal device 90.

[0048] The agent uses the agent registration screen 92 provided at this URL to enter agent information 94 indicating that they are the applicant's agent, and registers as an agent. When identity verification is performed using the My Number Card 96, the necessary information obtained from the My Number Card 96, including the agent's My Number, is registered in the identity verification processing module 28 operated by the application application 82, and the agent registration is completed. After that, the agent can proceed with the application procedure by launching the application application 82 with the My Number Card 96, just like the applicant. The information obtained from the My Number Card 96, including the My Number, can also include information obtainable from the My Number Portal. Only the necessary information needs to be selected and registered from there.

[0049] In some cases, application form 41 may require the input of household member information. When the application app 82 is used to input the email address and name of a household member (such as a legal guardian), this URL is sent to the relevant household member. That household member can then use the agent registration screen provided at this URL to input their own household member information. In this case as well, if identity verification is performed using a My Number Card, the necessary information obtained from the My Number Card 96, including the household member's My Number, is registered in the identity verification processing module 28 operated by the application app 82, and the registration of household member information is completed. This allows household members who do not live with the applicant to remotely register household member information on behalf of the applicant using the application app 82. In this way, many of the complicated procedures involved in obtaining certificates from administrative and medical institutions, including those for the applicant and their representatives such as relatives, can be automated, providing strong support for the applicant to obtain the required qualifications. At the same time, the burden on the qualification assessment body is also reduced. [Explanation of symbols]
