Abstract
Upon evaluation of a value of a diagnostic process, the value of a diagnostic process is evaluated not based on a simple cost but on a cost required for all processes of a patient who was in the diagnostic process through a follow-up survey. Diagnostic processes that are not relevant to a target diagnostic process are eliminated, clustering is performed on patients to divide the patients into clinically meaningful homogeneous groups, and the target diagnostic process is evaluated for each of the homogeneous groups. For the purpose, importance scores of data pieces of the clinical data are calculated and the relevant data is output using the output result of the medical knowledge extraction unit, clustering is performed on patients in the clinical data, and a clinical index and a cost are output for each of the clusters.
