  First, in the terminal device 3A, a common attribute and / or an arbitrary attribute is input as a search keyword by an operation from the operation unit 34 (step S21). The input common attribute and / or optional attribute is transmitted to the data management server 1 by the control unit 31 via the communication unit 33.

  FIG. 8 shows an example of the cooperation destination search screen 352 displayed on the display unit 35 of the terminal device 3A. The cooperation destination search screen 352 includes a common attribute input area 81, an arbitrary attribute input area 82, a clear button B3, a search button B4, a cooperation destination candidate display area 83, and a cooperation request button B5.

The common attribute input area 81 is an area where a common attribute is input as a condition (search keyword) for searching for a cooperation destination user. The common attribute input area 81 includes a belonging facility input area 81a, a name input area 81b, a medical department input area 81c, an address input area 81d, and a range input area 81e.
In the belonging facility input area 81a, the name input area 81b, the medical department input area 81c, the address input area 81d, and the range input area 81e, the belonging facility, name, medical department, address, and facility between the users to be linked are respectively determined. A distance range is entered.

The arbitrary attribute input area 82 is an area in which an arbitrary attribute is input as a condition (search keyword) for searching for a cooperation destination user.
The clear button B3 is a button for clearing the contents input to the common attribute input area 81 and the arbitrary attribute input area 82.
The search button B4 is a button for instructing a search for a user who matches the search keyword input in the common attribute input area 81 and the arbitrary attribute input area 82.

The cooperation destination candidate display area 83 is an area in which a list of searched cooperation destination candidates is displayed.
The cooperation request button B5 is a button for making a cooperation request to the user selected in the cooperation destination candidate display area 83.

  In the data management server 1, the search keyword (common attribute and / or optional attribute) transmitted from the terminal device 3 </ b> A is received by the communication unit 13. Then, the user corresponding to the attribute information matching the search keyword is extracted by the control unit 11 based on the common attribute of the public common attribute table T2 stored in the storage unit 14 and / or the optional attribute of the optional attribute table T3. (Step S22). Specifically, the control unit 11 extracts the user ID associated with the common attribute that matches the search keyword from the public common attribute table T2, and associates it with the arbitrary attribute that matches the search keyword from the arbitrary attribute table T3. The user ID being extracted is extracted. Here, “matches the search keyword” may be a partial match.

  Next, the disclosure range condition corresponding to the extracted user is acquired by the control unit 11 (step S23). Specifically, the public range condition table T4 stored in the storage unit 14 is referred to by the control unit 11, and “common attribute name” and “value” associated with the extracted user ID of the user are stored. Sets and “judgment formulas” are acquired.

  Next, the control unit 11 refers to the public common attribute table T2 stored in the storage unit 14, and acquires attribute information of a user (search user) who is performing a search operation in the terminal device 3A. Specifically, the control unit 11 acquires a set of “common attribute name” and “value” associated with the user ID of the search user from the public common attribute table T2. Then, the control unit 11 determines whether or not the attribute information corresponding to the search user matches the disclosure range condition acquired in step S23 (step S24).

  If the attribute information corresponding to the search user matches the disclosure range condition acquired in step S23 (step S24; YES), the control unit 11 corresponds to that user among the users extracted in step S22. The list of public attributes (common attributes, optional attributes) of the narrowed-down users (cooperation destination candidates) is generated by narrowing down only to users whose public range conditions match the attribute information corresponding to the search user of the terminal device 3A. (Step S25). Specifically, the control unit 11 sets a common attribute (a set of “common attribute name” and “value”) associated with the user ID of the cooperation destination candidate from the public common attribute table T2 stored in the storage unit 14. ) Is acquired, the optional attribute associated with the user ID of the cooperation destination candidate is acquired from the optional attribute table T3 stored in the storage unit 14, and a list of the acquired common attribute and optional attribute is generated . The generated list of cooperation destination candidate public attributes is transmitted to the terminal device 3 </ b> A by the control unit 11 via the communication unit 13.

  In the terminal apparatus 3A, the communication unit 33 receives the list of public attributes of the cooperation destination candidates transmitted from the data management server 1, and the control unit 31 displays the list of public attributes of the cooperation destination candidates on the display unit 35. (Step S26).

  In the cooperation destination search screen 352 shown in FIG. 8, a list of cooperation destination candidate public attributes is displayed in the cooperation destination candidate display area 83.

  Next, the user of the terminal device 3A selects a cooperation destination user from the list by an operation from the operation unit 34 (step S27). For example, in the terminal device 3A, when a user who wants to be a cooperation destination is selected from the list displayed in the cooperation destination candidate display area 83 by an operation from the operation unit 34, and the cooperation request button B5 is pressed, the control is performed. Information (user ID or the like) indicating the selected cooperation destination user is transmitted to the data management server 1 via the communication unit 33 by the unit 31.

  In the data management server 1, the communication unit 13 receives information indicating the cooperation destination user transmitted from the terminal device 3A. Then, the control unit 11 transmits a cooperation request mail to the selected user via the communication unit 13 based on the information indicating the cooperation destination user (step S28). For example, when the user of the terminal device 3B is selected as the cooperation destination user, the mail address associated with the user ID of the selected user is acquired from the user information table T1 of the storage unit 14 and selected. A collaboration request email is sent to the user.

  In step S24, when the attribute information corresponding to the search user does not match the disclosure range condition acquired in step S23 (step S24; NO), the process ends.

  The cooperation destination search process performed by the terminal device 3A and the data management server 1 has been described above, but the same applies to the case where it is performed by the terminal device 3B and the data management server 1.

  As described above, according to the medical cooperation system 100 in the present embodiment, attribute information (common attribute, arbitrary attribute) for allowing each user to search for himself / herself is stored in the data management server 1. Based on the above, it is possible to easily search for a cooperation destination for medical cooperation. For example, it is possible to select a partner to be linked from the list of users searched based on the attribute information, and to send a cooperation request mail to the selected user. Since it is possible to search for a user that matches the attribute required for the cooperation destination, it becomes easy to cooperate with an appropriate user according to the purpose of cooperation.

  In addition, by setting the disclosure range condition, it is possible to limit the disclosure destination of the self profile (the range in which oneself can be a search target).

  Moreover, since the data management server 1 can notify that there is a user that matches the notification condition by setting the notification condition, the user has registered a user that matches the registered notification condition. I can know that.

  The description in the above embodiment is an example of the medical cooperation system according to the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to this. The detailed configuration and detailed operation of each device constituting the system can be changed as appropriate without departing from the spirit of the present invention.

  In the above description, an example in which an HDD or a non-volatile memory is used as a computer-readable medium storing a program for executing each process is disclosed, but the present invention is not limited to this example. As another computer-readable medium, a portable recording medium such as a CD-ROM can be applied. A carrier wave may be applied as a medium for providing program data via a communication line.
