Abstract: The integration of digital technology and Artificial Intelligence (AI) into healthcare systems has immense potential to enhance doctor availability, streamline appointment scheduling, and improve patient outcomes. Our application is designed to facilitate efficient healthcare access by providing comprehensive information about doctors, including details such as name, qualifications, specialties, location, and nearby medical facilities. Patients can easily access emergency medical service contacts, locate blood banks, and schedule appointments with specific doctors based on their needs. The application also provides a centralized view of appointment statuses, showing completed, upcoming, and canceled appointments for better patient management. Additionally, a search functionality enables patients to find specialists tailored to their specific health concerns.
In the next phase, we are working on AI integration to incorporate a Virtual Doctor Assistant. This feature will allow for disease prediction based on patient-reported symptoms, offering preliminary diagnosis and personalized recommendations. These include primary medication suggestions, dietary advice, and preventive measures, ensuring immediate assistance in the absence of doctors. This AI- driven addition aims to empower patients with proactive healthcare guidance, [1] reduce patient wait times, and facilitate informed medical decision-making, marking a significant step toward smart healthcare delivery.
