  • Publication number: 20220384020
    Abstract: A hospital that has a high possibility of accepting a user can be predicted with good precision. An estimating method is an estimating method of estimating a prospect of a hospital accepting a user at a first time. In the estimating method, a prospect of accepting the user at the first time is estimated by correlating a reason of the hospital rejecting acceptance of a user at a second time, and an amount of time from the second time to the first time.
