Abstract

The chat bot is a communicative agent that simulates an intelligent conversation by a computer program. It can acquire user input in many ways such as text, speech, emotions, etc... Several tools are required for this reason. The chat-bot is simple to use. When going for health checks people need to book prior doctor appointments a couple of days before and patients now say it is difficult to find a doctor, and combined with the rising physician attrition rate it will be extremely limited in terms of healthcare professionals to handle such new patients. A medical chat-bot provides semi-finished symptomatic diagnosis and is used for hospital doctor appointments. More assistance can be provided for more diagnostic tasks, such as the place, duration, intensity of the symptoms and comprehensive symptoms. In short term the symptom recognition and disease diagnosis of the chat-bot could be significantly improved. The potential trend of technology is that people will spend time on messaging apps more than ever. Thus, there is a wide variety of scope for medical chat-bots. For a medical discussion, the distance is not significant. The performance of a chat-bot can be improved by adding more vocabulary to the database so that many illnesses can be dealt with by the medical chat-bot.
