We needed a CDSS (Clinical Decision Support System) that could tolerate and analyze multiple symptoms. We also wanted it to reflect real consultation that considered risk factors such as predisposing factors, chronic history, and travel history. We also wanted something that was next generation that could provide a more comprehensive and accurate triage.
