The medical examination information handled by such a medical examination information processing device includes patient name, gender, age, date of birth, height,
The information includes general information about the patient such as weight and blood pressure, information about the doctor's diagnosis such as disease name and degree of lesion, and information about test results such as electrocardiogram, X-ray, and blood and urine test results. Among these medical examination information, - boat fishing information does not need to be kept secret and can be input by anyone.

However, information related to diagnosis is related to medical practice and should only be entered by doctors, and in the case of serious illnesses, for example, the name of the illness should not be known to the patient. Therefore, it is necessary to allow only a specific operator such as a doctor to read the information. Furthermore, it is preferable that the doctor input various examination information while making judgments.

However, conventional medical examination information processing devices are not configured to limit operators depending on the type of information.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) As described above, in the conventional medical examination information processing device, writing and reading of medical examination information to a recording medium is difficult.
It was not configured to be restricted to specific operators, and the information was not encrypted. Therefore, there was a risk that medical examination information would be leaked to others or altered. Furthermore, although only doctors can perform medical procedures, there was a fear that unqualified persons would perform medical procedures.

In view of the above-mentioned drawbacks of the prior art, it is an object of the present invention to make it possible to manipulate medical examination information by limiting the number of operators depending on the content of the information so that they can write and read the information. The purpose of this invention is to provide a medical examination information processing device that can prevent information from being leaked or tampered with.

(Means for Solving the Problems) The present invention provides a medical examination information processing device in which medical examination information is divided into information for which the operator is restricted and information for which the operator is not restricted, and is written and recorded on a recording medium.
