The importance of being able to access healthcare is paramount to living a healthy life. But to get a doctor’s opinion when one is so sick is really difficult. The proposed methodology is to apply artificial intelligence to create a medical chatbot that can diagnose the disease and provide minimal information about the disease before consulting with a doctor. Chatbots are the computer programs which use the natural language to communicate with the users. In order to reduce the costs associated with healthcare and to improve the availability of medical knowledge, the medical chatbot has been built. The proposed methodology also allows users to seek the medical advice or medical information at any time they want. Some chatbots may be knowledge-based, and their goal is to help the patient become more knowledgeable about their disease and assist them in improving their well-being. Through the database, the chatbots stores the details or the information which is collected and then provides the answer to the question asked by the users. The methodology uses natural language algorithm and machine language to gather the dataset. Thus, the users will be informed about their health status and will have adequate protection.
