Abstract: The invention relates to an intelligent mobile application, designated CareQuest, that recommends to a patient the most suitable multispecialty hospital and books an appointment therewith through a three-stage framework operating in two parallel workflows. The system comprises of a Patient Mobile Device (100); an AI-Based Interactive Interface and Mode Selector (110); a Geographic Filter (115) shortlisting multispecialty hospitals by pin-code/GPS; a Feature Selection and Dynamic Criteria Weight Generator (120) producing a customised weight vector W over thirteen preferred criteria (medical specialisation, quality of care, affordability, waiting time, infrastructure, insurance, accessibility, payment method, doctor availability, hygiene, modern technology, accreditation, reputation); a Multi-Source Data Fusion Engine (130) with Real-Time Traffic Monitor (131) yielding T T , Ambulance Availability module (132) yielding T R , Hospital Capability module (133) yielding T C from bed/ICU data, and Specialist and Resource Availability module (134) yielding T S ; an Estimated Treatment Time Calculator (140) computing ETT = T R + T T + T C + T S per Equation (1) in the Emergency workflow; a DEA-Based Hospital Performance Assessment and Trend Forecaster (150) operative in the Non-Emergency workflow with a trichotomy of continuously well, getting better, or becoming less efficient, and dynamic quarterly/annual recalculation; a Ranked Hospital List Generator (160); an Appointment Booking Module (170); a Patient Feedback and Review Module (180) over wait times, staff conduct, cleanliness, price, satisfaction, and treatment quality; and an Admin Panel (190) for hospital-profile maintenance, DEA recalculation scheduling, review-pattern monitoring, and questionable-review flagging. The present invention ensures unified emergency and non-emergency hospital recommendation, integration of real-time operational fusion with long-horizon DEA performance analytics, patient-specific dynamic weight generation, and continuous feedback-driven improvement of hospital ranking accuracy, thereby decreasing uncertainty in hospital selection, reducing treatment initiation latency in time-critical emergencies, and increasing transparency and accessibility of healthcare for both patient cohorts.
