A mechanism is provided to implement a health risk assessment system for adaptively and dynamically generating a personalized questionnaire for health risk assessment of a patient. A set of responses are analyzed and a patient is grouped to an initial group that matches a similar patient group. Utilizing the initial group, an initial question is selected to present to the patient. Responsive to receiving a current response to the initial question, the current response is analyzed, the patient is grouped to a next group, and a next question is identified and presented to the patient. The process continues until a last group is reached where a scoring of possible health risks associated with the patient is performed based on each response provided by the patient and identified groupings. A final possible health risk or ranked set of possible health risks is then presented based on the scoring.
A method, in a data processing system comprising at least one processor and at least one memory, the at least one memory comprising instructions executed by the at least one processor to cause the at least one processor to implement a health risk assessment system for adaptively and dynamically generating a personalized questionnaire for health risk assessment of a patient, wherein the health risk assessment system operates to:
