A method for monitoring a health status of a human subject includes the capturing of medical data concerning the health of the subject at defined intervals using a questionnaire. The questionnaire provides a standard script for data capture. Part of the captured data is constrained to a Likert scale while other data is on a visual analog scale. The captured data further includes an assessment by a physician of health symptoms of the subject. The captured data is input into a computer, provided to an algorithm that is configured to assess a risk of acute heart failure. The risk of acute heart failure is computed using the algorithm and the captured data from a plurality of the defined intervals. In one method, the health status of the subject as being either improved or worsening is output to the physician as a function of a value of the computed risk. In another method, a survival function outcome for the subject is predicted using the output of the algorithm.
