The paper introduces Expected‑Severity‑Risk (ESR), a new objective for selecting questions in proactive medical dialogue that prioritizes reducing the expected severity of diagnostic errors rather than merely uncertainty. ESR uses population statistics to marginalize over possible answers and distills its rankings into a prefix‑only language policy, enabling deployment without teacher‑side risk computation. Experiments on DDxPlus show ESR cuts high‑severity diagnostic misses by 29.5% and boosts accuracy while adding only 0.14 extra questions per dialogue.
