In conjunction with the healthcare industry moving towards a more digital delivery model that is both patient-focused and value-based, medical informatics company iPatientCare has unveiled three new apps that are intended to keep individuals on course with their health needs.
These apps, which are available as a free download for iPhones and iPads, are miMeds, miCalc and miWater.
The miMeds application was created considering Medication Adherence, and serves as a tool to remind individuals to take medications and nutritional supplements. Users can input medication and supplement schedules and the app allows for a historical tracking of the medications and supplements a person takes.
miCalc is designed mainly for pregnant mothers so that they can take better care of themselves, which in turn also helps the health of their unborn children as well. The app calculates vital measurements, including body mass index, body surface area, ideal body weight, due date by LMP, due date by ultrasound and gestational age. In addition to assisting pregnant mothers, miCalc can also help fight against many diseases such as obesity.
miWater allows users to keep track of how much water they consumer in a given day. Individuals can set a daily intake goal of how much water they would like to consume daily and the app will notify them if you are falling behind on that goal. Users of miWater can also enter their current wright into the app to determine how much water their body actually needs. When they finish drinking a cup or glass water, users can record it in the app.
“We are proud to launch innovative cutting edge patient-centered Medical Apps for healthcare," Kedar Mehta, chief technology officer for iPatientCare, said in a statement. "Our expertise in data, analytics, technology, and health care strategy are critical additions to our product suite, which aims to improve healthcare cost, quality, and patient satisfaction."
iPatientCare's product suite includes Electronic Health/Medical Record and integrated Practice Management/Billing System, Patient Portal/PHR, Health Information Exchange, and mobile point-of-care solutions for ambulatory and acute/sub-cute market segments.
In a press release, iPatientCare President and CEO, Udayan Mandavia, said iPatientCare has been empowering the healthcare community for years and these three medical applications is just another way that the company is empowering patients and educating them on how to stay healthy.
