siliconindia | | May 20194An End to the Search of Doctors for Medical AttentionIt cannot be mentioned enough number of times, in enough number of articles that, of all the areas that have improved with drastic technological advancement, healthcare seems to have benefitted the most. Mobile app development specifically has had a significant impact on the progress of the healthcare industry in general. From performing functions like encouraging doctor-patient interactions, medical record management to streamlining the treatment as a whole, healthcare mobile apps are helping us lead longer, healthier lives. Application of Artificial Intelligence or AI to healthcare sector through mobile apps can set forth revolutionary trends that can change the face of the industry in near future. Modern developments paired with AI fortify healthcare apps and make them equipped to handle patient diagnosis, disease monitoring, health analysis, record management and risk prediction. When healthcare mobile apps made their grand debut a few years ago, there were mixed feelings. On the one hand, being able to search for doctors, make doctor appointments, view medical records, see lab results, and so on is a huge convenience. On the other hand, having sensitive information (like medical records) available in a mobile format could be considered an unnecessary security risk. However, with security software evolving at a fast rate, most patients are beginning to take advantage of healthcare mobile apps. The absence of a reliable doctor or hospital in the vicinity or a busy work schedule may dissuade many people from seeking timely medical help. This problem is as prevalent in tier 2 and tier 3 cities as it is in tier 1 cities. In tier 2 and tier 3 cities, there is another problem that people may not have a doctor in the locality they can go to. This edition of SiliconIndia Healthcare is focused on such healthcare mobile application providers that mostly deal with the unavailability of doctors at reach. The applications put together in this edition are addressing several more segments or pain-points of the healthcare industry. Do let us know what you think.
