Apps have revolutionized so many aspects of modern life. They automate, remind, simplify, educate, and sometimes just help to pass the time. Discover some of the best apps for doctor’s offices, both for those in the white coat and in the waiting room.
Apps for Doctors.
Clipboard.
MacPractice developed their Clipboard iPad app to streamline patient registration. The aptly named app turns an iPad into a digital clipboard and allows patients to read and sign new patient, HIPAA, and other forms. The data flows directly into a doctor’s practice-management software and can sync with MacPractice’s Mac software. Using an iPad saves time, reduces paper waste, and eliminates errors from illegible handwriting.
Epocrates Rx.
Available for iPhone, BlackBerry, Palm, Android, and Windows Mobile devices, Epocrates Rx is as easily accessible as the information it provides. This app gives doctors access to a wealth of prescription information for more than 3,500 drugs. The free app includes adult and pediatric dosing for both FDA-approved and off-label indications. It also includes warnings, contraindications, and even approximate retail pricing.
Apps for Patients.
iHealth.
This novel product combines a blood pressure cuff iPhone accessory and accompanying app, empowering modern men and women to monitor their blood pressure in style. iHealth comes with a dock for your iPhone or iPad, and a cuff that attaches to that dock. The cuff automatically inflates and also measures blood pressure, storing the information in the app.
Free RX iCard.
Essentially a prescription discount card in the form of an app, Free RX iCard is designed to save customers money at the pharmacy. Simply download the free app and show it to your pharmacy, and you may get up to 75% off your generic and prescription medications. There are no income or age limitations, and all information is completely confidential.
