The healthful future of Mobile Health Apps

Mobile Health App industry is at the tip of revolutionizing the healthcare industry. These applications are positively contributing towards the improvement in delivering medical services.

Timely delivery of medical services has emerged to be one of the biggest challenges faced by medical professionals today. But sure enough, mobile health applications have emerged to be an easy answer to this problem. The adoption of healthcare-related mobile technology has been fast. Last year, the adoption of health-related smartphone apps doubled and reached 32 percent. These applications are positively contributing towards the improvement in delivering medical services.

The projected number of app downloads in 2017 is 268,692 million. Mobile healthcare is seeing phenomenal growth that shows its scope in terms of the various fields where these apps can be useful. The health mobile apps can include diagnosis and treatment, coding and billing, prescriptions and delivery, record keeping, hospital collaboration and health data management and so on.
One of the best things about today’s mobile health apps is that they are intuitive and offer a great user experience if planned and conceived thoughtfully. Healthcare-related mobile applications are no longer only about checking emails or social networking. They are today about effective collaboration between clinical teams, patients and doctors. A data from a study by ABI Research had predicted that health care apps would grow by more than $400 million every year by 2016.

The Future of Mobile Health Apps

Mobile Health App industry is at the tip of revolutionizing the healthcare industry. Technavio forecasted that the global healthcare IT spending market would grow at a CAGR of 6.44% over the period 2014-2019. And owing to its worldwide effect and scope, the SOFTWARE Act has been formulated to assist federal agencies to upgrade and replace old regulations and guidance on Health Care IT. The most important takeaway here is that Medical IT needs to be totally compliant with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). It also seeks to ensure that software companies building these apps should have access to these regulations.
It’s time health care providers start actively promoting Mobile Health Apps to survive in today’s competitive marketplace. Mobile Health Apps can be crucial for patients and HIE (health information exchange) – the two targeted cases for Healthcare Providers. Those who adapt to Mobile Health Apps now will be able to survive when the health industry moves completely toward a population-oriented and value-based care model.
