Do you get the feeling apps are getting dumber? They are, and that’s a good thing. Behind the surprising simplicity of some of today’s top apps, smart developers are realizing that they’re able to get users to do more by doing less.

While many people feel the move to mobile health may be simply a fad, I believe it will become the new normal in healthcare. Here’s why:
#1 Hospitals are all about motion

When it comes to patient education apps, physicians have a great selection. There are apps such as the Orca Health Decide series or the DrawMD visual education app series.
Some patient education apps are not focused on diseases or conditions but rather on the range and accessibility of services available to the user.
GP Ratings is the first app of this kind specifically for the UK which takes advantage of the recent GP patient survey conducted by the The UK Department of Health.
The app is designed to assist would be patients see ratings of their local GP surgery as deemed by information collected in a recent nationwide government study.
The app contains detailed ratings for the 8,300 surgeries in England. On average each surgery has 130 survey respondents for each of the questions below.
The measures are:
* Would patients recommend their GP Surgery to others?
The data is converted into a star rating so it’s easy to interpret. An average of these ratings is then taken and compared nationally to give an overall star rating.
Upon entering the app, each user is prompted to enter their postcode or alternatively search by GPS.

Take Home: UMass Medical School and WPI have developed an app that can detect atrial fibrillation. This moves connected and mobile health closer to reality. The really important development with this approch might allow us to treat patients who have AF intermittently (paroxysmal) differently than we currently do. Because we are worried about stroke, patietns now get blood thinners all the time because we are concerned that they will have recurrences without knowing about it. With this technology, in the future, we might see validation of a strategy that allows use of blood thinners when patients are in AF only, sometimes called a pill in the pocket.

There may be 12,000 apps out there but they’re not 12,000 good apps,” Chris Wasden, Global Healthcare Innovation Leader for PwC, said at the MedCity Converge health tech conference Tuesday.
“They’re mostly bad apps that people rarely use.”
Aside from the issues with the apps themselves, he said recent research conducted by PwC found that even though patients are eager to adopt mobile health, doctors and the larger system surrounding them are reluctant to change things up.
“Consumers are demanding it,” he said. “Doctors see mobile healthcare being much more transformative and disruptive to their practice. This transformation and disruption is so painful that they’re very resistant to doing those changes.”
