A patient management app is a web or mobile application that enables users to access and manage the medical information of multiple patients. Such applications typically include interfaces for viewing, storing, editing and sharing patient information such as symptoms, diagnoses, treatments, and check-ins at Health Care facilities.

Patient management apps share common features with medical apps, wellness apps, and health consultation apps. One of the most popular patient management apps is Practo. There are several Android and iOS patient management apps in the Health Care industry.

A patient management app for doctors can grow by helping physicians make better use of their time and coordinate with their patients. An effective strategy is to offer users an incentive to refer the app to their own patients, as well as access to a large pool of user-generated content from other physicians.

A patient management app faces risks related to the handling of sensitive personal health information, the transfer of data across international borders, and the privacy of minors. Before creating a patient management app, you will want to ensure that you have consent from users and that your HIPAA compliance policies are in place. You will also want to ensure that your app is compliant with all applicable laws governing the use of medical data.
