Health and Fitness App Development for the Healthcare Industry

When it comes to the health vertical, the latest technology that is driving it by its power is the Healthcare App Development. 

It has been estimated that in the year 2017 itself, the overall market value of Health Apps is going to reach a whopping $17.6 billion.

Amongst the health apps available online, 70% are developed keeping in mind the consumers and to enable them to focus on health and fitness. The rest 30% are used for targeting the health professionals only.

However, the process of bridging the gap between healthcare and technology is never easy and has many hurdles in its path. With this write-up we are aiming to contribute something, if not much, in this sector so as to enable the developers to create better health apps for the consumers. Have a look.

What to Consider During Health and fitness App Development?

 

1. Work With a Specialist

If you have developed an app for blood pressure monitoring, then the first thing that you need to do is find a physician who specializes in it. If you are low on budget, then getting beta testing done by the apps testing services can turn out to be costly for you. On the other hand, if you approach a doctor you will get 2 benefits. The doctor will do the beta testing as one of his clinical trials and can also endorse your app if the testing is successful.

2. Include Your App in Research Work

Research work in the healthcare vertical is a very long process in which funding is provided as per your development. When it comes to health and fitness app development, this benefits the developers in a way that they get to develop their app as a part of the research project and can include a number of research participants as well.

3.Get Acquainted With the Clinic’s Environment

In order to understand how the information will be collected and how will it be analyzed, the developers should come out of their bubble and understand the app’s utility by interacting with the real-world of the medical world. Before making an app, you need to understand how does a doctor understand the information given by the patient and then take the correct decision.

4. Refer the Medical Publications

Everything that happens in the medical world is surely reported in the Medline. Journals are the treasure of the medical world and open a hoard of ideas for you to take inspiration from and developing an app that can revolutionize the medical and technological world.

5. Make sure it’s Ethical & Secured

Data security is the foremost factor that needs to be surely present during health and fitness app development. It’s necessary to ensure that your app is at par with the data protection rules so that the patient’s health data is secured at all times. This gives your app the credibility and ethical approval and opens a door for your app to enter into the real world.
