After searching the Internet the healthcare app that I found which provides the opportunity for a person to take more control over their health and wellness is the app by the name of “CareZone”. URL of this app is https://carezone.com/home

Functions – The app enables users to always have a list of medications, dosages and schedules handy. Users can also document their symptoms for the purpose of easy reference during actual medical appointments. Users can keep track of medical appointments, therapy sessions etc. The app has partnered with health care providers, insurers and pharmacies to enable the users to get maximum control over their health. This app is not specific to Apple or Android phones and is available to both the sets of users.

Ease of use – The app is easy to use and highly functional. Users can maintain their own journals and calendar. Important medical contacts (like doctors, pharmacies, etc) can be organized and shared. It also enables users to synchronize their list of things to be done.

Storage of personal information – Information is stored on cloud and users can easily access information as and when required.

Would you use this app – Yes, I will use this app as I found it to be quite practical, organized and relevant. Features like medication lists, dosage etc. will be highly useful for me.
