Healthcare apps - 17 examples

There are always ways to improve life, especially when looking at healthcare. In the world of apps, it’s not only about technology but also about people. Technology has thus found its way into healthcare. Healthcare is more and more supported and improved with the use of digital applications, this is also called eHealth. eHealth has become a crucial part of healthcare and the well-being of patients. Healthcare applications are an indispensable tool in the care and welfare of users and patients. 

Which types of healthcare apps are most often used?

Apps contribute to healthcare in these 3 aspects:

  1. Information 
  2. Communication
  3. E-learning

17 examples of healthcare apps 

Below we would like to share some examples of healthcare apps from the DTT portfolio, these examples vary depending on their framework and objectives. Every solution has its own problem definition. We would gladly listen to your goals and ideas. We will listen to your desires, we’ll talk about our experiences and provide you with new insights and advice. With our experience in developing apps, we are able to advise about the possibilities, when we come to the conclusion of developing a healthcare app we will directly start creating the app. To give you an idea about some healthcare apps, we present the following 17 eHealth apps. 

Ziekenhuisbedchecker 

The Ziekenhuisbedchecker was urgently developed by the request of the Dutch Ministry of Health, Welfare, and Sport regarding the corona crisis. The Ziekenhuisbedchecker makes the capacity of the Dutch healthcare system comprehendible by showing an overview of available hospital beds, nursing home beds, and emergency room beds. The solution is set up as a PWA (Progressive Web App) which means that the solution performs well on mobile devices, laptops, and desktops.The application is available for every healthcare provider. The Ziekenhuisbedchecker was ordered to be developed with urgency, but that was no problem for DTT. Read the testimonial of the ministry of Health, Welfare, and Sport.

The solution was created in close collaboration with  Erasmus MC.

H2: RIVM Tekenbeet app

Ticks can be quite annoying when you want to enjoy springtime out of town. Their bites not only bring discomfort but can also transmit serious diseases that have a severe effect on your body - Lyme disease.

Within this summary, the user can read how healthy the supply of the canteen is and where improvements can be made. If the canteen meets the guidelines of the Netherlands Nutrition Centre, the user will receive a review including a medal of bronze, silver, gold, or “ideal”. Thereafter, the user can request a certificate and will receive this after control of the data by the Netherlands Nutrition Centre. Read the positive testimonial of The Netherlands Nutrition Centre

For Welzorg, DTT developed the Welzorg Pechhulp app. With the app, people of age that still ride their mobility scooter can easily call for help when a deficiency occurs.
