An emerging challenge for clinicians is the use of health apps by consumers.

The Digital Health Guide will assess and recommend health apps to clinicians, including:

• Who made it, and what are their affiliations;
• What platforms does it work on;
• What the solution does;
• What diseases / conditions is the solution targeted at;
• What is the pricing model;
• Global ratings – combining health providers, app stores and our algorithms;
• Health provider reviews and documented clinical evidence.

Clinicians can guide patients on the appropriate use of health apps, and even ‘prescribe’ them as part of ongoing care.
