New Delhi: AI4Rx announced the launch of MedBeat HealthConnect, an application that uses AI to get an accurate medical summary of patients’ ailments and symptoms for diagnosis by medical professionals. This will help bridge the communication gap between patients and doctors.
The company has worked ceaselessly to create a strong backend of symptoms and diseases by working closely with medical professionals. The app aims to narrow down probable diagnoses by intelligently asking relevant questions, creating medical history for the prescriber, and directing and recommending the right specialist along with lab investigations to the patients.
“A good diagnosis requires a full medical history of the patient, which in turn requires a fair amount of time and effort on the doctor’s end for asking relevant questions. With MedBeat HealthConnect, we are assisting doctors optimise the time spent on each patient. Our app, through an innovative knowledge-based tool that uses AI algorithms, helps ease this by providing a full summary to the medical professional for correct diagnosis”, said Dr Monika Agarwal, Co-Founder and Chief Evangelist, AI4Rx.
The application asks the patient a minimum number of questions required for the diagnosis, narrowing down the set of probable diseases in the background. To solve the problem of language barriers, the platform interacts with the patient in their mother tongue. Utilising this key information, it creates a summary of symptoms and medical history to be presented to the doctor and suggests the right specialist. This summary contains doctors’ technical medical terminology, helping them quickly understand and reach the relevant diagnosis.
In addition to providing medical summaries, the app also suggests which speciality of doctor to visit and relevant lab examinations. One can book appointments online as well as book appointments for home collection of lab samples.
The MedBeat HealthConnect app is available for download on both Play Store and App Store. In addition, a web app is available on the MedBeat website.
