CareAPP is the mobile content portal of the Health Information Knowledgebase which provides mobile health information resources to care providers, health professionals, and health product and service suppliers for publishing patient-oriented communications as required by the HITECH Act. It is the first dedicated mobile content system supporting health information exchange services and programs.



CareAPP includes multi-lingual, mobile content to help make care management more efficient and cost effective for providers, and includes: A Mobile Health App Authoring System, an online portal for publishing health care apps for patients with mobile devices.

The Journal of mobileHealth Information and Technology to keep health professionals connected to professional articles and presentations on health information design and management.

A Patient Feedback Service to help care providers monitor their information exchange program to determine how communications can be made more efficient and easier to use for patients.

A Visual Literacy Analysis service that uses eye track technologies to research and evaluate user interactions with mobile devices, including medical service devices, to improve mobile communication design for exchange management.

In addition to mobile content resources for health care providers, the CareAPP Health Information Network provides a series of free mobile care apps for patients and consumers to access from their mobile devices. The free resources include: The Mobile Health Library of apps for patients and consumers on diseases, conditions, anxiety disorders, fears and phobias, health calculators for on-the-go health management, and a popular drug interaction app that links users to the U.S National Library of Medicine and the U.S. National Institutes of Health.

Mobile Health News and Alerts for news briefs on health care developments impacting public health and alerts about new care apps available on the network.

“Meaningful use mandates will change the way providers communicate to patients, especially through highly efficient mobile technologies” says Richard L.
