Top 5 Hepatology Apps for Primary Care Providers
A mobile compendium of hepatology assessment tools, an app to help select the right treatment regimen, and 3 more liver apps for primary care.
The chief role of primary care physicians (PCPs) in hepatology is the execution of screening recommendations, ensuring patients have continuous and uninterrupted care, and helping patients set goals to keep them on track with treatment. Mobile apps can help PCPs manage patients with a range of hepatolgic conditions, which is why our app reviewer has selected 5 that pertain to primary care. Above, we highlight:
- A mobile hepatology education tool created by hepatologists for physicians.
- A guideline-driven decision support app for the treatment of hepatitis C.
- A mobile compendium of hepatology assessment tools and risk scores.
- An app that helps patients with viral hepatitis adhere to medical therapy.
