VisitRecap aims to help patients better understand and remember information from medical appointmentsA medical app created by doctors from Sudbury and London uses artificial intelligence to help patients better understand and act on information delivered during visits with their physician.
“Typically, after a lengthy encounter, patients leave empty-handed … they’re expected to remember everything that was discussed.”
Both Moktar and Antiperovitch said they have received positive feedback from patients who have downloaded the app.
“The feedback, even from much older patients, is that they seem to understand the app well.”
Like Moktar, Antiperovitch also said the app can be especially helpful for older patients recalling information provided by their doctor to family members.
