Ranked Health: Curated Health Apps & Devices

Health app rankings by clinicians, researchers, & patients

Why RANKED Health is needed as detailed on their site:

While technology-enabled interventions are poised to dramatically impact healthcare efficiency, quality, outcomes and cost, the ongoing introduction of new healthcare applications, and varying maturity of those available now, create confusion and mistrust for providers and consumers, slowing adoption and use of digital healthcare products and services. RANKED Health is needed now to propel momentum in this field, and to help providers and consumers confidently choose digital solutions, based on credible evidence from trusted, unbiased healthcare and technology leaders.

  • Visit the Ranked Health websiteThe explosion of medical, as well as health & fitness, apps in the marketplace has made it near impossible for patients or providers to actually determine the credibility, quality, and effectiveness of these apps. At HMI, our goal is to critically evaluate mobile medical apps based on their clinical relevance, credibility, accuracy, and effectiveness, as well as usability and functionality, so that providers can recommend, and patient can use, condition-specific mobile apps with confidence.
