QUESTIONMED

A company focused on treating individual patients through use of a phone app. They do not want healthcare students to become a database. They want them to know how to use information by understanding before memorizing. By applying and knowing why, students can reason through a problem, rather than memorize an answer that won't fit all cases. Their product encourages healthcare students to ask questions in a systematic way to learn the basic thought process behind treating patients. They focus on the big picture rather than jumping straight to individual medications. They currently have 2 prototype apps (for 2 different disease states) for both iPhone and Androids. The future QuestionMed app will be a hub for many different disease states, all accessible from 1 app.
