Abstract
EHealth in the Czech Republic is still evolving. On the one hand, the problem is the lack of trust between patients and fear of personal data leakage. On the other hand, doctors argue that the proposed system is not sophisticated. In this context we have created smartphone application (Můj®Lékař, Google Play, CZ) as a cornerstone mobile client for the patient. The current version of application is a pilot project designed for patients. The application is location aware and searches pharmacies and healthcare professionals by specialty near the patient. The data sorted by distance are presented as the list or on a map. There is an option to save a doctor to favorites tab. The current database includes 20,000 physicians and 5,000 pharmacies. We plan to extend the application of the other modules as a list of medications, medical procedures and classification of diseases, thus everything in one place. If a user reveals an any discrepancy in presented information, e-mail feedback is enabled to correct the data. We also plan to include interactive modules such as risk of diseases calculators, but data will be anonymous. The user will of course have the option to send data to his doctor. The author disclose that he is a principal in the company which produces and markets the application.
