Project Description
This project looks into how to translate preventative medicine into a mobile application. We will look at the research into pust notificaitons and health care management portals to see what is most effective at helping people manage care. Addtionally we wills start building out common notificaitons/scheduling for everyone such as regular vaccine schedules.Research Tasks: data collection via building familiarity with AICP, USPSTF, Florida Shots and other State mandated vaccine warehouses, NCQA ratings, HEDIS, other unique health reminder needs;
literatiure review of health care reminder platforms
Skills that research assistant(s) may need: Zotero (reccomended)
VScode (recommended)
Github/Github desktop (recommended)
app development (recommended)
