Efficient handling of appointments by
patients has never been that simple
WARSAW, POLAND - Oct 14, 2014 - KCR Date Forecaster, first
mobile application by KCR, European Contract Research Organization,
provides patients with smart scheduling and automatic reminders for
doctors appointments and medical examinations.
KCR Date Forecaster is an extremely useful tool for patients
involved in clinical trials, as well as undergoing medical
treatment. The app allows to calculate the date of next visit and
send a reminder before the appointment. Users might also add their
doctors names, check-up precautions or any additional
information.
KCR Corporate Social Responsibility commitment has inspired us
to develop a practical tool for patients who participate in
clinical trials. Tapping into the potential of the smartphones
era, KCR offers a simple app, which is combining functionalities of
notebook and reminder device at the same time. It makes handling
doctors appointments extremely simple, said Mike Jagielski,
President and CEO of KCR.
KCR Date Forecaster is envisaged to increase patients
compliance and easy follow up in a clinical study, what is crucial
for investigators to conduct the trial successfully. This is
another step on the KCRs innovation ladder and we are satisfied
that it has been made, he added.
KCR Date Forecaster includes holiday calculators for 38
countries, so it will perfectly suit the needs of patients
worldwide, and prevent making appointments on ones day off,
Saturdays or Sundays. The interface and navigation is very simple
and intuitive.
At KCR we understand the burden of illness and ongoing
treatment. Being a patient in clinical trials includes keeping
track of numerous appointments, dozens of medical records and
plethora of procedures. We do believe that KCR Date Forecaster will
be of considerable help for patients who want to efficiently handle
their calendars, and therefore support investigators by improved
patients retention, summarized Mr. Jagielski.
The new application is designed for iOS platform and available
for iPhone and iPad, and can be downloaded for free through
Apple iTunes App Store.
KCR will be present at the upcoming PCT Congress 2014 in
Barcelona, 5-6 Nov 2014, booth #801. To schedule a meeting or learn
