<p> Global explosion of mobile technology has engendered a new instrument to address the challenges in public health and to revolutionize the paradigm of healthcare access and delivery system. Today mobile phone coverage has increased to a significant 90% of the world’s population. The rising ubiquity and infiltration of mobile phones has kindled the beginning of a new era in healthcare, mobile health (mHealth). mHealth is the amalgamation of mobile telecommunication and multimedia into an on the go mobile health care delivery system. </p><p> Pediatric Pal is a mHealth application targeted to care for children and help build a healthier tomorrow for them. Pediatric Pal is designed to be the “Drive Thru” for the pediatric healthcare system. The mhealth app focuses on giving patients access to a highly sophisticated medical diagnosis tool. By using latest searching technologies, the system can take a pattern of symptoms in everyday language and instantly compute from our vast database. The app design and development will be outsourced to a web design Hyperlink solutions agency. Database for the app will be maintained in house and test runs will be run within the house. </p><p> The main source of revenue for the app will be from user subscription and upfront cash payment. Premium downloads will bring in the extra revenue as well. </p><p> Pediatric Pal puts world’s medical knowledge at the patients fingertips and enables them to make sense of your symptoms. It will change the way patients speak to their doctor forever.</p><p>
