Posted: 15 Oct 2012 12:41 AM PDT

PEER VIII is an emergency medicine board review app released by the American College of Emergency Physicians.   PEER VIII is an excellent portable resource for emergency medicine board study while on the move.

The only thing that would make PEER VII better would be CME credit!

Key Features
  • Self Assessment Pretest to identify areas of weakness
  • Study by Category (why an answer is correct/incorrect)
  • Post test (Practice board exam)
  • Paid App - $69.99, and worth every penny

Medical App Review: Healthcare Blue Book - Prices for medical services

Posted: 01 Aug 2012 02:33 AM PDT

Healthcare Blue Book is a free medical app developed by CareOperative LLC.  This app lists price ranges and a localized "fair price" for common medical tests, procedures, and physician services.

For example, the Medicare Facility Limiting Price for a high level initial inpatient visit (CPT 99223) is $213 (national base rate).

The Healthcare Blue Book indicates that the fair price for the same service is $333 for my local area.

This app is by no means comprehensive, but it is an interesting tool to evaluate medical costs - making it useful for patients, students, residents, and anyone who would like to learn more about the costs of healthcare services.

New Kindle eBook on medical coding apps

Posted: 19 Nov 2011 11:56 AM PST

Found a Kindle eBook on Amazon about medical coding apps for iOS devices today. 
Great idea to help get through the mess that is the "Medical" section of the iTunes App Store! Wish there was a catalog of professionally selected medical apps that was as easy to use as iTunes.  Wonder if this will be available as an iBook.
