“The app resulted from the need to offer our customers the possibility of saving both time and money by eliminating the need for them to return to our offices to pick up results, because now results are on the palm of their hands in a mobile device,” explained Benjamín Díaz de León, System Development Manager (Analysis Centers) of the Proa Group.

The application, with over 32,000 downloads, enables queries about medical records relative to lab results dated as of 2010, in addition to the possibility of comparisons of tests made using a graph, or find Chopo’s branches, or even have the easiest route to reach the one closest to the customer.
This application also includes preventive medicine tools such as body mass index or the risk of suffering cardiovascular disease, all of which represent data for benefitting health conditions.
“With this app, our idea is to provide our customers with a simple tool to follow-up on their lab tests such as: cholesterol, glucose, pregnancy, etc., and to compare tests through time, where one of the features is to show, in colors, whether results are within the expected reference values or not. So, for example, if a person is out of town and experiences an instance of low sugar values, we can facilitate a physician´s diagnosis by providing previous results and a history of our glucose tests,” assured Díaz de León.
