Can you recommend a mobile health app for collecting symptoms and patient-reported outcomes from chronic care patients?

Yes—here are a few strong options, depending on what you need.

Good all-around recommendation

Epic MyChart Care Companion / patient-reported outcomes (if you use Epic)

• Best if your clinic already runs on Epic
• Supports symptom tracking, questionnaires, and PRO collection
• Integrates directly into the medical record
• Good for chronic care workflows, reminders, and clinician review

Standalone mobile health apps to consider

1. Kaia Health

• Strong for chronic conditions like musculoskeletal pain, COPD, and back pain
• Includes patient-reported symptom tracking and coaching
• More patient-facing than clinic workflow-focused

2. ValeraHealth

• Good for chronic care management and remote symptom monitoring
• Supports mobile check-ins and PRO-style questionnaires
• Useful for care teams that want operational dashboards

3. Medisafe / similar adherence-focused apps

• Better for medication and basic symptom logging
• Less ideal if you need structured PROs and clinical workflow integration

If you need research-grade PRO collection

4. REDCap Mobile App

• Excellent for structured data collection and validated questionnaires
• Common in research and registries
• Less polished for everyday patient self-management, but very reliable

What to prioritize

For chronic care patients, I’d look for:

• Validated PRO instruments support, like PROMIS, PHQ-9, pain scales
• Mobile-friendly reminders
• Offline capability
• EHR integration
• Clinician dashboard / alerts
• HIPAA compliance and audit logging

My practical recommendation

• If you want clinical integration: Epic MyChart Care Companion
• If you want a flexible standalone PRO tool: REDCap Mobile
• If you want patient engagement plus symptom tracking: Kaia Health or ValeraHealth

If you tell me:

1. the chronic condition,
2. whether you need EHR integration,
3. and whether this is for clinic care or research,

I can narrow it down to 2–3 best-fit apps.
