The mobile engagement has swiftly risen to one of the top four strategies for delivering next-gen experiences to customers — thanks to the rate of adoption of mobile devices and applications in the last ten years. The rapid growth has prompted organizations to take the mobile-first approach for enhancing the customer’s journey. The ‘mobile engagement’ market is currently valued at around $6B and is expected to reach $38.7B by 2023, growing at 43.4% CAGR.
The benefits have transcended the initial hype from several years ago, offering deep, yet economical marketing channels across all verticals. Companies are now able to leverage valuable insights into the behaviour of their prime users in order to attract, engage, acquire and retain those most loyal to them.
Mobile apps
From online retailers to financial services, the agile nature of mobile forces companies to come up with newer ways to service customers ‘on the go’. General health & fitness apps have become a lucrative niche on its own. Many ‘Wellness’ and ‘self-diagnostic’ customer engagement apps have witnessed a soaring trend in usage rates globally. Among a long list of patient engagement approaches, these apps are proving to be effective in improving patient satisfaction and building strong emotional connections with brands.
Intelligently designed, content-rich mobile apps can become important tools for insurers, healthcare providers, and medical diagnostic chains to better their customer experience KPIs.
According to McKinsey, patients across the healthcare and diagnostics spectrum are looking for simple and user-friendly tools from their providers. Nearly 89% of doctors are likely to recommend a mobile healthcare app to patients.

Why create your own Mobile Apps
Apps that capitalise on the quick information-snacking habits of its customers can leverage content-rich apps to help resolve patient doubts and immediate concerns without having to connect to medical staff. Even simple & interactive daily behaviour trackers can provide a sense of comfort and be cared for – without having to expend costly resources — allowing the patient to be able to stay on top of managing their own personal wellness goals.
Companies can utilize push notification messages to remind patients about appointments, rewards and offers, seasonal immunizations, special promotions, etc. Personalising messages is equally important to delivering truly unique experiences.
A user-friendly wellness app might just be the motivation patients need to take accountability for their own health needs. Health Trackers enabled with gamification features allows users to set personalised goals and stay informed about lifestyle habits. Tracking progress and rewarding users for accomplishing personal milestones can help build a wellness-minded community.
