Is it free for my patients to use?
Is this only for Bariatric Surgery?
No. Our apps are perfect for any weight loss program. Your patients can track nutrition, request appointments, track their weight loss, get questions answered, participate in a Fitbit Challenge, create a photo timeline of their success, watch exercise videos, learn about your program, and much more.
How much does it cost?
The App is free in all of the major App stores so that your patients and people considering weight loss surgery can download it for free. We charge you a one time set-up fee and then a monthly fee to keep the App up to date and running smoothly.
What about HIPAA?
Our Apps are HIPAA compliant. The App only shares a user’s name, email, and phone number with your office via encrypted email if the user requests an appointment, RSVP’s to an event or requests further information regarding your services. BariApps has strict policies and procedures that govern our handling of potential PHI.
We proudly use Firehost’s HIPAA compliant servers, perform monthly security audits, and comply with HITECH best practices.
I know nothing about tech, who handles changes to the app, calendar data, etc.?
Can I send push notifications?
How do I communicate with patients who ask questions from the App?
I already have an online support group. Can I use it in my app?
Where do you get the nutritional information?
We’ve partnered with a robust nutrition database that offers over 8,000 common food items directly from the USDA database and over 14,000 packaged foods.
Do I need to have an online seminar?
I want a feature I don't see listed, can you create it?
Yes. Our apps are custom. Often there is no additional cost for custom features. Occasionally, new features require a significant amount of code that will increase your start-up cost. Not all of our features are listed on the features page. Send us an email and we’ll let you know if we can build your feature.
