MedsMinders App & Reviews
NEW Independent Review – “I work in home health and my patients sometimes forget to take their medications. We’ve tried setting alarms on their phones, but that doesn’t remind them of which specific medications or special directions. Do you know how hard it is to try and locate an empty medicine bottle in the house of a man with Alzheimer’s Disease? Talk about a needle and a haystack. This app has really helped since we can put all the special instructions, dosage, the RX #, and pharmacy to reorder the medication. Thanks for the great app! It’s a life saver, literally.” A.W.
Independent review – “I love this app! It really helps me remember to take my meds and vitamins helping me with a my diet/fitness program. Super helpful too when traveling thru different time zones especially when you are on a 12 hour regime. If you need to take a pill every four or so hours, no problem. Just set it and forget it! I use it for my cat too. My cat caregiver never missed a dose!” S.A.

HIPAA Notice
Does the HIPAA Privacy Rule limit an individual’s ability to gather and share family medical history information?
No, it does not limit sharing. The HIPAA Privacy Rule may limit how a covered entity (for example, a health plan or most health care providers) uses or discloses individually identifiable health information, but does not prevent individuals, themselves, from gathering medical information about their family members or from deciding to share this information with family members or others, including their health care providers. Thus, individuals are free to provide their doctors with a complete family medical history or communicate with their doctors about conditions that run in the family.
