Mobile Minute: The Mobile Minute is sponsored by SpiderCloud Wireless. One of the creators of the Uber app is bringing the same idea to healthcare, with an application that lets New Yorkers summon a doctor when they need one. Pager is a new app that will show users a list of available doctors. If the user picks a doctor for an immediate consultation, she should get a call within five minutes. For $40, plus $10 for Pager, the doctor will consult by phone. For $250, plus $50 for Pager, the doctor will make a house call. So far, Pager has just 20 doctors and is available only in Manhattan. |
