The U.S. Army is exploring the use of mobile devices within the military healthcare system. To date, the Army has implemented programs that employ personal cell phones to remind patients of appointments, to disseminate health and wellness information, and to gather important information from patients that can alert clinicians, in real time, of their status. In addition, at the Walter Reed Army Medical Center (WRAMC), cell phones are being studied as an aid in diabetes management. These programs have been successful, and it is likely that use of cell phones will prove clinically useful in other ways. Research is ongoing into other ways of employing mobile technologies, particularly cell phones, which are already so familiar to most patients.
