In a 2013 survey by VisualDx, clinicians reported saving from 14 minutes to 26 minutes each day. Physicians using VisualDx saved an average of 14 minutes per day, PAs saved 19 minutes per day, and NPs saved 26 minutes per day with VisualDx.
Dermatology residents and students saw a 19 percent increase in accurate diagnoses using VisualDx compared to non-use.
General practitioners saw a 34 percent increase in diagnostic accuracy with the app.
Most impressively, non-dermatologists' diagnostic accuracy skyrocketed 120 percent after just 4 minutes of training on VisualDx.
Cellulitis has a diagnostic error rate of 30 percent, costing the United States healthcare system as much as $500 million annually.
A study published in Dermatology Online Journal found that emergency department physicians included a correct cellulitis diagnosis in their differential 50 percent more often when using VisualDx compared to colleagues not using the tool.
There is no shortage of stories telling how VisualDx helped nail down an important diagnosis.
The New York Times Magazine published the story of medical student Amber Bard diagnosing ocular herpes in a toddler, helping avoid complications like corneal scarring or blindness.
