Description
With the rapid growth of mobile technology, healthcare delivery has undergone a significant transformation, enabling new approaches to patient monitoring, medical data management, and personalized care. This project introduces SearchCare, a smart healthcare mobile application developed to serve as a centralized platform that integrates symptom checking, doctor consultation booking, medicine purchasing, and lifestyle health management. Designed for both urban and rural populations, the app leverages cloud infrastructure and artificial intelligence to provide real-time access to verified medical services. Key modules such as role-based dashboards for patients, doctors, and administrators, an AI-powered symptom-disease prediction system, and Firebase-backed authentication and data storage have been successfully implemented. The system also supports secure medical record handling, geolocation-based provider search, and in-app notifications. More than 80% of users rated the SearchCare app's features as simple to use and pertinent to their healthcare needs, according to the system review, which also reveals that most users regarded the software to be visually appealing, effective, and user-friendly. High levels of satisfaction with the app's usability, functionality, and design suggest that users have a satisfying and enjoyable experience. With these completed features, SearchCare demonstrates strong potential in improving healthcare accessibility, enhancing user experience, and contributing to the digital transformation of Malaysia’s health sector.
