CareKit by Apple went live today for all developers



What is CareKit ? 
CareKit is a framework of modules that are being open-sourced to the world.Those modules will enable any health organization with limited resources to stand up an elegant, sophisticated, user-centric health app that can be useful in utilizing all the sensors and connectivity that the iPhone offers as well as connect some of that information to a coach, family member, or doctor, and track the progress of a plan you put into place over time.

CareKit currently includes four modules: CareCard, which helps patients track care plans and action items; Symptom and Measurement Tracker, which helps patients keep a log of their experiences; Insights Dashboard which integrates the care plan data from CareCard with the symptom data from the Symptom and Measurement tracker to create insights about the effectiveness of treatments; and Connect, which helps patients share data with their providers or other caregivers. 

Three groups launching CareKit apps today too: — diabetes management app maker One Drop, medication data aggregation company Iodine, and Glow, which makes a suite of reproductive health apps for women — all made use of the Connect module, although some used other modules as well.
