Benefits for students of Software engineering´s matter and the Community with the Development of a Mobile Application of Medical Services. RIDE. Rev. Iberoam. Investig. Desarro. Educ [online]. 2020, vol.11, n.21, e044.  Epub 23-Abr-2021. ISSN 2007-7467.  https://doi.org/10.23913/ride.v11i21.773.

In the present work, the development of an application called "medical attention system" is presented. It was was created in order to reduce time on care, costs and patients transfer from their homes or workplace. In this sense, this article shows the application design for Android and iOS operating systems. The application has a telephone directory with emergency numbers, laboratories and health institutions. Using geolocation, users are able to know which doctors are close to their location, within a five kilometers radius. It also offers an asynchronous message service between patients and doctors. Through the application, users can access their prescription and download it once they have paid for their consultation service.

To validate the implementation It was identified in a diagnostic sample of 50 participants. That 60\% invest up to four hours for their medical care between moving of from home and consultation time. We realized that more than 80\% would use an application mobile to receive medical attention, and 50\% of the sample invests, between consultation and transfer, two minimum wages *, besides the spending time that they invest for their care. In the usability study, eight questions were used with a liker scale and the participants were satisfied with the usability of the application, resulting in a set of 85 percent with easy and very easy answers.

The Medical Attention System was developed to provide users with new technological tools. This application significantly reduces time spent and resources, moving of from home or any place else and medical appointments in the care of diseases with basic diagnostic tables and brings patients closer to Doctors for deeper diagnoses.
