My MS Manager app has the ability to connect physicians and members of the healthcare team via the app to share the progress and reports securely.
My MS Manager Ambassador Anna Webber states, "In this world that is increasingly powered by all-things-digital, efficiency and clarity are at the top of my list. Having been diagnosed with MS as a 23-year-old, I wanted to do my best to take control of my health. Having a tool to help me do this has been extremely helpful. The Multiple Sclerosis Association of America's mobile app, My MS Manager, allows me to not only keep track of all of my notes, meds, doctor info, labs, and journals, but also gives me access to local resources, current MS research updates, and so much more. I can now manage my disease with an incredible amount of clarity and efficiency - things I have not had before. A huge thank you to MSAA, for giving me the tools to be in control."
