Now that the shake-up at Happtique has called into question their future as a consumer-facing health app curator, it didn’t take long for another company to step up.

Another approach to app curation. Appears to be a sournd approach
"Whereas both Apple and Android only break apps into two categories, the often confusing “health” and “medical,” HealthTap breaks apps into doctor or consumer categories as well as 30 granular categories including calorie counters, period trackers, vaccine reminders, and pregnancy apps. They are tagged with the same tagging system as HealthTap’s Q&A platform, so consumers can move between the two.
Doctors on the HealthTap network have access to an interface where they can scroll through a list of apps and either recommend them or not, and then optionally write a review to explain their choice. Their reviews won’t enter the system until they’ve written at least 30 and those 30 have been looked over by a specially chosen group of physicians in the system that HealthTap refers to as a “medical review board”. After that, doctors will be able to review apps on their own."
