Major Highlights of the Week

NPI Requirement
The app's requirement for a U.S. NPI number excludes many healthcare professionals, such as international physicians and non-physician roles, from accessing the platform. This limitation is seen as a significant barrier to entry for a broader audience of medical professionals.
As a veterinarian, I can't access the app because I don't have an NPI number.
Registration Issues
Users experience technical difficulties during the registration process, where valid NPI numbers are not recognized, preventing account creation. This issue frustrates potential users who are unable to access the app despite meeting the professional criteria.
I entered my real NPI number, but the app says it can't be recognized.
Server Overload
High demand leads to server crashes, limiting the number of queries users can make and rendering the app's functionality unreliable during peak times. This technical limitation undermines the app's utility as a dependable clinical decision support tool.
I can only ask 1-3 questions before the app crashes due to high traffic.
Credential Reverification
Frequent requests for users to reverify their credentials disrupt the user experience, causing frustration and inefficiency. This repetitive verification process is seen as an unnecessary hurdle for regular users.
I have to reverify my credentials a few times a week, which is annoying.
Content Storage
The absence of a feature to save and organize previously accessed articles and responses makes it cumbersome for users to reference past information. A library feature with note-taking capabilities is highly desired for better information management.

I really love OE and it helps in plenty of clinical scenarios. I especially love being able to read journal articles cited. My one complaint is that there is not a saved articles library feature. Having a library feature would be great.

Trying to sign up, but unfortunately, I can’t. I’m entering my NPI number, but it just says it can’t be recognized which makes no sense since it is my real NPI. Would be good to hear from their team so it can be remedied.
