Abstract
The aim was to present the Saúde Já Curitiba application, which represents a crucial innovation in the transformation of health through technology. Developed by the Municipal Health Department in 2017, the application has evolved into its sixth version, emerging as an integrative platform for health services accessible via mobile devices. During the COVID-19 pandemic, it played a vital role in organizing information and offering services, becoming the main channel for information about vaccination. This is an original study of technological innovation, documenting the development of the application in collaboration with the Smart Cities Institute. Results indicate progressive improvements from the tracking of health units to the integration of services, highlighting the implementation of video calls for telemedicine. The importance of Saúde Já in optimizing health services is emphasized, highlighting the impressive numbers of users and services provided. Its contribution to the transformation of the healthcare model (Health 4.1) stands out and points to future innovations, including the potential development of Artificial Intelligence resources for personalized care and prediction of complications.
