Healthcare app development with HIPAA built in from day one.

HIPAA-compliant mobile and web apps for medical practices, clinics, and health systems. Patient portals, telemedicine, EHR integrations, and remote patient monitoring — built to the Technical Safeguard standard.

Generic app developers build healthcare apps without understanding HIPAA.

The real problem

A healthcare app that handles patient data without HIPAA Technical Safeguards isn't just a liability — it's a reportable breach waiting to happen. Most development shops don't know what they don't know about HIPAA compliance.

We start every healthcare app project with a Security Rule gap analysis. Architecture, encryption, access controls, audit logging, and data flows are designed before a line of code is written.

Healthcare apps built to the Technical Safeguard standard.

What's included

Every capability — from EHR integrations to telemedicine video — is implemented with HIPAA Technical Safeguards as the non-negotiable foundation.

Start your project

01

HIPAA technical safeguards

Every healthcare app we build includes HIPAA Technical Safeguard requirements: end-to-end encryption, access controls by role, automatic logoff, audit logs, and data integrity controls.

02

EHR / EMR API integrations

We integrate with Epic (FHIR R4), Athenahealth, NextGen, Cerner, and other major EHR systems via their developer APIs. Bidirectional data sync for appointment scheduling, lab results, and medication management.

03

Patient portal apps

Custom-branded patient portal apps for iOS and Android. Appointment booking, test result notifications, secure provider messaging, prescription refill requests, and billing — all HIPAA-compliant.

04

Telemedicine platform development

Build your own telemedicine capability instead of paying per-visit fees to third-party platforms. HIPAA-compliant video sessions, secure messaging, e-prescribing integrations, and custom provider workflows.

05

Appointment & medication reminders

Reduce no-show rates and improve medication adherence with automated reminder apps. HIPAA-compliant push notifications, SMS (with patient consent), and in-app messaging.

06

Wearable & IoT data ingestion

Connect Apple Health, Google Fit, and medical-grade wearables (Dexcom, Withings, Omron) to your care platform. Structured data pipelines for RPM (Remote Patient Monitoring) use cases.

What you get at each level

Investment

The difference between an app that generates revenue and one that collects dust isn't the budget — it's whether the team building it understood your problem well enough to solve it.

Healthcare app development questions

FAQ
What HIPAA requirements apply to mobile healthcare apps?

Healthcare apps that create, receive, maintain, or transmit ePHI (electronic Protected Health Information) are covered by HIPAA's Technical Safeguards rule. This requires: unique user identification, automatic logoff after inactivity, encryption of data in transit and at rest, audit logging of all ePHI access and modification, and integrity controls to prevent unauthorized alteration.

Which EHR systems do you have experience integrating?

We have built integrations with Epic (FHIR R4 API), Athenahealth (REST API), NextGen, Kareo, AdvancedMD, and Cerner. Each EHR vendor has different API capabilities, approval processes, and developer program requirements. We conduct an integration feasibility review before scoping.

How do you handle the HIPAA Security Rule gap analysis before building?

Before writing code, we conduct a Security Rule gap analysis: identifying what ePHI the app will handle, mapping data flows, assessing risks, and documenting safeguards. This becomes the foundation for architecture decisions and is documented in a Risk Analysis report — which HIPAA requires organizations to maintain.

Can you build a telemedicine app that complies with state telehealth laws?

Yes. In addition to HIPAA compliance, telemedicine apps must address state-specific telehealth practice standards, licensure requirements, and prescribing regulations. We build with these constraints in mind and recommend legal review of state-specific requirements before launch.
