What we build

We build telemedicine apps end-to-end — patient onboarding, scheduling, encrypted video, e-prescription, payment, and synchronisation with the EHR you actually use in clinic. First production release in 12–16 weeks; HIPAA architecture from day one; ONC certification workstreams supported on request.

How we run a telehealth build
01 · Problem

Generic video tools don't survive a clinical workflow.

Off-the-shelf video is fine for a meeting. It's not fine for an encounter that has to bill, prescribe, document into the chart, and survive an audit. Clinical-grade telehealth requires real architecture.

  • Patient identity tied to MRN, not email.
  • Encounter notes that flow into the EHR.
  • e-Prescription with EPCS support.
  • Audit logs admissible in compliance review.
02 · Approach

HIPAA-first architecture, then features.

We start with the data model and the threat model. BAA-covered services only, encryption at rest and in flight, least-privilege access, and a documented incident-response plan — before the first screen is wireframed.

  • AWS HIPAA-eligible services as the spine.
  • FHIR R4 contracts for EHR sync.
  • React Native for cross-platform parity.
  • Twilio / Daily / Agora for video — your call.
03 · Outcome

A telehealth product that scales with the practice.

Production release in 12–16 weeks; documented for HIPAA audit; integrated with the EHR before launch; tested with real clinicians; and handed to operations under a managed-services agreement if you want one.

  • iOS · Android · Web on one codebase.
  • EHR-synced encounters from day one.
  • App Store / Play Store submission included.
  • Managed-services handoff, optional.

Case · 2024
Cloud-based-Telehealth-Application
Case · primary care telehealth

White-label telehealth platform for a multi-state primary care group.

Three-state primary care group needed a HIPAA-compliant telehealth product on their own brand — iOS, Android, web — synced to Athena, e-Prescription via Surescripts, and ready for 11,000 patients on launch day.

Production release in 14 weeks, App Store approved in week 16, and on-call clinical operations onboarded in week 18. Now serving 42,000 patients across 11 clinics.

Telemedicine FAQs.

Q-01How long does telemedicine app development take?
For a HIPAA-compliant telehealth product covering video, scheduling, e-prescription, and EHR sync, expect a first production release in 12–16 weeks. App Store / Play Store approval adds 1–2 weeks.
Q-02Is your telemedicine app HIPAA compliant?
Yes. We architect against the HIPAA Security Rule — encryption at rest and in flight, BAA-covered cloud services only, RBAC, audit logs, and a documented incident response plan. We also support HITRUST and SOC 2 Type II workstreams.
Q-03Can it integrate with Epic, Cerner, or Athena?
Yes. We ship bi-directional FHIR R4 integration with Epic, Cerner / Oracle Health, Athena, Allscripts, and eClinicalWorks. We also use Redox and Mirth Connect when the integration map calls for it. See our healthcare IT integration services.
Q-04Do you handle e-Prescription including controlled substances (EPCS)?
Yes — through Surescripts and DrFirst. EPCS-certified workflows for controlled substances, formulary lookup, drug-interaction checks, and pharmacy delivery.
Q-05Can the telehealth app run remote patient monitoring?
Yes. We pair the telehealth app with our remote patient monitoring stack — BLE device pairing, telemetry ingest, threshold alerting, and CPT 99453 / 99454 reimbursement workflows.
Q-06How much does telemedicine app development cost?
An MVP HIPAA-compliant telehealth product typically lands in the USD 80–180k range for a 12–16 week build. Full multi-state platforms with EHR sync, EPCS, RPM, and white-label deployment land USD 200–450k. We provide a fixed-scope quote after a 1-week discovery.
