Transforming Healthtech Startups through Technology
Healthtech demands consumer-grade UX and enterprise-grade compliance at the same time. We build telemedicine platforms, EHR integrations (FHIR R4), and patient-facing tools where HIPAA is a design constraint, not an afterthought.
HIPAA Compliance as Architecture, Not Paperwork
We map every data flow in your system to determine what constitutes PHI and where it travels. This drives encryption boundaries, access control decisions, and infrastructure choices.
Our HIPAA architecture pattern includes: encryption at rest (AES-256), in transit (TLS 1.3), field-level encryption for sensitive identifiers, and audit logging that captures every access event without impacting performance.
BAA agreements with AWS, GCP, and every subprocessor are handled upfront. We maintain a template library of BAA-compatible infrastructure configurations so setup takes days, not months.
When your compliance officer or a covered entity asks for evidence, your system produces it: access logs, encryption status, backup verification, and incident response documentation, all generated automatically.
Clinical Workflows That Actually Get Adopted
Healthcare software fails when it adds friction to clinical workflows. We observe how physicians, nurses, and administrators actually work before designing a single screen.
EHR integrations are the hardest part of healthtech. We have production experience with Epic (FHIR R4), Cerner (Millennium), and Allscripts. We know which endpoints work reliably and which require workarounds.
Patient-facing interfaces must serve users from age 18 to 85, across literacy levels. We design with progressive disclosure: simple by default, detailed when needed, accessible to assistive technology throughout.
Telehealth requires more than video: scheduling, intake forms, waiting rooms, provider handoff, session recording (encrypted), and the failover to phone that maintains continuity when bandwidth drops.
