Frequently Asked Questions
How do you ensure HIPAA compliance in your software?
We embed HIPAA compliance into our entire development lifecycle. This includes conducting a Security Risk Analysis (SRA) at the start, implementing technical safeguards like end-to-end encryption and strict access controls, following secure coding practices, and ensuring all data is stored on HIPAA-eligible cloud infrastructure. We also sign a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) for every project.
Can you integrate your solutions with our existing EMR/EHR system?
Absolutely. We have extensive experience integrating with major EMRs like Epic, Cerner, Allscripts, and eClinicalWorks, as well as many smaller systems. We use a combination of standard protocols like HL7 and FHIR, as well as custom APIs, to ensure seamless and secure data flow between your existing systems and the new solutions we build.
What is your experience with FHIR standards?
We are experts in the Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) standard. Our team has built numerous FHIR-native applications, developed custom FHIR APIs, and engineered data transformation pipelines to convert legacy data formats (like HL7v2) into FHIR resources. We ensure all our interoperability solutions are compliant with the latest FHIR R4 and R5 specifications.
How do you handle data security and protect against cyberattacks?
We employ a defense-in-depth, Zero Trust security strategy. This includes regular penetration testing, vulnerability scanning, implementing Web Application Firewalls (WAF), encrypting all data at rest and in transit, enforcing multi-factor authentication (MFA), and maintaining detailed audit logs. Our DevSecOps culture means security is a shared responsibility from day one, not an afterthought.
What is the typical timeline for a custom healthcare application project?
The timeline varies based on complexity, but we prioritize speed-to-value. A Minimum Viable Product (MVP) for a telehealth app or patient portal can often be developed in 3-4 months. A more complex project like an EMR integration or an AI-powered analytics platform might take 6-9 months. We work with you to define a phased rollout that delivers value quickly and iteratively.
How do you ensure the solutions you build are user-friendly for clinicians and patients?
Our process is deeply rooted in human-centered design. We involve clinicians, administrative staff, and patient representatives from the beginning through workshops, interviews, and usability testing. This ensures the final product is not only powerful but also intuitive, reduces administrative burden, and fits seamlessly into existing clinical workflows.
