Objective

The client was in need of an app to help people during this COVID-19 outbreak and eliminate inequalities in healthcare among the Black, Latino, and Rural communities in the USA and provide them with an efficient healthcare procedure, to save them the hassle of taking risks and head over to their doctors for appointments. In short, something that could be a revolutionary solution in this newly developed telehealth sector. With the competition heating up, there was a need to bring on board a team that wasn’t just renowned, but combined cutting-edge technology with professional commitment too.

The Big Question

How was this telehealth app supposed to be of help?

The main purpose of this telemedicine app was to deliver perfect healthcare in the hands of every app user. As a HIPAA compliant telehealth app, it empowered its users to take the benefits of live video visits by their Board-certified medical professionals right on their smartphones, computers, or tablets.

Challenges Faced

The biggest challenge in the development of this HIPAA compliant telehealth app was to synchronize the overall operations in order to keep it functioning seamlessly. With patient records and medical history to be stored in the app, security was a high priority.

Some more challenges were- 

  • Maintaining the records of patients and doctors accurately and efficiently.
  • Upload pictures of medical records, prescriptions, etc.
  • Smooth video conferencing feature and interface.
  • An impeccable user experience, from both doctor and patient apps.

Overcoming Challenges

The final solution for the app involved a framework that had perfect security and a seamless interface for both the doctors as well as their patients. Patients could schedule their video appointment by choosing their preferred doctor with 24/7 access from simply anywhere. Moreover, smooth functioning was critical for both Google Play and App Store platforms.

Features of the App

  • No Requirement of Appointments : By just a simple registration process, users can pick their preferred doctor or physician from this HIPAA compliant app.
  • Round The Clock Access From Anywhere : The visit can be conducted from absolutely any location in the world.
  • Cost-effective and economical :The visits are cost-effective and take into account the overall financial crunches presently.
  • Payment Gateway : A secure way to make and receive payments between patients and doctors.
