Where Data Protection Isn't a Feature — It's a Responsibility

Healthcare software has no room for "we'll fix it later." HIPAA compliance, patient data security, clinical workflows — these must be right from day one. Our team has built systems that passed healthcare audits and served real patients.

The Challenge

Healthcare Software Failures Have
Real Consequences

HIPAA Isn't Just Paperwork

A single HIPAA violation can mean $1.5M+ in fines per incident category. Breaches trigger mandatory notifications, OCR investigations, and reputation damage that takes years to recover. Generic agencies learn HIPAA requirements after they've written non-compliant code.

Providers Don't Have Time for Bad UX

Healthcare workers are overwhelmed. Every extra click is time away from patients. Confusing interfaces lead to workarounds, and workarounds lead to errors. In healthcare, user experience isn't a nice-to-have — it's patient safety.

Interoperability Determines Value

Healthcare data trapped in silos is healthcare data wasted. HL7, FHIR, CCD, CCDA — the alphabet soup of healthcare integration is complex but critical. Systems that can't talk to each other can't deliver coordinated care.

"In healthcare, 'move fast and break things' can hurt people. We take patient safety seriously — not because regulators require it, but because it's the right thing to do. Our team has built systems where the stakes were exactly this high."
— Gautam Thapa, CEO
Healthcare Capabilities

Healthcare Systems Our Team Has Built

Deep experience across the healthcare spectrum — from HIPAA compliance to clinical decision support.

HIPAA-Compliant Infrastructure

Compliance built in, not bolted on

HIPAA compliance isn't achieved through policy documents — it's achieved through architecture, encryption, access controls, and audit trails that work. We design systems where compliance is inherent, not an afterthought.

What We Deliver

  • End-to-end encryption (transit and rest)
  • Role-based access control with audit logging
  • Business Associate Agreement (BAA) compliant infrastructure
  • Automated backup and disaster recovery
  • Breach notification procedures
  • Privacy by design principles

Technical Approach

AWS HIPAA-eligible services, encryption key management, comprehensive audit logging, minimum necessary access principles.

Healthcare Interoperability

Connect to systems that actually exist

Healthcare doesn't run on modern APIs — it runs on HL7v2, FHIR (sometimes), and proprietary interfaces. We integrate with the healthcare IT ecosystem as it exists, not as we wish it were.

What We Deliver

  • HL7v2 message integration
  • FHIR R4 API implementation
  • Epic, Cerner, Allscripts connectors
  • Data mapping and transformation
  • Interface engine configuration

Technical Approach

Mirth Connect, HAPI FHIR, custom HL7 parsers, message queuing for reliable delivery.

Telemedicine & Virtual Care

Virtual care that works like in-person care

Telemedicine is more than video calls — it's scheduling, intake, documentation, prescriptions, and follow-up. We build comprehensive virtual care platforms that integrate into clinical workflows.

What We Deliver

  • HIPAA-compliant video conferencing
  • Virtual waiting room experiences
  • Clinical documentation integration
  • E-prescribing integration
  • Asynchronous messaging with patients

Technical Approach

WebRTC with HIPAA-compliant infrastructure, EHR integration via FHIR, secure messaging protocols.

Clinical Decision Support

Help clinicians make better decisions

The best clinical decision support is invisible until needed. We build tools that surface relevant information at the right moment — drug interactions, care gaps, protocol recommendations — without overwhelming already busy providers.

What We Deliver

  • Alert and reminder systems
  • Drug interaction checking
  • Care gap identification
  • Protocol adherence monitoring
  • Clinical analytics dashboards

Technical Approach

Rules engines, clinical knowledge bases, EHR integration for real-time alerts, configurable alert fatigue management.

HIPAA Compliance

HIPAA Is Architecture, Not Checklist

HIPAA compliance requires administrative, physical, and technical safeguards working together. We build all three into your system.

Administrative

  • Access management policies
  • Workforce training requirements
  • Incident response procedures
  • Business associate management

Physical

  • Facility access controls
  • Workstation security
  • Device and media controls

Technical

  • Access controls
  • Audit controls
  • Integrity controls
  • Transmission security
  • Encryption

Key Principle: Minimum Necessary

HIPAA requires that systems only access, use, or disclose the minimum amount of PHI necessary for a specific purpose. We architect role-based access controls that enforce this principle by default — users see only what they need, nothing more.

Technology Stack

HIPAA-Compliant Technology Stack

We choose technologies based on BAA availability, healthcare maturity, and compliance track records.

Cloud

AWS (HIPAA-eligible)Azure Healthcare

Why: BAA-ready, healthcare-specific compliance programs

Backend

Node.jsPythonJava

Why: HIPAA-compliant libraries, strong enterprise support

Databases

PostgreSQLMongoDB (encrypted)

Why: HIPAA-compliant deployment options, encryption at rest

Interoperability

HAPI FHIRMirth Connect

Why: Industry-standard healthcare integration

Video

Twilio (HIPAA)Daily.co

Why: BAA-available, healthcare-grade reliability

Security

AWS KMSHashiCorp Vault

Why: HIPAA-compliant key management, secrets

HIPAA compliance isn't about specific technologies — it's about how you use them. We ensure proper BAAs are in place, encryption is enabled, and access controls are configured correctly.

Compliance Standards

Healthcare Compliance Expertise

Our team has built healthcare systems that passed these audits and certifications.

HIPAA

Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act — the foundation of healthcare data protection

HITECH Act

Strengthened HIPAA enforcement, breach notification requirements, and meaningful use

HITRUST CSF

Health Information Trust Alliance Common Security Framework — comprehensive healthcare security certification

FDA 21 CFR Part 11

Electronic records and signatures for FDA-regulated industries

SOC 2 Type II

Security, availability, and confidentiality controls for SaaS and cloud services

State Regulations

State-specific healthcare privacy laws (California CMIA, Texas HB 300, etc.)

We don't just know the regulations — we've built healthcare systems that passed audits, satisfied regulators, and served real patients. We understand what compliance looks like in practice, not just on paper.
