How ScienceSoft Ensures HIPAA Compliance?

When ScienceSoft works on a healthcare software project, we engage our in-house regulatory consultants and integrate HIPAA compliance into all development stages to minimize the risk of data breaches.

We sign a Business Associate Agreement with each client to ensure we follow HIPAA guidelines. During the development, we implement role-based access management, multi-factor authentication, and data encryption in transit and at rest and thoroughly document the security practices for future audits. We also develop a risk mitigation plan for medical software usage and review it throughout the project.

Healthcare Software We Develop

Medical software development by ScienceSoft covers the delivery of 50+ app types, including those for cardiology, neurology, mental health, and more.

Our Clients Say

bioAffinity Technologies hired ScienceSoft to help in the development of its automated data analysis software for detection of lung cancer using flow cytometry.

Our project required a large amount of industry specific methodology and algorithms to be implemented into our new software connected to EHR/LIS systems, which the team handled well. They are reliable, thorough, smart, available, extremely good communicators and very friendly.

Working with ScienceSoft was a pleasure from A to Z. Their deep knowledge of the healthcare industry specifics and DICOM standard helped us create the back end of the software for our ultrasound scanner. We are grateful for their can-do attitude, responsiveness, and straightforward communication. RIVANNA already witnessed tangible benefits of our cooperation. We have more projects to come and are looking forward to working with ScienceSoft again.

Star Star Star Star Star

I’ve had six orthopedic surgeries since playing college football and tried every major digital exercise therapy platform on the market. None of them offer the comprehensive and personalized care they claim. Thanks to ScienceSoft’s practical healthcare IT expertise, we created a musculoskeletal therapy platform that can be fully customized and reflect the needs of each program member.

Star Star Star Star Star

We worked with ScienceSoft on the refactoring and modernization of our telehealth web portal and a cross-platform patient application. We are thankful for the meticulous and value-driven approach of ScienceSoft’s team. They created comprehensive project documentation, feature lists, and worked out thorough recommendations to help us improve the stability and performance of our solution.

Technologies We Use

What Makes ScienceSoft’s Medical Software Stand Out

Advanced functionality tailored to your needs

Experts in AI, IoMT, data analytics, image analysis, VR/AR, blockchain, and other advanced techs, we can build software of any complexity and adjust the functionality to the needs of various medical specialties.

Accelerated software delivery

We ensure fast MVP launch and frequent software releases due to the Agile approach, established CI/CD and DevOps practices, and a feasible share of testing automation.

Impregnable security and compliance

An ISO 27001-certified company, we develop reliable and secure software in line with OWASP recommendations. Our in-house cybersecurity experts and healthcare regulatory consultants ensure full PHI protection and compliance at all stages.

Seamless integration with other software and devices

To make sure our software is convenient for end users, we integrate it with medical devices using BLE, Bluetooth, WiFi, 4G, etc. We enable electronic data interchange (EDI) and integrate medical software using HL7 v.2, HL7 v.3, XDS/XDS-I, and other standards.

FAQ about Healthcare Software Development Services

Can we discuss my healthcare software project if I have just a high-level concept in mind?

Sure! Just share your idea with us, and our healthcare consultants will help transform it into a solid concept and later into a working solution, just like we've done for 150+ other healthcare IT projects.

How much does healthcare software development cost?

The costs range greatly — from $60,000 to $2,000,000 — depending on the functional scope of the healthcare solution you have in mind. You are welcome to use our free cost calculator tool to get a tailored quote for your solution.

Can I rely on your team to maintain data confidentiality?

Yes, of course. We understand the importance of privacy and are ready to sign an NDA even before an introductory call. We can also sign a business associate agreement if you need to comply with HIPAA requirements.

Will we own the code of the healthcare software?

Yes, you will. According to our service contract, the solution code is in your sole ownership.

How long does it take to start the healthcare project?

We can arrange a project discussion with a healthcare IT expert within the next 1–2 business days after your initial request. The cooperation can start within 1–3 weeks, after we agree on the service and software scope.

I want to outsource my healthcare software development project. How do I get started?

Here's our sample workflow:

  1. You send us a request (via a live chat, our email, or by phone).
  2. We schedule an introductory call to dive into your situation and identify value-adding opportunities you can seize.
  3. You receive a free proposal showcasing the scope of work / technical solution description, deliverables, team composition with a brief explanation of the expected input of each team member, cost estimates, project timelines.
  4. We sign a development service contract that legally fixes our mutual obligations and rights.
  5. You can fully trust us to assemble a project team or can individually talk over the competencies and interview the candidates. Once the team is approved, we are ready to kick off!
