Healthcare app development is focused on gaining tangible results for the customers while ensuring app quality and security. ScienceSoft’s quality management system for medical app development is backed by ISO 13485 certification, proving our workflows are in line with the FDA and the Council of the EU requirements. Here are the main steps we follow: |
|
1
Idea productization, brand design, and project planning
To analyze a customer’s needs and elicit the app requirements, define medical app features, healthcare app project scope, and delivery plan.
2
UX and UI design
To map patient and doctor journeys and make them intuitive, as well as design appealing interface components aimed at high user engagement and retention.
3
Front-end and back-end development
To create the user and the server side of the application based on an iterative approach (the development process is split into 2-4-week iterations). Our healthcare mobile app developers create a first working software version or MVP in 2-4 months.
4
HL7 integration with healthcare systems
To ensure smooth integration between the mobile application and your internal infrastructure, including EHR/EMR, RIS (radiology information system), LIS (laboratory information system), RCM (revenue cycle management), etc.
5
Mobile application testing
To identify defects in mobile medical applications, ensure patient data security, application usability, compliance with healthcare industry regulations (e.g., with HIPAA, HITECH, NCPDP D.0, FDA regulations).
6
Implementation of a mobile healthcare application
To release a mobile medical application into the IT environment of a healthcare organization or a software product company.
7
App maintenance and evolution
To maintain and update the medical application based on the user feedback, create new patient and doctor-facing features, and fix bugs.
Benefits of Custom Healthcare Mobile Apps
Several vendors of packaged medical solutions present mobile versions of their software, yet often these applications just replicate their large-screen brothers, coming out heavy and inconvenient. Instead, our custom software offers you the following benefits:
Task-oriented approach
To deliver easy-to-use software, we pay a special attention to every app’s purpose. Having in mind the requirements of every particular department, we create customized solutions to help your staff fulfil assignments more efficiently.
User-friendly UI/UX design
As healthcare app developers, we create elaborated UX patterns. Thanks to a comprehensive interface and smooth navigation, your employees will perform the needed tasks without going through multiple screens, which is exhausting and time-consuming.
Integration with multiple internal systems
To bring additional value to your organization, we make the mobile application a gateway to other solutions in your infrastructure, including EHR, practice management, scheduling, revenue cycle management and other systems.
Security assurance
As a healthcare mobile app development company, we understand the importance of data protection in healthcare mobile app development. We make sure that only authorized personnel access clinical information – within the scope of their authority.

Technologies We Use for Healthcare App Development Services
We will help you choose a technology adequate to the goals of your mobile healthcare application development project:
iOS and Android
To develop native applications for iOS or Android devices with outstanding user experience and usability.
Cross-platform development
To create applications that run on devices regardless of their operating systems:
- Xamarin offers high app performance and near-native UI.
- Cordova allows relatively fast development and deployment.
|
ScienceSoft recommends: Focus on your users when choosing technology for a healthcare app. For example, if you develop an app specifically for hospital nurses who use Android tablets in their work, it’s better to opt for Android-native development. |
Advanced Technologies We're Skilled In
For remote audiovisual patient-doctor communication aimed at disease diagnosing, treatment planning, chronic disease management monitoring, etc.
To automate routine operations of healthcare organizations (e.g., asset tracking, patients’ vitals monitoring) using a network of smart devices connected to a cloud server.
To train medical specialists (e.g., using surgery simulation, medical equipment use training, anatomy training), carry out patient rehabilitation, physical therapy, etc.
To collect medical and operational data (e.g., patient outcomes, patient-generated health data, costs per patient), analyze it, and draw insights that help optimize the care delivery process, treatment efficiency, decrease health risks and complications, etc.
