Our Approach to Custom Healthcare Software Development and Evolution
Custom healthcare software development is centered on the convenience of the end user (a patient, a physician, a nurse, etc.) throughout the process: from planning the functionality and architecture to designing UI and UX, integrating and improving medical software.
1
Planning
ScienceSoft’s business analysts with extensive experience in the healthcare domain will:
- Elicit and analyze functional, operational, legal, and other requirements to create a healthcare software specification.
- Define the healthcare software development project scope and provide a high-level delivery schedule.
- Analyze the potential risks of software development, software use, etc., and develop a risk mitigation action plan.
2
Design
Our team of UX and UI designers will:
- Map user journeys to design intuitive and simple user experience.
- Create attractive software interface elements (buttons, menus, icons, etc.) to achieve a sleek visual design.
3
Development
ScienceSoft’s skilled developers will:
- Deliver the project according to an iterative approach (with 2-4 week iterations).
- Develop an MVP or the first application version with a set of high-priority features to ensure faster ROI.
- Integrate software with a healthcare organization’s IT environment or implement APIs for healthcare software products.
4
Before all major releases of healthcare software, ScienceSoft’s QA engineers conduct:
- Functional testing and integration testing.
- Software compliance and vulnerability assessment, penetration testing.
- Performance testing.
- Usability testing.
5
Launch
ScienceSoft’s project team releases healthcare software into the production environment.
6
Support and maintenance
If required, ScienceSoft healthcare IT support team:
- Monitors and manages the performance of healthcare software.

Healthcare software evolution
If you need to introduce new features, customization capabilities, integrations, ScienceSoft’s healthcare IT team is ready to plan and handle healthcare software evolution.
How to Ensure HIPAA Compliance of the Software?
When ScienceSoft works on a healthcare software project, we integrate HIPAA compliance into all development stages to minimize risks of patient data loss, theft, alteration, and potential financial risks. We sign Business Associate Agreement with each customer to guarantee that we follow HIPAA guidelines. During the development, we implement data security, access management, encryption methods, security practices documentation, etc. We also draw up a risk mitigation plan for medical software usage and review it throughout the project.

Benefits of Custom Medical Software by ScienceSoft
High convenience
of healthcare software for target users due to intuitive UX, sleek UI, and seamless integrations with required software.
Tailored software functionality
covering all the necessary operational areas (e.g., automated patient invoicing, telehealth appointments scheduling and conducting) to back up arising business ideas.
Automated data processing
for patient outcomes, case reporting, receiving reimbursement, and more.
Implementation of advanced features
for faster diagnosing and care delivery (medical image analysis for CT scans; VR and AR for surgery planning, medical education, rehabilitation; patient data analytics; telehealth appointments; AI for patient-facing chatbots, symptoms checkers, etc.).
Accelerated software roll-out to the market
due to fast MVP launch and iterative development enabling to build a customer base at early stages.
Fixed price (FP)
We create a fixed quote for the well-defined healthcare project scope. You pay as the project unfolds, the payments schedule is aligned with the project’s milestones. Usually, this model is used for projects developed according to the Waterfall model.
Time and Materials (T&M)
If the project scope is likely to change, we charge for an actual time spent on healthcare software development by an hourly rate of the outsourced specialists. We issue monthly invoices with reports on completed work. Usually, Agile projects opt for this model.
Time and Materials with a cap (T&M NTE)
This model is similar to the T&M, but in this case, there is a defined maximum total charge.
