Customer’s Expectations
Our customer expected us to make the system providing the ability of video-conference between the doctor and the patient, Patient Management and Evaluation, and payment function.
The main goals, which the customer followed were:
- to give medical professionals (individuals), doctors, medical practices the opportunity to observe patients, figure out diseases, and prescribe the treatment online;
- to manage patient’s progress remotely;
- to save time on invoicing and dealing with insurances.
The key requirements we had:
- to make a complex integrated service used in homes, hospitals, private physician offices, and other healthcare facilities;
- to make a scalable solution in order to add new features;
- to make a telemedicine solution be HIPAA compliant to protect patient privacy.
Project Description
Based on all the customer’s requirements, the main domain tendencies and market demand we’ve created a complex telemedicine system, which includes:
- Remote patient monitoring (RPM) system (for a doctor and for a patient)
- Admin Panel
- Mobile App
All the parts of the system should be HIPAA compliant that means that technology used for telemedicine services needs to ensure high-level security and prevent any breaches of patient personal health data, provide proper documentation to the patient’s primary care provider, follow their licensing and credentialing guidelines.
