Healthcare App Development
Our healthcare app development team builds patient apps and clinician tools for Canadian clinics, hospital groups, home care providers and health startups. We handle the parts that make health software hard: consent, records integration, secure messaging and the daily workflow of busy staff.
Apps we build for healthcare
- Patient portals for booking, results, forms and secure messages
- Telemedicine apps with scheduled and on-demand video visits
- Appointment booking, waitlists and automated reminders that cut no-shows
- EMR and EHR integration using HL7 and FHIR interfaces
- Medication reminder and adherence apps with refill prompts
- Remote monitoring apps that pull readings from connected devices
Key features
- Multi-factor sign-in and role-based access for patients, clinicians and admin staff
- Encrypted messaging between patients and their care team
- Digital intake forms and consent capture that replace paper at the front desk
- Calendar sync, provider schedules and rules for cancellations and rebooking
- Audit logging of every record view and change
- Accessible interfaces for older patients and low-vision users
Compliance and considerations
Health information in Canada is governed by federal privacy law (PIPEDA) and by provincial health privacy statutes such as Ontario's PHIPA, Alberta's Health Information Act and British Columbia's privacy legislation. In practice that means we plan for data residency in Canada, encryption in transit and at rest, per-user access controls, retention rules and a full audit trail before a single screen is designed. We are developers, not your legal advisors, so we build to the requirements your privacy officer sets and document how the app meets them.
Why healthcare companies choose us
- We design around real clinic workflow, so front desk staff and clinicians adopt the app instead of working around it
- Integration experience with records systems, lab feeds and scheduling software through HL7 and FHIR
- Security work is planned into the build: threat modelling, access controls, logging and support during third-party reviews
- Fixed-scope quotes and milestone billing, so a health project does not drift in cost
- You own all source code, designs and documentation at handover
- Support plans that keep the app compatible as iOS, Android and your records vendor change

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Usually yes. Most Canadian records systems expose an HL7 or FHIR interface, or a vendor API. We start by reviewing what your vendor allows, what data you are permitted to move and who signs off, then build the integration against a test environment before touching live records.
We can host the backend in Canadian cloud regions so records stay in Canada, which is what most clinics and hospital groups require. Storage location, retention and backup rules are agreed in writing during discovery.
Most healthcare projects fall between $50,000 and $199,000. Records integration, role permissions and security review add to the cost compared with a simple consumer app, so we scope those explicitly in the quote.
A focused MVP, for example booking plus reminders plus secure messaging, usually launches in 8 to 12 weeks. A full patient and clinician platform with records integration runs 4 to 7 months.
Yes. Many projects are two apps or one app with separate roles: a patient experience for booking and messages, and a clinician or admin view for schedules, notes and triage. We scope them together so the data model works for both.
