Client Introduction

The client is a well-funded, US-based MedTech scale-up (>$15M ARR) focused on managing chronic conditions like hypertension and diabetes. Their vision was to provide healthcare providers with a platform to monitor patients remotely, using data from FDA-approved connected devices (blood pressure cuffs, glucose meters). This would enable timely interventions, reduce hospital readmissions, and improve patient outcomes.

Problem

The client had a strong clinical vision and hardware partners but lacked the in-house expertise to build a secure, scalable, and HIPAA-compliant software platform to tie it all together. They needed to ingest data from various BLE-enabled medical devices, present it clearly to clinicians, and generate alerts for at-risk patients, all while adhering to the strictest data privacy and security regulations.

Key Challenges

HIPAA Compliance

Ensuring every component of the system-from data transmission to storage and access-met rigorous HIPAA security and privacy rules.

Device Interoperability

Reliably collecting data from a variety of third-party medical devices with different Bluetooth protocols.

Real-Time Alerting

Building a rules engine that could process patient data in real-time and trigger critical alerts to care teams without delay.

Clinician Workflow Integration

Designing a web portal that was intuitive for non-technical users (nurses, doctors) and fit seamlessly into their existing workflows.

Our Solution

We assembled a dedicated "Healthcare Interoperability Pod" to build a comprehensive, end-to-end remote patient monitoring (RPM) solution.

📱 Secure Mobile SDK

We developed a mobile SDK for iOS and Android that handled secure Bluetooth pairing, encrypted data transmission, and local data storage.

🛡️ HIPAA-Compliant Cloud Backend

We architected the platform on AWS using HIPAA-eligible services. All Protected Health Information (PHI) was encrypted at rest and in transit, with strict IAM policies and audit logging.

⚙️ Complex Event Processing Engine

We built a real-time data processing engine using AWS Lambda and a time-series database to analyze incoming patient readings against clinician-defined thresholds.

🏥 Clinical Web Portal

We designed and developed a secure, role-based web application for clinicians, featuring a patient dashboard, historical data charts, alert management, and reporting capabilities.

Implementation and Execution

Phase 1 (Weeks 1-4)

Signed a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) to formally establish our role in handling PHI.

Phase 2 (Weeks 5-12)

Conducted a thorough Security Risk Analysis (SRA) at the start of the project.

Phase 3 (Weeks 13-18)

Used a Test-Driven Development (TDD) approach to ensure code quality and reliability.

Phase 4 (Weeks 19-22)

Implemented a full CI/CD pipeline with automated security scanning (SAST/DAST) in every build.

Phase 5 (Week 23)

Worked in close collaboration with the client's Chief Medical Officer to validate clinical workflows.

Phase 6 (Week 24)

Successfully passed a third-party penetration test and HIPAA compliance audit before launch.

Positive Outcome

✅ Successful FDA Clearance

The robust documentation and secure architecture contributed to a smooth FDA clearance process for the client's combined hardware-software system.

📈 Scaled to 50,000+ Patients

The platform has successfully scaled to monitor over 50,000 active patients within the first year of launch.

📉 Reduced Hospital Readmissions

Partner hospitals reported a 18% reduction in readmission rates for patients on the platform.

👍 High Clinician Adoption

The intuitive UI/UX led to a 90%+ adoption rate among targeted clinical teams.

Positive Outcome: HIPAA-Compliant Remote Patient Monitoring platform
