Any app handling PHI (Protected Health Information) in the US must be HIPAA compliant. This means encrypted storage, audit logs, Business Associate Agreements with all vendors, and access controls. Add 20–30% to your development budget for compliance.
Telemedicine providers must be licensed in each state where they practice. Your app can facilitate the consultation, but the compliance burden is on the provider. Make this explicit in your terms of service.
Medical consultations require rock-solid video quality. Use Twilio Video or Daily.co — both have HIPAA BAAs — rather than building WebRTC from scratch.
Rough estimates per feature. Our fixed-price MVP bundles all of these — see the full Healthcare App cost guide.

We ship production-ready healthcare app MVPs in 3–8 weeks at a fixed price. No hourly billing, no scope creep surprises.
A telemedicine MVP (booking, video, messaging, records) costs $25,000–$60,000 with compliance infrastructure included. Enterprise EMR-integrated platforms cost $200,000+.
If you handle any US patient health data, yes. This affects your database vendor (Supabase offers HIPAA BAAs), your video provider (Twilio, Daily.co), your email vendor, and your infrastructure. We've built HIPAA-compliant apps before.
