Business Challenge
The client’s company is focused on the development of telehealth software solutions for different purposes on the market. The customer came up with the idea to create a revolutionary medical platform. E-health suppliers will be able to connect to this solution to use different parts of the functionality of the software. From a short-term perspective, the client planned to create a telehealth solution for multidisciplinary remote care offering a wide range of measuring devices. From a long-term perspective, the customer wanted to become the recognized professional provider of telemedicine solutions with the best up-to-date sensors and AI algorithms.
Solution
The engineering team’s main goal was the development of the healthcare app project from scratch. As the first step, the software developers had the task of implementing the MVP of the telemedicine app to enter the market. After the successful creation of the MVP and its release at the end of April 2022 team was able to move on to the second stage – the development of the additional functionality to extend the software capabilities to meet the requests of current interested companies and to attract new potential customers.
In brief, the first MVP version of the .NET/Angular healthcare solution proposes the following options:
- Video communication is part of the telemedicine application that allows patients to have live conversations with their doctors.
- The app transforms the data to create the invoice for another system and after this, the doctor receives the link with all the needed information
Additionally, the next releases of the application included the following:
- The application is available to use from mobile devices and tablets
- Feature for creating dynamic graphs (widgets) with information about the patient’s condition, which is automatically obtained from various certified home-use medical devices (pressure, oxygen in the blood, body weight, heart rate, etc.)
- Feature for auditing user actions while using the app (who and when changed/added/deleted records, logged in or out of the system, etc.)
- Integration with third-party resources that provide data about the patient from wrist devices connected to the phone (Apple Watch, Samsung watch, MI band, etc.) is in development phase.
In short, the responsibilities/tasks of the Chudovo software development team:
- Telemedicine app development of remote patient monitoring app project from scratch
- Participation in architecture development and design
- Front-end and back-end software development of features
- CI/CD configuration
The suppliers of e-solutions can join in the medical area the developed platform if they meet HL7 criteria. After connecting they get access to the new applications and functionality. The customers can also propose new modules, devices, etc. The platform has a modular architecture that makes it flexible and scalable. It can be easily integrated into e-health ecosystems. The customers can decide which services they want to activate and use.
Business Impact
The stage of MVP implementation of the healthcare software solution took a few months. After the release, the customer began to promote and advertise his product in different ways to various e-health providers, including but not limited to various start-up exhibitions and healthtech events. During the marketing period, further product development did not stop. Chudovo continued the work on the business features and made stable releases of new versions of the application. After the promotion, the customer received positive feedback from the market and signed contracts with several interested companies. After all the customer plans to increase the team and extend the functionality of the telehealth software.

Telemedicine Platform Development Costs
Telemedicine application is the solution that enables remote medical services and allows virtual patient consultations with healthcare professionals through video calls, chats, voice messaging, etc. Apps for remote care eliminate the need for in-person visits to healthcare institutions and ensure a decent level of treatment for the patients.
Development Costs
The development costs of telehealth solutions commonly lie between the following ranges: $120.000-$200.000+. However, the cost of the development of the telemedicine app may vary depending on the following factors:
- The technology stack that will be used for the implementation of the telemedicine platform
- The complexity of the telemedicine app itself and the required features
- Supported platforms (telemedicine web app, telehealth mobile app, or both)
- Requirements for integrations (for insurance, integration with EHR, laboratory information systems, appointment scheduling solutions, etc.)
- Additional requirements to the telemedicine system scalability, performance, and others.
- Post-development support and maintenance of the telehealth application
Implementation Time
The common time for telemedicine app implementation with basic features is 5-7 months. However, the duration of the project depends on all the factors that are shown above.
Core Features of the Telemedicine Platforms
Telehealth apps have different interpretations and feature sets. Although, the most common features of these solutions are the following:
- Booking appointments and scheduling management
- Patient communication with the healthcare providers (in-app chat & file sharing, real-time video sessions, etc.)
- Payment, billing & insurance verification
- E-Prescription management & treatment planning
- Symptom tracking and data synchronization from wearables
- Feedback and ratings
- Notifications and reminders
- Analytics and reporting features.
- Compliance with the standards and enhanced security
- Dedicated software development team delivered web and mobile version of telehealth solution for the customer
- Customer signed the agreements with several e-health suppliers that are interested in the platform
- Customer continues the .NET/Angular software development, makes plans for the next quarters for the product extension
