How long did the platform take to build?

A growing telehealth startup connecting specialists with patients in rural and underserved areas. They had a basic video consultation product but were struggling with:

State-by-state provider licensing compliance
EHR integration for prescription management
Patient retention and engagement
Scalable infrastructure for growing patient volume

[ THE CHALLENGE · 02 ]

The Challenge

No automated provider licensing verification by state

Manual HIPAA compliance checks

No audit trails for patient data access

Missing consent management workflows

Providers spent 15+ minutes per patient on documentation

No integration with major EHR systems

Patient scheduling required phone calls

40% no-show rate for appointments

Platform crashed during peak hours

No offline capability for rural areas with poor connectivity

Manual patient onboarding process
