HIPAA-Compliant Architecture for a Telehealth Platform
Problem
A telehealth startup preparing to launch needed full HIPAA compliance. Their prototype stored patient records without encryption, video sessions were unencrypted, and third-party analytics tools were capturing Protected Health Information.
Solution
We redesigned the data architecture with field-level PHI encryption, end-to-end encrypted WebRTC video, a comprehensive audit log, compliant third-party integrations, and a Business Associate Agreement process for vendor onboarding.
Measurable Impact
What changed after launch
Platform achieved HIPAA compliance certification prior to launch
12 medical practices onboarded in the first month following certified launch
Zero PHI exposure incidents since launch
Passed all data security reviews from 3 separate partner hospital networks
