With fitness trackers and smart medical devices becoming mainstream, the mobile healthcare market will only continue to grow and flourish.
Whether you are looking to bring increased efficiencies to the medical industry, allow virtual consultations for your patients, or invent the next ‘big’ fitness app, Red C has the depth of experience to create an industry-leading healthcare app for you.
iOS’ closed ecosystem and strict regulations ensure it is far more secure and is thus optimal for applications containing sensitive user data. Most iPhones now (especially newer models) support TouchID or FaceID, bringing another level of security and privacy to the login process, which we would highly recommend implementing. Apple’s HealthKit allows secure sharing between apps and hardware of personal biometric data which is an excellent asset for Medical apps.
Android is open-source, meaning it offers more flexibility enabling you to customise your healthcare software by incorporating features that your audience would like to see or benefit from. Red C has extensive experience in developing Android medical software for both mobile handsets and tablets. With some of the highest-spec handsets on the market, Android is an essential platform for healthcare applications.
Video consultations have revolutionised the way doctor-patient connectivity works, particularly for those living in remote areas, as well as fragile and elderly patients or patients unable to travel due to health difficulties. With video consultations, these individuals now enjoy improved access to healthcare services from the comfort of their own homes. Red C’s Healthcare App Development team has plenty of experience in this field, having partnered with Psyma to develop one of the first mental health mobile apps in the UK. Psyma offers psychological therapy through live video consultations, ensuring that help and advice are private, convenient and accessible.
Red C has the experience to develop an entire medical platform, facilitating a huge increase in efficiency from patient appointment booking to consultation notes and payment. We partnered with Consentz to build a bespoke clinic management platform. Using this cloud based solution, practitioners can conduct consultations using an iPad app. All stages of the consultation from the initial enquiry to managing medication and invoicing are seamlessly managed through the system which stores patient data securely.
Medical professionals are already stretched and often don’t have access to a computer whilst working on the wards, so keeping up to date with the latest training can be a challenge. Red C worked with Barts Health to create ePCD, a Continual Professional Development app that enables NHS staff to complete the latest training modules, replacing a previously outdated paper-based system.
For medical software, we offer several levels of support with differing Service Level Agreements to suit your budget and requirements.
Healthcare applications need to implement the highest level of security practices and user privacy, so we ensure that all of our software encrypts personal data at rest and complies with GDPR regulations. Red C are Cyber Essentials certified and GDPR compliant. We test our server and app code against the Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) and recommend a penetration test by a registered third party.
