Telehealth apps are used to provide remote healthcare delivery via video calls, messages, file exchange, and vitals tracking. With 150+ healthcare IT projects, ScienceSoft builds SaaS telemedicine products and develops custom telehealth apps for hospitals, practices, nursing homes, and more. Custom telemedicine apps offer features tailored to specific medical specialties, SaMD functionality, seamless integration with existing healthcare systems, and compliance not only with global but also with local regulations.

Types of Telemedicine Apps We Deliver

To help treat patients with conditions like diabetes, COPD, cardiovascular diseases, etc., a telehealth app features:

  • Regular online check-ups using audiovisual communication.
  • Remote patient monitoring with connected medical devices (e.g., glucose meter, ECG patch) or biosensors measuring vitals.
  • Health log with symptoms and vitals.
  • Patients’ health data analytics to identify vitals abnormalities, early symptoms of complications, etc.
  • Notifications on medications (for patients), alerts on detected abnormalities or risks of complications.

Primary care telehealth apps allow doctors to:

  • Conduct virtual first-time appointments.
  • Plan the treatment of uncomplicated cases (e.g., mild colds, allergies without complications, indigestion), prescribe medications, and monitor a patient’s progress.
  • Schedule screenings, analyses, consultations with other specialists for a wellness exam and conduct follow-ups on the results.

Telehealth apps for providing acute care (e.g., for stroke care in remote/understaffed hospitals) include the following functionality:

  • Videoconferencing for emergency consultations.
  • Clear UX and intuitive user journeys for doctors.
  • Smooth integrations with relevant software (EHR, LIS, RIS, etc.) for streamlined data access.
  • Advanced diagnostics features (e.g., AI-driven medical image analysis, VR-based surgery planning).

Telehealth apps are used for nursing care delivery in:

  • Preoperative and postoperative patient care.
  • Chronic disease management.
  • Home care for elderly people.
  • Pregnancy monitoring and newborn care.
  • Mental health care.

DTx solutions utilize telehealth technologies to:

  • Prevent diseases (e.g., apps for patients with prediabetes, atrial fibrillation).
  • Help manage diseases and their symptoms (e.g., deliver attention improving therapy for patients with Alzheimer’s syndrome, monitor asthma triggers).

PT and rehabilitation telehealth apps aim at:

  • Rehabilitation of motor and cognitive functions after injuries and surgeries.
  • Treating chronic orthopedic and neurological conditions (e.g., arthritis, Parkinson’s syndrome).
  • Delivering remote physical therapy for athletes.

Teleneurology apps help:

  • Monitor and guide patients with chronic neurological diseases (e.g., multiple sclerosis, Tourette syndrome).
  • Monitor and manage the recovery process of patients with neurological injuries.
  • Provide emergency care departments with online neurological consultations on the treatment of acute conditions (e.g., ischemic stroke).

Telemental app features:

  • One-on-one or group online behavioral therapy sessions.
  • Patient mental condition assessment.
  • 24/7 patient-doctor chat.
  • Online chats for peer support groups for patients.
  • Prescription renewal/refilling and medication intake monitoring.

We create solutions for:

  • Pediatric care delivery to children with chronic conditions or requiring primary care.
  • Inpatient care teleconsultations between an on-site pediatrician and a remote pediatric specialist.
  • Outpatient pediatric care teleconsultations (e.g., for pediatric dermatology).
  • Pediatric care delivery to child care centers, preschools, schools, group homes, summer camps, and juvenile detention centers.

Rural telehealth software allows patients to:

  • Request emergency care online.
  • Remote access to all major medical services, e.g., primary and specialty care, chronic disease management, mental health services.
  • Access a medication plan and renew prescriptions.
  • Visit online rehabilitation sessions.
  • Monitor health via tracking vitals and symptoms, logging medication intake, etc.

Telestroke software we develop may feature:

  • 24/7 audiovisual consultations with a vascular neurologist for remote emergency care teams.
  • Integration with EHR, LIS, etc., for streamlined access to patient health data.
  • Advanced stroke diagnostics and treatment assistance (e.g., t-PA dose calculator, AI-based CT scans analytics).
  • Patient rehabilitation module.
