We design, build, and secure healthcare software the way regulated care demands: protected health information locked down, the HIPAA Security and Privacy Rules engineered in, and a system that stands up to a customer security review. For healthcare providers, payers, digital-health companies, and government health agencies.
HIPAA is not a feature you add at the end. When protected health information (PHI) is involved, the gaps that stall a launch, or trigger a breach, are almost always the same:
Health data unencrypted at rest or in transit, sitting in logs, or readable in the front end. HIPAA expects encryption and safeguards by design.
No role-based access, no "minimum necessary," shared logins. PHI ends up visible to people who should never see it.
The Security Rule requires audit controls. Many systems cannot answer the basic question: who accessed which record, and when?
PHI running on services with no Business Associate Agreement in place, an immediate compliance failure regardless of how good the code is.
No risk analysis, no incident response, no backups or integrity checks. One mistake becomes a reportable breach with real penalties.
A hospital, payer, or partner's security team asks for HIPAA evidence and the project stalls for months.
Start with a fixed-fee readiness assessment. You get a straight answer on where you stand against the HIPAA Security Rule, what it takes to close the gaps, and a fixed quote, before you commit to a larger build.
We are the team enterprises and government agencies trust to build software where security and compliance are non-negotiable. Healthcare is core to that work, not a side line.
A free 30-minute call to understand your system, your PHI, and your timeline.
We review your app and architecture against the HIPAA Security Rule and hand you a prioritized report and a fixed quote.
We close the gaps, stand it up on BAA-backed infrastructure, and keep it compliant if you want us to.
Sthenos Technologies is an EDWOSB/WOSB-certified custom software development firm headquartered in Tysons, VA, with an office in Bethesda, MD (NAICS 541511). We build HIPAA-compliant healthcare software, including EHR/EMR integrations, telehealth, patient portals, and claims systems, for healthcare providers, payers, digital-health companies, and government health agencies, with security and compliance designed in.
Yes. Where we handle protected health information as a business associate, we sign a BAA, and we build on infrastructure that can be covered by one. A BAA in place is a baseline requirement, not an afterthought.
Usually, yes. We start with the readiness assessment, then remediate: encryption, role-based access, audit logging, and BAA-backed hosting. The assessment tells you honestly what is solid and what must be rebuilt.
No. HIPAA compliance is an ongoing program, not a one-time certificate. We build software to the HIPAA Security and Privacy Rules and document it so you can pass a partner or payer security review with confidence.
EHR/EMR integrations (including HL7 and FHIR), telehealth platforms, patient portals, claims and billing systems, care-management tools, and custom applications for providers, payers, and government health programs.
