Our Healthcare Web Development Projects
Our Customers Say
bioAffinity Technologies hired ScienceSoft to help in the development of its automated data analysis software for detection of lung cancer using flow cytometry.
Our project required a large amount of industry specific methodology and algorithms to be implemented into our new software connected to EHR/LIS systems, which the team handled well. They are reliable, thorough, smart, available, extremely good communicators and very friendly.
During our cooperation, ScienceSoft proved to have vast expertise in the Healthcare and Life Science industries related to the development of desktop software connected to laboratory equipment, a mobile application, and a data analytics platform.
They bring top-quality talents and deep knowledge of IT technologies and approaches in accordance with ISO 13485 and IEC 62304 standards.
We engaged ScienceSoft to build an Android app that complements our web-based platform for our patients.
They advised and successfully lead the way from end to end through the technical challenges and considerations with development of the app. We have also engaged them to introduce a few enhancements to the app and would certainly consider ScienceSoft as a technology partner in further software development initiatives.
Medical Web Development Process by ScienceSoft
Healthcare web development is a complex process covering all stages of creating the solution – from the idea inception to the launch and support.
1
Business analysis
ScienceSoft’s business analysts with 5-9 years of experience in healthcare start by analyzing the market and defining a competitive advantage of your medical web solution. Then, they gather and define web platform requirements based on your needs, outline the scope of the medical solution, a winning feature set, and estimate costs.
2
UX and UI design
To make the web solution engaging and easy-to-understand for patients, medical staff, etc., our UX designers closely analyze user needs, research market and competitors, map user journeys, design interactive UX wireframes, and conduct user testing. UI designers transform the UX wireframes into a catching interface with animated elements, and create a UI kit.

From Standard to Personalized Functionality
Medical web design is all about planning and developing a feature-rich web solution to achieve unparalleled patient, physician, or client experience.
Content personalization
This patient retention technique can help reengage the web solution users (e.g., patients who visited the facility some time ago). We integrate the following content personalization methods to help you attract new patients and accelerate revenue growth:
- Recently visited section to allow medical web solution users to continue where they left off.
- Geolocation (e.g., to display the closest medical facilities first).
- Personalized promotions in the web solution.
- Loyalty systems with bonus points, cumulative discounts and other incentives.
- Interactive features like diet calculators, ‘slide-to-see’ before and after photos, videos, charts and more.
The web platform personalizes content using patients’ personal information like:
- EHR/EMR health data (data handling is HIPAA-compliant).
- Browsing history from previous entries.
- Current browsing behavior.
- Information about relatives.
Patient engagement tools
Aimed at helping patients get fully involved in their wellbeing activities, our web solutions provide access to reliable medical information and services:
- Information about staff members, featuring a few words about physicians, nurses, etc., their photos, achievements, to help build good rapport between the medical team and the patients.
- Online self-registration options to allow patients to easily check in for an online appointment or schedule a visit.
- Health plans guide to inform patients about their treatment options in a transparent way and lessen the workload on administrative staff.

- Interactive Q&A chat to provide medical web solution’s user with immediate support, improve conversion of visitors, strengthen the bonds with the existing clients.
- Motivation elements with milestones, challenges and achievements to help your patients acquire healthy habits by setting goals.
- Social media integration to help your medical web platform users share their aspirations and wins with friends and family across multiple social media apps.
- Medical quizzes to integrate gamification into the learning process.
- Other custom features.
Embedded patient portal
It’s important for patients to track their health data, treatment progress, examination results, billing information, etc. So, based on our 18 years of experience in custom healthcare software development and medical website development, we create these key features and make sure they are fully compliant with HIPAA, HITECH, ISO 13485 standard, etc.
Web analytics
When filling the web platform with interactive and SEO content, we suggest going beyond the general analytics tools, such as Google Analytics, and gather the following metrics:
- Interest in particular services.
- Patient or user engagement level.
- Personalized content effectiveness.
