Build a telemedicine app
without the compliance grind
Video, audio, clinical workflow, cross-state licensure, and ePrescribing — all HIPAA-compliant from the first commit. Most teams ship a pilot in 2–3 weeks.
Video + chat + records
Licensure gating built in
EPCS-ready prescribing
Who builds telemedicine on VertiComply
Telehealth Founders
YC, accelerator, pre-seed
You want to launch a telemedicine pilot in weeks. Compliance is a launch blocker, not a value prop. VertiComply handles HIPAA, state licensure, and ePrescribing so you focus on the clinical workflow.
Multi-State Clinics
Primary care, mental health, specialty
You operate across states with patient travel. You need licensure gating, two-party-consent recording, and EHR sync built in — not bolted on.
Health System Innovation Teams
Hospital systems, payor pilots
You ship internal patient-portal pilots quarterly. VertiComply gives you BAA-covered telemedicine that lives inside your existing IT and security perimeter.
Compliance, handled
The full HIPAA + DEA + state-law stack, generated automatically.
BAA-covered video stack
Twilio, Daily, Vonage, or Zoom for Healthcare — BAA paperwork pre-mapped per vendor.
TLS 1.3 + AES-256 across video, audio, chat, records
Every PHI flow encrypted in transit and at rest with NIST-current ciphers.
Cross-state licensure gate
Every session checks clinician licensure against the patient's state of location.
Two-party consent capture
Recording defaults OFF. Affirmative consent captured for the 11 two-party states.
ePrescribing with EPCS scaffold
Surescripts integration. EPCS NIST IAL2 + two-factor signing for Schedule II–V.
Audit logs per session
Participant joins, recording toggles, EHR sync events, signed prescriptions — six-year retention.
FHIR R4 + Bulk FHIR connector
Charts sync to Epic, athena, and Cerner without custom integration work.
Risk analysis template
§ 164.308(a)(1)(ii)(A)-ready documentation generated per project.
The stack we generate for you
| Component | Role | Generated With |
|---|---|---|
| Video & audio | Live consult, screen share, recording | WebRTC via Twilio / Daily (BAA) |
| Chat & file share | In-session messaging, attachments | TLS 1.3 + AES-256 store |
| Clinical notes | Manual + AI scribe | BAA-covered LLM with zero-retention |
| ePrescribing | Non-controlled + EPCS | Surescripts NCPDP SCRIPT |
| EHR integration | Read/write chart entries | FHIR R4 + Bulk FHIR |
| Identity proofing | EPCS IAL2 + patient ID | ID.me / Persona (BAA) |
| Audit + observability | 6-year retention, OCR-ready | Datadog Enterprise (BAA) |
Build it yourself vs. ship with VertiComply
| Build it yourself | With VertiComply | |
|---|---|---|
| Time to launch | 4–6 months of dev + compliance review | 2–3 weeks from idea to first paying patient |
| BAA paperwork | You chase each vendor separately | Pre-mapped BAA list per generated component |
| Licensure logic | Hand-coded state matrix that drifts | Live licensure database with expiration tracking |
| EPCS workflow | 6+ weeks to set up DEA registration + IAL2 | Scaffold + checklist; you handle DEA registration |
| Audit log compliance | Custom schema, hope it passes OCR | OCR-tested fields per § 164.312(b) |
| Cost of a misstep | OCR settlements average $137k | Defensible architecture documented per project |

Frequently asked questions
Can I ship a telemedicine MVP in weeks instead of months?
Yes. VertiComply generates the full HIPAA-compliant stack — video, chat, records, licensure gate, ePrescribing scaffold — based on your idea. Most teams launch a pilot in 2–3 weeks.
Which video vendors do you support?
Twilio Programmable Video, Daily.co, Vonage, Zoom for Healthcare, and Doxy.me out of the box. Each is BAA-eligible. Self-hosted WebRTC (Pion, mediasoup) is supported for teams that need full control or EU residency.
Do I need DEA registration for ePrescribing?
Only if you prescribe controlled substances (Schedule II–V). VertiComply scaffolds the EPCS workflow including NIST IAL2 identity proofing and two-factor signing — you handle DEA registration separately. Non-controlled prescribing via Surescripts is built in by default.
Will this work for multi-state telemedicine?
Yes. Every session runs through a licensure gate that checks the clinician's state coverage against the patient's current location. We support the Interstate Medical Licensure Compact and per-state direct licensure.
What about international patients?
HIPAA travels with the covered entity, not the patient. If your US clinician sees a patient abroad, HIPAA still applies. GDPR may also apply — VertiComply generates dual-regime architecture for EU patients.
Can I add AI scribing later?
AI scribing is supported on day one with BAA-covered LLM endpoints (OpenAI, Anthropic, Vertex AI, Bedrock, Azure). Zero-retention is configured by default for any AI feature touching PHI.

An engineering guide to building a HIPAA-compliant telemedicine app in 2026. Video stack choices, clinical workflow, cross-state licensure, ePrescribing for controlled substances, and the architecture that ships without an OCR settlement.
Read
A practical 2026 guide to HIPAA compliant AI in healthcare apps. What HIPAA actually requires of LLMs, which AI vendors sign BAAs, where PHI leaks happen, and the architecture that keeps AI features safe — written for builders, not lawyers.
Read
A 2026 engineering guide to HIPAA encryption requirements. What § 164.312(a)(2)(iv) actually demands, which algorithms pass audit, how to architect key management for PHI at rest, in transit, and in use — written for builders, not lawyers.
Read
Most healthcare app audit logs fail HIPAA § 164.312(b) because they miss three specific fields. Here is the exact schema that passes an OCR audit, plus retention rules, immutability patterns, and the 2026 shift toward testable audit controls.

BAA vs HIPAA explained in plain English. What each one actually is, why they are not the same thing, who needs a BAA, when it is required, and what happens if you skip it.
