How we work
Our healthcare app development process, step by step.
The same six steps run on every project we take in Coimbatore, whether it is a five-page website or a multi-vendor platform.
01
Discovery — week 1
We sit with front-desk staff, doctors and patients (in person in Tamil Nadu, on video elsewhere), map the booking, consultation and billing flows and the data you hold, and send a fixed-scope written quote within 48 hours.
02
Design — weeks 2–3
Patient, doctor and admin screens as a clickable prototype, tested with real patients and staff, including consent screens and low-connectivity states.
03
Build — week 3 onwards
Booking, records and payments first, then consultations and integrations, in weekly staging demos with GitHub access from day one.
04
Security and QA — final weeks
Access control, audit logs, encryption and consent flows verified, penetration test, device and network testing, e-prescription format checks.
05
Launch — one clinic first
Pilot with one clinic or department, data migration, staff training, store submission, then rollout across branches.
06
Support — ongoing
30-day warranty, then maintenance from ₹15,000 per month with security patching, backups and a monthly health report.
AI visibility and SEO reach

03
Answer engine ready
llms.txt, FAQ schema and plain-language answers about consultations, fees and insurance, maintained by our AEO specialist team.

05
Health content
Condition and treatment articles reviewed by your doctors, with MedicalWebPage schema and author credentials, the E-E-A-T signals search engines expect in healthcare.
06
Analytics
GA4 and Search Console for the web pages, booking attribution by channel and doctor, and no-show and retention cohorts.
FAQ
Healthcare app development: your questions answered.
How much does healthcare app development cost in India?
Indicatively ₹5–12 lakh for a patient app with booking, records, reminders and payments, ₹6–15 lakh for a telemedicine platform, ₹15–30 lakh for a hospital or multi-clinic suite with doctor and staff apps and HIS integration, and from ₹5 lakh for specialist apps such as pharmacy delivery or lab booking. SpikeSecure confirms every figure in a fixed-scope written quote.
How long does it take to build a healthcare app?
A patient app takes 10–14 weeks, a telemedicine platform 12–16 weeks and a hospital suite 20–32 weeks in phases, with a pilot clinic or department going live first.
Is patient data kept secure and compliant?
Yes. Consent capture, purpose limitation, encryption at rest and in transit, role-based access, audit logs and data-processing agreements in line with the DPDP Act 2023, a penetration test before launch, and HIPAA-style controls for international clients. We never publish or reuse patient data.
Can the app link to ABHA and ABDM?
Yes. We build ABHA creation and linking and keep records in ABDM-compatible formats where you need them, so patients can share records with other providers and your facility can participate in the national digital health ecosystem.
Do you build telemedicine apps that follow the Telemedicine Practice Guidelines?
Yes. Consultation workflows, doctor identification, consent, e-prescription formats and record keeping follow the 2020 guidelines, and recordings happen only with explicit consent.
Can you integrate with our hospital information system?
Yes, through HL7 or the vendor's APIs for patients, appointments, billing and results, plus lab machines where an interface exists, Tally or Zoho Books for accounts and Razorpay or UPI for payments. Integration scope is listed item by item in the quote.
Can you build an app like Practo or Apollo 24|7?
Functionally, yes: doctor search, booking, video consultation, e-prescriptions, pharmacy and lab ordering and records. We build it for your network and brand rather than as a marketplace, unless a marketplace is what you want.
Do you build apps in Tamil and other Indian languages?
Yes. Tamil, Hindi, Kannada, Telugu, Malayalam, Marathi and Bengali patient interfaces, with large-type and voice-friendly layouts for older patients.
Can you add WhatsApp reminders and follow-ups?
Yes, on the official WhatsApp Business API: appointment confirmations and reminders, report-ready notifications, follow-up prompts and review requests, all consent-based, as built for CareSync Health.
Who owns the code and the data?
You do. Source code in your GitHub organisation, cloud, app store and messaging accounts in your name, and patient data in your own databases from day one, with a documented handover.
Do you work with hospitals and startups outside Tamil Nadu and outside India?
Yes. Coimbatore, Chennai and Tiruppur in person; the rest of India remotely with on-site kick-off on request; and clinics and telehealth startups in the US, UK, UAE, GCC, Singapore and Australia remotely, with hosting in your region and invoicing in your currency.
Why is your healthcare app pricing lower than many agencies?
Reusable booking, consultation, records and WhatsApp modules, one Flutter codebase for both stores, an open-source stack, a Coimbatore cost base and fixed-scope quotes. Compliance work is included in the scope rather than sold as an add-on.
