Hi PH! Telemedicine is changing healthcare. It's amazing to think how technology, properly used, can help patients and providers. Some use cases: - Easier primary care access - Quality, affordable mental healthcare - Elder services and geriatric care - Collaboration between primary care and specialists - Streamlined prescriptions, incl. birth control - Better provider dashboard tools - And more We've designed a HIPAA compliant video chat widget that takes 2 lines of code to add. ๐Ÿ” Compliant. Built to be U.S. healthcare compliant from the ground up. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฝ Easy. 2 lines of code to embed. ๐Ÿ‘‰Clear. https://docs.daily.co/hipaa โœ… Affordable. It requires our $199/mo upgrade. We'll set your team up with a 30-day free trial, to test. The context: โš ๏ธ First and foremost in developing healthcare tools is security and privacy. Globally, there are country-specific, strict guidelines to protect patience data. In the U.S., healthcare developers must abide by the guidelines of HIPAA. (That's the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act.) Compliance is a big challenge. It's complex and expensive โ€” live video compliance typically takes thousands of dollars. At Daily.co, we make live video APIs so any team can add high quality, secure video to their website or app. Our goal is to open up video to any team. We believe this with healthcare โ€” there is so much to do to improve care; working with video should not be the barrier. We built an API version where we do not log any personal data, at all. Key info: https://www.daily.co/blog/announ... https://www.daily.co/blog/hipaa-... https://docs.daily.co/docs/hipaa Check out the blog posts and docs for important technical details. The process they lay out is straightforward: - Sign up and get an API key, https://daily.co - Contact us to turn on compliance. (We'll turn on your free trial.) - Use our JS wrapper library to embed the calls. Because it's built from the ground up to be compliant, we will sign a Business Associate Agreement. (That's the legal document provided by the vendor, to satisfy HIPAA adherence.) Of course, this is U.S. compliance! One reason we are launching this on PH is to hear from healthcare makers elsewhere in the world. It is a thorough process to abide by security guidelines; we are glad always for any user input. Let us know what we can answer!
