Healthcare App challenges we solve
Common healthcare app issues in apps built with Augment Code or Cursor.
HIPAA-compliant data handling
Protected health information must be encrypted at rest, encrypted in transit, access-logged, and stored only in HIPAA-compliant infrastructure. AI tools store data in standard databases with no encryption, no access logging, and on hosting providers that may not offer HIPAA-compliant tiers.
Access controls and minimum necessary rule
Healthcare regulations require that users only access the minimum data necessary for their role. A nurse sees different data than a billing clerk. AI-generated auth gives everyone the same access level, which violates the minimum necessary principle.
Audit logging for compliance
Every access to patient data must be logged — who viewed it, when, from where, and what they accessed. These logs must be tamper-proof and retained for six years. AI tools don't generate any audit logging, let alone compliant audit trails.
Telemedicine reliability
Video consultations, real-time messaging, and appointment scheduling must work reliably — a dropped video call during a medical consultation is not just frustrating, it's a patient safety issue. AI tools generate basic WebRTC setup without fallback mechanisms or connection quality monitoring.
Patient data portability
Patients have the right to access and export their health records. Your app needs secure data export, standard health data formats (FHIR, HL7), and the ability for patients to transfer their data. AI tools don't implement any data portability features.
Consent management
Patients must explicitly consent to data collection, sharing, and treatment. This consent must be recorded, revocable, and granular (consent to share with one provider doesn't mean consent to share with all). AI tools don't build consent management systems.

Frequently asked questions
Which is better for healthcare apps: Augment Code or Cursor?
Both can build healthcare apps, but they have different strengths. Augment Code use augment code for large enterprise engineering teams working across complex, multi-service codebases., while Cursor use cursor for teams of any size that want a polished ai ide with strong autocomplete and chat features.. Our code review covers apps built with either tool.
Can you review a healthcare app built with Augment Code or Cursor?
Yes. We review healthcare apps built with any AI coding tool. Our audit covers the specific healthcare app challenges like hipaa-compliant data handling and access controls and minimum necessary rule.
What issues should I watch for in healthcare apps from AI tools?
Common healthcare app issues include hipaa-compliant data handling, access controls and minimum necessary rule, audit logging for compliance. These apply regardless of whether you used Augment Code or Cursor. Our code audit catches all of them.
How do I get my AI-built healthcare app production-ready?
Start with our code audit ($19) — it covers healthcare app-specific issues regardless of which AI tool you used. We check security, architecture, and deployment readiness, then provide a fixed quote for any fixes needed.
