Built a healthcare app with Devin?
We'll make it production-ready.
Healthcare apps handle protected health information (PHI) — patient records, diagnoses, medications, and medical histories. This data is among the most heavily regulated in any industry, and a breach can result in six-figure fines and criminal liability. AI tools can build patient portals and appointment systems quickly, but they have zero awareness of HIPAA requirements, data handling rules, or healthcare-specific security standards.
Healthcare App challenges in Devin apps
Building a healthcare app with Devin is a great start — but these challenges need attention before launch.
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.
What we check in your Devin healthcare app
Common Devin issues we fix
Beyond healthcare app-specific issues, these are Devin patterns we commonly fix.
Autonomous security decisions
Devin makes security-related decisions without human review — choosing auth strategies, setting permissions, and configuring access controls that may be inadequate.
Compounding architectural errors
When Devin makes an early architectural mistake, it builds subsequent features on top of it. By the time you notice, the issue is deeply embedded in the codebase.
Workarounds instead of fixes
When Devin encounters an error, it sometimes adds workarounds that mask the root cause rather than fixing the underlying issue.
Inefficient retry patterns
Devin's debugging approach sometimes results in retry logic and fallback patterns that hide errors rather than resolving them, impacting performance.

Frequently asked questions
Can I build a healthcare app with Devin?
Devin is a great starting point for a healthcare app. It handles the initial scaffolding well, but healthcare apps have specific requirements — hipaa-compliant data handling and access controls and minimum necessary rule — that need professional attention before launch.
What issues does Devin leave in healthcare apps?
Common issues include: autonomous security decisions, compounding architectural errors, workarounds instead of fixes. For a healthcare app specifically, these issues are compounded by the need for hipaa-compliant data handling.
How do I make my Devin healthcare app production-ready?
Start with our code audit ($19) to get a clear picture of what needs fixing. For most Devin-built healthcare apps, the critical path is: security review, then fixing core flow reliability, then deployment. We provide a fixed quote after the audit.
How much does it cost to fix a Devin-built healthcare app?
Our code audit is $19 and gives you a complete report of issues. Fixes start at $199 with our Fix & Ship plan. For larger healthcare app projects, we provide a custom fixed quote after the audit — no hourly billing.
