Built a healthcare app with ZenCoder?
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 ZenCoder apps
Building a healthcare app with ZenCoder 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 ZenCoder healthcare app
Common ZenCoder issues we fix
Beyond healthcare app-specific issues, these are ZenCoder patterns we commonly fix.
Automated reviews miss context-specific security requirements
ZenCoder's automated code reviews apply generic security heuristics. They can miss security risks specific to your domain — healthcare data handling, financial regulations, or multi-tenant isolation requirements.
Generated implementations follow generic patterns, not project conventions
ZenCoder implements features using widely-used patterns from its training rather than the specific conventions, abstractions, and service layers established in your codebase.
Refactored code may break runtime behavior
Automated refactoring changes function signatures, variable names, and module boundaries. Without comprehensive test coverage, these changes can introduce regressions that aren't caught until production.
Review feedback applied without full context
When ZenCoder applies code review suggestions autonomously, it can address the feedback literally without considering the broader implications of the change on related modules.

Frequently asked questions
Can I build a healthcare app with ZenCoder?
ZenCoder 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 ZenCoder leave in healthcare apps?
Common issues include: automated reviews miss context-specific security requirements, generated implementations follow generic patterns, not project conventions, refactored code may break runtime behavior. For a healthcare app specifically, these issues are compounded by the need for hipaa-compliant data handling.
How do I make my ZenCoder healthcare app production-ready?
Start with our code audit ($19) to get a clear picture of what needs fixing. For most ZenCoder-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 ZenCoder-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.
