Healthcare software development in Dallas, Texas

What does a healthcare software development company in Dallas build?

Hipaasoft designs and builds HIPAA-compliant software for medical groups, specialty practices, ambulatory surgery centers, and health-tech startups across Dallas–Fort Worth. We build native iOS and Android apps, web portals for patients and staff, custom EHRs shaped around a specialty's workflow, and the HL7 and FHIR integrations that connect all of it to the EHRs, labs, and billing systems a practice already depends on. Unlike a general software development company, we only build healthcare software, so Texas-specific requirements such as HB 300 are part of the plan from the first conversation rather than a surprise during legal review. Most of our work is remote, with regular check-ins and working software to review each week, and we meet Dallas clients in person by arrangement for discovery workshops, workflow observation, or launch support. Encryption, role-based access, and audit logging are built in from the first commit.

What does Texas HB 300 add on top of HIPAA?

Texas's medical records privacy law, expanded by House Bill 300 in 2011, reaches further than HIPAA in ways that land directly in software. Its definition of a covered entity is broader: beyond providers and health plans, it can reach anyone who assembles, stores, or transmits protected health information, which is why vendors handling Texas patients' data need to take it seriously. It requires workforce training on state and federal privacy law within 90 days of hire. And when a patient asks for their electronic health record, it sets a 15-business-day deadline.

For a Dallas practice, those rules become concrete features: training records tied to user accounts, a records-request workflow with the deadline visible, and audit trails showing who opened a chart and when. We build them in by default for Texas clients. This is an overview, not legal advice; your counsel should confirm how the law applies to your organization.

How do you integrate with Epic at a DFW health system?

Carefully, and through the front door. UT Southwestern Medical Center runs Epic, and many independent Dallas practices refer patients into, or receive them from, an Epic-based system. Epic offers FHIR APIs and established HL7 interfaces, but access runs through the health system's own integration and security review, which can take longer than the development itself. We handle the technical build of your Epic integration and help you prepare for that review, so referrals, results, and visit summaries move between systems without anyone re-keying them.

Why hire a healthcare-only team over a general Dallas software firm?

Dallas has no shortage of capable software firms, and for most apps a generalist is fine. Healthcare is different because the hard parts don't show up in a mockup: who can see which patient's data, what gets logged when they do, which cloud services will sign a business associate agreement, and how clinical data is modeled so it can move to another system later. A team learning those rules on your project learns them on your budget. We apply them to every build, whatever the specialty, from behavioral health to dental, so your team spends its time on the product decisions only you can make.
