A Selection of Successful Software Projects in Healthcare
Speech Recognition Platform
TEAM SIZE
30+ People
DURATION
7 Years (ongoing)
TECHNOLOGIES
Java, Visual Studio, Specflow, Selenium, NUnit, JMeter, Jenkins, Nagios, F5 load balancer, Microsoft Azure, SoftLayer, Amazon Web Services
THE SOFTWARE
This is a complete software development and delivery ecosystem for developers of healthcare solutions who want to embed speech recognition technology into their applications. The platform delivers cloud, network-based, secure speech services and client-side software to support speech-enabled clinical documentation from any application and on any device.
THE SOLUTION
Fortech has been taking part in testing all the components of the software system (Web service, Client SDKs, Cloud), running both manual and automated testing from the beginning of the software development lifecycle through to delivery, with an important contribution from our DevOps team.
Automation testing is completely done by Fortech. Both functional and nonfunctional tests (performance, load, stress, usability, reliability, compatibility) are performed, at three testing levels: integration, acceptance and system testing.
Custom App for Disease Code Generation
TEAM SIZE
3 People
DURATION
2+ Years (ongoing)
TECHNOLOGIES
Android SDK, Ruby on Rails, React Native, React, Java, Retrofit, Realm
THE SOFTWARE
This is a mobile app that finds for each patient the disease code from the International database of disease codes. These codes are then sent to insurance companies. The app links the anatomical parts of the body with the diseases that affect those parts. A physician must press no more than 4 buttons to find the final code.
THE SOLUTION
Fortech has been providing all the software developers, UI specialists and QA engineers to create the MVP for the solution on the Android platform. In addition, we have been creating all the specifications for the data set. Our customer plans to develop with Fortech the full version of the product for both the Android and iOS platforms.
Patient Data Management
TEAM SIZE
3 People
DURATION
4.5 Years (ongoing)
TECHNOLOGIES
C#, .NET, Windows forms, Seal (encryption API), DotNetNuke
THE SOFTWARE
This is a custom suite of software applications (desktop and web, with mobile usage in mind) for storage of patient and clinical data. It connects to the government database, which has records of all citizens and their medical history. The custom-built desktop application enables the creation and sharing of custom medical prescriptions from large volumes of data.
THE SOLUTION
We integrated all the modules of our client’s applications into an umbrella Web application and remodeled a desktop application with new UI to meet modern expectations. This allowed our client to attract a much larger market by selling an integrated solution rather than independent modules. One of the most challenging features we have developed is a tool that allows physicians to sketch the lesions on a skeleton, take pictures of those areas and add notes. Its development required extensive custom Java scripting.
