Why Trust Clutch

At Clutch, we believe trust is the foundation of every business relationship. Our mission is to help buyers make confident, data-backed decisions informed by real client experiences.

Every review on Clutch undergoes a rigorous, human-led verification process to make sure it’s valid. Our team of specialists confirms the identity of each reviewer, ensures the project is legitimate, and only publishes reviews that meet our strict criteria.

Verification doesn’t stop at the point of publication. Our Trust & Safety team routinely audits older reviews against our guidelines. When reviews fall short of our standards, we remove them.

We evaluate service providers using a structured methodology that combines:

  • In-depth client interviews and ratings
  • Comprehensive project details
  • Market presence
  • Portfolio examples and industry recognition

This data powers tools like the Leaders Matrix, which helps you compare agencies directly. Our research team curates rankings by weighing verified reviews most heavily, so the most trusted and experienced providers rise to the top.

Using this unique combination of verified client feedback and provider-supplied insights, Clutch distills the most important details into clear, digestible summaries so you have everything you need to make confident, informed decisions quickly.

We take fraud seriously. Providers who violate our guidelines may face lower rankings, restricted visibility, or removal from the platform altogether.

Clutch’s commitment to transparency is ongoing. We’re constantly refining our systems to protect the integrity of reviews and support you in finding the right agency.

U.S. Healthcare App Development FAQs

American firms work under U.S. healthcare regulations—namely HIPAA, HITECH, and FDA guidelines for Class II/III software—giving you built-in compliance and reduced legal risk. These dedicated agencies collaborate in your time zone, streamline stakeholder meetings, and provide on-site support when integrations involve hospital IT departments. Plus, many agencies maintain partnerships with Epic, Cerner, and other dominant electronic medical record (EMR) platforms common across U.S. health systems.

While most focus on clinical providers, many U.S. agencies also build solutions for:

• Health insurance and payers
• Pharmaceutical R&D and clinical trials
• Fitness and wellness brands
• Behavioral health and teletherapy platforms
• Medical device manufacturers seeking companion apps

This cross-industry experience can speed up approvals and shorten learning curves.

  1. Verify HIPAA and, if relevant, FDA SaMD (Software as a Medical Device) expertise.
  2. Ask for case studies with similar patient populations or clinical workflows.
  3. Evaluate security practices—look for SOC 2 Type II or ISO 27001 certifications.
  4. Confirm post-launch support: bug fixes, OS updates, and compliance audits.
  5. Check Clutch reviews for communication style and timeline adherence.

Find trusted and proven healthcare app developers on Clutch. While browsing through the options can feel overwhelming at first, having a set of criteria can help you cut through the clutter much more effectively.

• Vague answers about HIPAA safeguards or lacking a Business Associate Agreement (BAA).
• No experience integrating with leading EMRs or FHIR APIs.
• Overpromising FDA clearance timelines.
• Limited knowledge of accessibility (WCAG) or multilingual support, which can hinder patient adoption.
• Pushback on third-party penetration testing or code audits.

Ignoring these red flags could lead to headaches like regulatory issues and mishaps. Avoid these warning signs as soon as you spot them to spare yourself from trouble.

Rates vary by region and complexity, but Clutch data shows most U.S. healthcare app projects fall into these ranges:

  • Prototype or MVP: $40,000 – $80,000
  • Full-scale patient app with EMR integration: $120,000 – $300,000
  • Ongoing support and FDA documentation: $100 – $200 per hour

Expect higher pricing for features like real-time video, Bluetooth medical device connectivity, or SOC 2-compliant cloud hosting.
