Build a HIPAA Compliance App with Glide

HIPAA compliance is an ongoing program — not a one-time project — and most covered entities and business associates struggle to maintain consistent documentation across the seven required administrative safeguards. GlideApps Agency builds HIPAA compliance apps that centralize your privacy and security compliance program, making it manageable for compliance officers at organizations of any size. We've built HIPAA compliance tools for covered entities and business associates across healthcare.

What does building a HIPAA Compliance app include?

Every engagement includes discovery, data architecture, UI/UX design, development, QA, and post-launch support — not just a build-and-handoff.

Discovery & Architecture

Requirements mapping, data modeling, integration planning, and platform-fit assessment before a single screen is built.

UI/UX Design

Wireframes and interactive prototypes designed for your users — not generic templates. Optimized for mobile and desktop.

Development & QA

Built by certified Glide experts with enterprise experience. Rigorous testing across devices, roles, and data volumes.

Launch & Support

User training, documentation, and ongoing maintenance. We don't disappear after deployment.

Key features of your HIPAA Compliance app

Risk Assessment Management

Document and track your annual HIPAA security risk assessment — identifying threats and vulnerabilities, assessing likelihood and impact, and tracking risk mitigation actions through to implementation.

Training Records Tracking

Track HIPAA training completion by workforce member — with role-based training requirements, completion records, and automated alerts for annual retraining — demonstrating your workforce training compliance.

Business Associate Management

Maintain your BAA registry — with agreement status, renewal dates, subcontractor tracking, and breach notification contact information — giving your privacy officer complete visibility into your BA relationships.

Incident & Breach Management

Log potential HIPAA incidents, conduct breach risk assessments using the 4-factor test, document notification decisions, and track notification timelines — maintaining the complete record required by HIPAA.

Who uses a HIPAA Compliance app?

+A physician group with 45 providers uses the app to manage their HIPAA compliance program — annual risk assessments, workforce training records, BAA management, and incident investigations are all documented in the app and ready for OCR review.
+A healthcare IT company manages HIPAA compliance across their BA relationships with 80 covered entity clients — the app tracks BAA status, subcontractor agreements, and breach notification obligations for each client relationship.
+A dental services organization manages HIPAA compliance across 30 practices — the compliance officer monitors training completion, open risk mitigation actions, and incident investigations from headquarters while practice managers handle local compliance tasks.

How much does a HIPAA Compliance app cost?

Projects start at $15,000 for internal business apps. Most clients invest $40,000–$80,000 annually across development, iteration, and support.

Frequently asked questions about HIPAA Compliance apps

Does the app help us with the HIPAA Security Rule's required and addressable specifications?+
Yes. We map all Security Rule specifications into the app — distinguishing required from addressable, documenting your implementation status for each, and tracking your risk-based rationale for addressable specifications you've chosen not to fully implement.
How does the app handle the 60-day breach notification clock?+
When a potential breach is logged, the app tracks the date of discovery and calculates the 60-day notification deadline. Automated alerts notify the privacy officer as the deadline approaches, and notification completion is documented in the record.
Can the app manage compliance for both the Privacy Rule and the Security Rule?+
Yes. We build separate compliance modules for the Privacy Rule (access to PHI, minimum necessary, patient rights) and Security Rule (administrative, physical, and technical safeguards) — integrated into a unified compliance program dashboard.
How does the app support our response to an OCR investigation?+
Your app maintains a complete, timestamped record of your compliance program — risk assessments, training records, policies, incident investigations, and corrective actions. This documentation is the foundation for responding to OCR investigations and demonstrating good faith compliance efforts.
What size organizations benefit most from a custom HIPAA compliance app?+
Organizations with 20–5,000 workforce members who want a structured compliance program but don't need (or can't afford) enterprise GRC software. The app is particularly valuable for multi-site covered entities and business associates with complex BA relationships.

I was impressed with how they could translate complex concepts into tasks, actions, and activities.
