We cover the full IoT delivery cycle. From architecture and device integration to compliance validation and post-launch support, here is what working with Citrusbug looks like in practice.
We build remote patient monitoring software systems that track vital signs, chronic conditions, and post-acute recovery in real time. Our RPM solutions reduce unnecessary hospital readmissions, enable proactive clinical intervention, and give care teams a continuous window into patient status between appointments. Fully HIPAA-compliant and EHR-integrated.
Siloed devices create dangerous gaps in patient data. We connect your medical device ecosystem into a unified IoMT layer so that infusion pumps, cardiac monitors, wearables, and diagnostic equipment feed a single, coherent data stream. We support HL7 FHIR R4, HL7 v2/v3, DICOM, and MQTT protocols, and we build device-agnostic integration layers that scale without vendor lock-in.
Connecting IoT data to your EHR is where most implementations get stuck. We specialize in EHR software development integrations with platforms including Epic, Cerner, and MEDITECH, mapping device data to FHIR-compliant resources and ensuring clean bi-directional data flow. This bridges the gap between connected devices and the clinical record.

Raw IoT data is only useful if it triggers the right action at the right time. We build rule-based and ML-driven alerting systems that surface early warning signals from continuous monitoring streams, enabling clinical teams to intervene before conditions deteriorate. Alerting thresholds are configurable per department, care team, and patient condition profile.
Virtual care is only as reliable as the data feeding it. We build HIPAA-compliant data pipelines that route real-time IoT readings into telehealth platforms, ensuring clinicians in virtual consultations have access to the same quality of data they would have at the bedside. Latency matters. We build for it.
Misplaced equipment costs hospitals time, money, and sometimes patient outcomes. We implement real-time location systems (RTLS) and IoT-based asset tracking for medical equipment, helping operations teams reduce equipment downtime, improve utilization rates, and automate maintenance scheduling.
We use IoT data to trigger automated workflows across nursing stations, pharmacy dispensing, lab order management, and supply chain. This reduces manual data entry burden on clinical staff, lowers the risk of documentation errors, and frees care teams to focus on patients rather than processes.
Continuous monitoring beyond the bedside requires reliable wearable integrations. We connect commercially available wearable devices and custom sensor hardware to clinical data pipelines, normalizing data formats and applying appropriate de-identification before it enters any downstream system.

Schedule a ConsultationHealthcare IoT pricing depends on scope, compliance requirements, integration complexity, and the number of devices and data sources involved. A basic integration typically ranges from $10,000 to $50,000, while a full-scale enterprise system with IoMT infrastructure and multi-site deployments can exceed $100,000.
Share your requirements with us, and we’ll provide a detailed, tailored cost breakdown based on your specific use case, integrations, and compliance needs.
End-to-end encryption (AES-256), access controls, automatic logoff, and audit log generation built into every system we deliver.
All IoT data pipelines are mapped to FHIR-compliant resource structures, enabling seamless interoperability with certified EHR systems.
Our internal development and data handling processes are SOC 2 Type II audited, providing assurance of operational security and availability.
We support region-specific data residency requirements, including US, EU (GDPR-aligned), and other regulatory jurisdictions.
Familiarity with IEC 62443 (industrial IoT security), IEC 62304 (medical device software lifecycle), and FDA guidance on software as a medical device (SaMD) where applicable.
Every engagement begins with a mutual NDA. Your architecture, data models, and clinical workflows remain fully confidential.
We start by mapping your clinical environment, device ecosystem, existing EHR infrastructure, and compliance obligations. This is not a generic kickoff. We look for integration conflicts, data governance gaps, and architecture risks before the project starts, not after.
Our architects design the IoT system with HIPAA safeguards, FHIR data models, and your clinical workflow requirements built in from the start. You receive a documented blueprint that your legal, compliance, and clinical informatics teams can review and sign off on.
We build in iterative sprints, integrating devices, building data pipelines, and connecting your clinical systems in parallel. You see working software at the end of every sprint, not after six months.
Before any system touches live patient data, it goes through security penetration testing, HIPAA audit readiness review, and functional validation against your clinical acceptance criteria. This step is non-negotiable.
We support production deployment, staff onboarding, and documentation handover. Post-launch, we offer managed IoT healthcare services including monitoring, maintenance, and iterative feature development.
Every system we build starts from a compliance baseline, not a feature list. HIPAA safeguards, FHIR data structures, and audit trail requirements are architectural decisions we make in Week 1, not retrofits in Week 12. Healthcare organizations we have worked with avoid compliance rework cycles that can cost more than the original project budget.
Our teams have hands-on experience integrating with Epic, Cerner, MEDITECH, and custom health data environments. We understand the difference between building software and building software that clinical and IT teams will actually use and trust. That gap is where most vendor relationships break down.
We operate on short sprint cycles with documented delivery milestones. If a dependency, a device protocol edge case, or a compliance requirement changes the scope, you know about it the same week, not the same quarter. Our Clutch rating of 4.7 reflects this approach, not just our technical output.
The future of healthcare IoT is not just connectivity. It is predictive. We bring AI-powered analytics into IoT deployments, enabling systems that do not just collect data but surface the actionable signals inside it. This is what separates a connected device network from a clinical intelligence system.
