Motivation

Digital healthcare providers expanding into European markets often need to support digital care delivery across multiple insurance organizations with different requirements, branding, and operational policies. Building and maintaining separate apps for each partner increases costs and creates operational complexity.

The client aimed to adapt an existing US telemedicine concept to the needs of the Danish and broader European market. The organization required a scalable platform to support multiple insurance companies, preserve customer-specific workflows, and ensure a seamless experience for patients, providers, and administrators.

Azati participated in building the platform from scratch and contributed to the development of a multi-tenant backend supporting the entire consultation lifecycle, reporting capabilities, billing processes, and integrations with external services.
