DuraWell - Comprehensive Medical Coordinator App

DuraWell – Healthcare Journey Platform

I am looking for an experienced mobile app developer/development team to build DuraWell, a healthcare journey coordination platform connecting patients, doctors and hospitals.

DuraWell is not intended to be just another doctor-booking app. The long-term vision is to coordinate the patient's complete treatment journey, especially when patients travel from one city/state to another for medical care.

Core journey:
Home → Doctor/Hospital Discovery → Appointment → Medical Records → Travel → Accommodation → Local Transport → Hospital → Investigation → Treatment → Discharge → Return Home → Follow-up

I need a real, functional, scalable and deployable product, not only a UI prototype.

1. Patient App

Registration & Profile

- Mobile OTP/email login
- Patient profile
- Family/dependent profiles
- Emergency contact
- Basic health information
- Allergies, conditions, medications and medical history

Medical Records

Secure upload and organization of:

- Prescriptions
- Lab reports
- X-rays/CT/MRI reports
- Discharge summaries
- Previous medical records
- Referral letters
- PDF/images

Records should be categorized, dated, viewable and securely stored.

2. Doctor Discovery

Patients should be able to search/filter doctors by:

- Specialty/sub-specialty
- City
- Hospital
- Experience
- Availability
- Consultation type

Doctor profiles should include qualifications, specialty, experience, hospital affiliation, consultation fee, availability and location.

3. Hospital Discovery

Search hospitals by:

- City
- Specialty
- Treatment/service
- Location
- Hospital type

Hospital profiles should show departments, doctors, services, facilities, emergency services, address and contact information.

4. Appointment Booking

Required:

- Doctor/hospital appointment booking
- Date/time slot selection
- Confirmation
- Cancellation/rescheduling
- Appointment history
- Reminders and notifications

Architecture should support future hospital/API integrations.

5. DuraWell Patient Journey

This is the core feature.

After selecting a doctor/hospital, DuraWell should create a structured treatment journey.

Example:

Doctor Selected → Appointment → Records Prepared → Travel → Accommodation → Hospital Visit → Investigation → Consultation → Admission → Treatment → Discharge → Return Home → Follow-up

Patients should see progress through a simple timeline/checklist.

Example:

✓ Doctor selected
✓ Appointment booked
✓ Records uploaded
→ Travel
→ Hospital visit
→ Investigation
→ Treatment
→ Discharge
→ Follow-up

The journey system should be modular so additional services can be added later.

6. Travel, Accommodation & Transport

For patients travelling to another city, future modules should support:

Travel

- Destination
- Travel dates
- Airport/railway station information
- Travel assistance

Accommodation

- Nearby hotels/accommodation
- Distance from hospital
- Location
- Price/category filtering
- Future booking integration

Local Transport

- Airport/railway station → hotel
- Hotel → hospital
- Hospital → diagnostic centre
- Return transportation

These modules can initially be designed for future API/partner integration.

7. Maps & Hospital Navigation

Integrate Google Maps or equivalent for:

- Hospital/doctor locations
- Nearby services
- Distance and routes
- Navigation

Future versions may include hospital department/OPD navigation and indoor navigation.

8. Doctor Dashboard

Doctors should eventually be able to:

- Manage profile
- Manage appointments
- View appointment calendar
- Manage authorized patient information
- Access permitted medical records
- Manage follow-ups
- Receive notifications

9. Hospital Dashboard

Hospitals should be able to manage:

- Hospital profile
- Departments
- Doctors
- Appointments
- Patient journeys
- Patient arrival information
- Services
- Basic analytics

10. Admin Dashboard

Web-based admin panel for managing:

- Patients/users
- Doctors
- Hospitals
- Appointments
- Medical documents
- Verification
- Partners/services
- Notifications
- Complaints/support
- Analytics
- Roles and permissions

11. Notifications

Support:

- Push notifications
- Appointment reminders
- Journey updates
- Follow-up reminders
- Important alerts

Firebase Cloud Messaging or equivalent can be used.

12. Payments

Architecture should be payment-ready for future:

- Consultation payments
- Platform services
- Partner services

Possible gateways: Razorpay, Cashfree, PhonePe or another suitable Indian gateway.

13. AI – Future Development

AI is part of the long-term vision but does not need to be fully implemented in the first MVP.

Future possibilities:

- Medical document organization
- Medical-record summarization
- Patient journey assistant
- Intelligent reminders
- Healthcare navigation
- Patient FAQ assistant
- Personalized journey support
- Doctor/hospital discovery assistance

The architecture should allow future AI integration. AI must not independently provide unsafe medical diagnosis/treatment decisions.

14. Security & Privacy

Because DuraWell will handle healthcare information, security is critical.

Required:

- Secure authentication
- Encrypted communication
- Secure database
- Role-based access
- Patient consent
- Secure document storage
- Backup strategy
- Audit logging where appropriate
- Protection against common security vulnerabilities

The developer should consider applicable Indian healthcare/data-protection requirements.

15. Suggested Technology

I am open to recommendations.

Possible stack:

Mobile: Flutter / React Native
Backend: Node.js/NestJS or equivalent
Database: PostgreSQL/MySQL
Cloud: AWS/Google Cloud/Azure
Authentication: OTP/Firebase Auth
Notifications: Firebase Cloud Messaging
Maps: Google Maps API

Developer should recommend the best architecture considering scalability, security and cost.

16. MVP – Phase 1

The first objective is a genuine working MVP.

Core MVP:

Register → Patient Profile → Doctor/Hospital Search → Profile → Appointment → Medical Records → Treatment Journey → Journey Status → Notifications

The MVP must be functional, testable and deployable, not merely a design prototype.

17. Deliverables

Selected developer/team should provide:

- UI/UX design
- Android application
- Backend
- Database
- APIs
- Admin dashboard
- Authentication
- Medical-record system
- Appointment system
- Patient journey system
- Notifications
- Maps
- Payment-ready architecture
- Testing
- Deployment
- Production build
- Complete source code
- API/database documentation
- Post-launch bug fixing

Complete source code and agreed intellectual property must be handed over to the project owner.

18. Proposal Requirements

Please provide a detailed bid containing:

1. MVP cost
2. Estimated full-platform cost
3. Module-wise cost if possible
4. Development timeline
5. Proposed technology stack
6. Team size and roles
7. Relevant previous projects
8. Maintenance/support cost
9. Post-launch bug-fixing period
10. Confirmation of source-code/IP ownership

I am looking for a long-term technology partner, not someone who only creates a prototype.

The long-term vision is to build a scalable healthcare ecosystem connecting patients, doctors, hospitals, diagnostics, travel, accommodation, transportation, telemedicine and AI.

Please submit your best technical approach, realistic MVP quotation, timeline and relevant portfolio.
