The proliferation of mobile health technology, or mHealth apps, has necessitated the paramount importance of safeguarding personal health records. These digital platforms afford individuals the ability to effortlessly monitor and manage their health-related issues, as well as store, share, and access their medical records and treatment information. As the utilization of mHealth apps becomes increasingly widespread, it is imperative to ensure that protected health information (PHI) is effectively and securely transmitted, received, created, and maintained in accordance with the regulations set forth by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). However, it is unfortunate to note that many mobile app developers, including those of mHealth apps, are not fully cognizant of the HIPAA security and privacy guidelines. This presents a unique opportunity for research to develop an analytical framework that can aid developers in maintaining a secure and HIPAA-compliant source code, while also raising awareness among consumers about the privacy and security of sensitive health information. The plan is to develop a framework which will serve as the foundation for developing an integrated development environment (IDE) plugin for mHealth app developers and a web-based interface for mHealth app consumers. This will help developers identify and address HIPAA compliance issues during the development process and provide consumers with a tool to evaluate the privacy and security of mHealth apps before downloading and using them. The goal is to encourage the development of secure and compliant mHealth apps that safeguard personal health information.
