Real-World Use Cases

How organizations leverage Reforms for privacy-first communication

Discover how different industries and organizations use Reforms Messenger to achieve secure, compliant, and efficient communication.

🏥 Healthcare: Secure Patient Communication​

Use Case: Telemedicine Consultations​

Challenge: Healthcare providers need HIPAA-compliant video consultations without storing patient data on third-party servers.

Reforms Solution: Direct P2P video calls with end-to-end encryption ensure patient data never leaves devices.

Implementation Example​

Dr. Sarah Chen, Telemedicine Specialist

"I needed a solution for remote patient consultations that guaranteed HIPAA compliance. Traditional platforms like Zoom store patient data on their servers, creating compliance risks."

Technical Implementation:

// Healthcare-compliant session
const consultation = await reforms.createHealthcareSession({
  participants: [doctorId, patientId],
  compliance: 'HIPAA',
  dataRetention: 'never',
  auditLogging: true,
  encryption: 'medical-grade'
});

// Direct P2P connection - no server storage
await consultation.startVideoCall({
  recording: false, // Privacy default
  quality: 'adaptive',
  backgroundBlur: true
});

Results:

  • ✅ 100% HIPAA Compliance - Data never touches servers
  • ✅ Cost Savings - $2,400/year vs $7,200 for traditional solutions
  • ✅ Patient Trust - Enhanced privacy guarantees
  • ✅ Audit Ready - Built-in compliance logging
