A code audit answers a precise question: what is actually in this codebase, and what will it cost you? Taction Software performs healthcare software code audits — code quality, security, architecture, technical debt, and healthcare-specific PHI and integration patterns — for acquirers, investors, CTOs, and organizations inheriting a codebase. You get a risk-rated findings report with code references, remediation effort and priority estimates, and a refactoring plan — and, if you want it, a team that can fix what the audit finds.

This is a codebase-level audit. For investor-facing deal evaluation, see our healthcare tech due diligence; for organization-wide security posture, see our healthcare security audit.

When You Need a Healthcare Code Audit

Pre-Acquisition Tech Diligence

Before acquiring a health-tech asset, a code audit tells you what you are actually buying beneath the demo — often as part of broader tech due diligence.

Inheriting a Codebase (Vendor Handoff, Team Transition)

When you inherit a codebase from a departing vendor or team, an audit gives you a true map before you depend on it.

Pre-Modernization Baseline

Before modernizing, an audit establishes the baseline — what to keep, refactor, or replace — feeding directly into our software modernization work.

Investor Tech Confidence

For investors, a code audit converts technical uncertainty into a risk-rated picture they can act on.

Healthcare Compliance Audit Preparation

Ahead of a compliance review, an audit surfaces the PHI-handling, logging, and encryption issues that would otherwise become findings — see our HIPAA-compliant development practice.

What Our Code Audit Covers

Code Quality

Static analysis across the codebase, code smell and anti-pattern detection, documentation quality, and a maintainability index — an objective read on how healthy the code is.

Security Review

OWASP-aligned security code review, healthcare-specific vulnerability patterns, secrets and credentials in code, and a dependency vulnerability audit — complementing our penetration testing and data security work.

Architecture Assessment

Architecture pattern adherence, coupling and cohesion analysis, scalability assessment, and technical debt quantification — whether the structure will hold up as you grow.

Healthcare-Specific Review

PHI handling patterns, audit logging implementation, HL7 / FHIR integration code (via our HL7 and FHIR expertise), and encryption implementation — the things a generalist code review simply does not check.

Deliverables

You receive: an executive code quality report, detailed findings with code references, remediation effort and priority estimates, a risk-rated issues list, and a recommended refactoring plan — enough to make a decision and to act on it.

Engagement Types

We offer a quick audit (1 week, single codebase), a comprehensive audit (2–4 weeks), a pre-acquisition diligence audit, and an inherited-codebase onboarding audit — matched to your situation and timeline.

Code Audit + Remediation Path

Audit Identifies Issues; Remediation Engagement Fixes Them

The audit is independent and honest. If you then want the issues fixed, we can do that as a separate remediation engagement — audits frequently lead to remediation or modernization several times the audit’s value, and that is fine, but the audit stands on its own.

Modernization-Focused Audits

When the goal is modernization, we focus the audit on what to keep, refactor, or replace.

Security Remediation Audits

When the driver is security, we focus on the vulnerabilities and the path to closing them.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a code audit take?

From one week for a focused single-codebase audit to two to four weeks for a comprehensive one, depending on codebase size and depth. We scope it precisely on the call.

Do you need our source code?

Yes — a meaningful code audit requires access to the source, which is exactly why we work NDA-first and handle your code under strict confidentiality. We can work within your access and environment constraints.

What languages do you support?

We audit across the stacks common in healthcare software — Node.js, Python, Java, .NET, and PHP, plus mobile (Swift, Kotlin, React Native, Flutter). Tell us your stack on the call and we will confirm fit.

Will you also fix the findings?

We can. As healthcare software engineers we are able to remediate what we identify in a separate engagement, but the audit itself is independent — you are free to take the findings and fix them yourself or with another vendor.

NDA?

Always. Every code audit is NDA-first; your source code and findings stay confidential.
