The digital transformation of healthcare is accelerating, but for telehealth providers, the choice of communication technology is fraught with risk. Using off-the-shelf video conferencing tools can create a compliance nightmare. How do you ensure patient data is secure?

It’s like putting your own sign on a franchise restaurant—it might have your name on the door, but it's still their kitchen and their menu.

At plugNmeet, we believe true white-labeling is not about hiding our brand; it's about empowering you to build your own.

Our platform is designed not as a finished product to be re-skinned, but as a flexible canvas for you to create a deeply integrated, pixel-perfect communication experience that feels like a native part of your application. This article explores the three levels of customization that make this possible.
