The problem

Patients opened the dashboard an average of 1.4 times per month and bounced within 20 seconds. The information architecture mirrored the hospital’s internal departments rather than anything a person in pain would look for.

The approach

Twelve contextual interviews, then a card sort that collapsed nine top-level sections into three: what’s next, what’s changed, what do I owe. Everything else moved behind search.

What happened

Monthly active use rose 3.1x in the first quarter. Support calls asking “where do I find my results” dropped by just over half.

Got something worth
building properly?

Taking on two projects for the coming quarter. Brand, product, or the messy bit in between.
