Challenge

Gaining a comprehensive understanding of the member/patient and provider cycle to enable proactive and preventive communication, coupled with improved utility, leading to decreased workload for care managers, heightened program engagement, and, ultimately, a reduction in hospital readmissions.

Role

Overseeing a comprehensive spectrum of tasks, including workshops, user and persona research, ideation, as well as the management and production of deliverables. This collective effort culminates in the development of a comprehensive user experience vision strategy, ultimately defining the future state of the platform.

Solution

We implemented a multi-faceted approach focused on understanding and enhancing the member/patient and provider experience. We conducted in-depth user interviews, surveys, and observational studies to gather insights into their needs, behaviors, and pain points, leading to the development of detailed personas and journey maps. We developed solutions in learning and communication to decrease hospital readmissions and reduce member time. Utilizing machine learning, we gathered data on readmission symptoms and likelihood, driving continuous improvement of the platform's success rate for patients over time.
