Healthcare feature
-
I worked on a regional portal for a major healthcare company
-
The portal is a native web app that helps providers search for patient data
-
During my time there, I created a search function where providers could quickly and easily search for patient data
-
This was a regional portal for the Pacific Northwest region (Oregon and Washington)
Background
How might we create a feature for healthcare data search that's fast and easy to find?
-
This was done for one the largest healthcare providers in North America
-
The users of this application were physicians and overall healthcare administrators
-
This was a regional portal for the Pacific Northwest region (Oregon and Washington)
Solution and the artifacts below
-
In this scenario, a provider searches for patient data under detailed benefits
-
The patient has benefits, but for the provider information architecture
-
The detailed benefits section has several categories
1) Intro
-
When the section expands, it showcases the list of entire benefits.
-
Since there are 100s of categories only 20 will be displayed at a given time with the option to expand the viewing with the see more see all buttons
-
The search bar will the primary source of sourcing relevant information
-
Three characters will trigger the search
-
Clicking the See More button adds more options to the page
2) Search bar
Conculsion and feedback
-
The feature was approved built and deployed
-
The idea of adding colored circles to indicate the presence of keywords nested in different data sets was widely appreciated
-
The quick turn around and detailed explanations and justifications of data were appreciated
-
Clicking 'See More' again adds a scroll bar that gets thinner with more options
3) Scroll
-
Adding a colored circle to indicate the search result (keyword match) which is nested in each individual category
4) Colored circle
-
Keyword highlighted by the color (same as the circle color) in the relevant category
5) Highlight
-
In this case it is similar to the default screen with the 'no match found' wording present
