The healthcare industry faces many issues that influence patient interaction with providers. A major issue we will discuss is the lengthy wait time patients have to endure before seeing a healthcare provider in person. By studying this problem in detail and taking into account patient feedback, we will come up with different solutions to tackle this problem.
Millennials are often frustrated with the amount of time they have to wait when they visit a healthcare provider, so I am researching this topic. My goal is to gain a deeper understanding of the problem and its origins. By doing so, I will be able to discover different digital solutions that will help reduce waiting times and get millennials back to their daily lives.
30% of patients have left a physician’s office before being seen due to extensive wait times.
It can take up to 2 hours to assess new patients and complete paperwork.
It is possible for other patients to experience alonger waiting time as a result of late arrivals.
A slow check-in process at the front desk delaysthe operation and extends wait times.
To obtain insight into roadside assistance experiences from past users, I conducted four indiviual interviews. After conducting the interviews, I was able to identify some general pain points, motivations, and behaviors. Utilizing an affinity map, I derived four main themes and insights after organizing my notes based on my findings.
Waits more than 30 minutes at the doctor’s office
Doesn’t like waiting in crowded areas
Doesn’t have accurate waiting time
Feels rushed by doctors when visiting
Uses app to make appointments
Follows a set schedule
Looks for health recourses online
Has reading materials to prepare for wait
Want to see doctor virtually if going in isn’t needed
Better communication with doctor
Convenient way to be able to meet with doctor
Wants to manage and see health stats confidentially
Millennials want to spend less time in the waiting room so that they can maximize their daily productivity.
Offering millennials, a more convenient and effective way to meet with doctors in order to reduce large crowds and wait times in waiting rooms.
Millennials want to have better communication with their doctor and more time to discuss their health without feeling rushed.
How might we improve the waiting experience for millennials seeking healthcare in order to ensure they get the best care quickly?
After determining the “How Might We” question, we had to create a persona to fully encompass our target audience. The purpose of creating a persona is to understand the needs of users and create a digital solution based on the findings, insights, and interviews conducted.
After I had finished creating my solutions sketches, I turned them into actual working greyscale prototypes. Here, we look at how users will interact with the product before adding any colors or images.
As soon as I received feedback from the usability testers, I began to analyze the note and notice common concerns across all of them. With a revised prototype, I was able to address all their concerns.
As soon as my usability testing was complete, I designed a design system for Nurture that included colors, fonts, and an easy-to-use user interface that best represented this brand.
