Project Overview

Summary

This class project focuses on experimenting with finding existing issue from user research and making a better version of a website on our choice with better implementation of user experience.

My Part

  • Directed the research progress and facilitated brainstorming sessions.

  • Conceptualized and designed all wireframes.

  • Built information architecture for a clean user experience.

  • Formulated and structured interview and survey questions, and conducted comprehensive interviews.

  • Crafted multiple reusable components in Figma using a flex-box format.

  • Designed and enhanced user flow prototypes in Figma for optimal performance.

Challenge

  • Short Timeframe: Limited duration prevented creating a full component set and required tightly scheduled interviews, impacting research depth.

  • Unparticipating teammates: Out of five teammates, two contributed minimally, leaving a three-person team to manage an overwhelming workload and maintain project momentum under significant pressure.

The Problem Background

MyChart is an online health management tool that allows patients to access their medical records, communicate with healthcare providers, schedule appointments, and manage their health information securely.

However, it has information architecture flaws that need to be redesigned to improve user experience and accessibility.

Final Design

Our final deliverable is a desktop website designed to streamline the healthcare experience, enabling users to communicate with doctors, schedule appointments, view test results, and refill prescriptions seamlessly.

Research

Our team conducted interviews with multiple doctors and patients who regularly use MyChart. Additionally, we distributed numerous surveys to gather comprehensive feedback.

Survey

Surveys for both health providers and patients also emphasizes on similar paterns.

Problems

  1. HOSPITALS WITH DIFFERENT ACCOUNTS

There is no central place where you can access all hospitals; instead, you have to go to the MyChart for each individual hospital.

  1. HARD TO FIND CORRECT PAGES

Many users of MyChart often lose track of what page they are on, making it difficult for them to find the information they need, even for simple tasks.

  1. TOO MANY CLICKS

MyChart often presents an information overload, with data nested in a deep information architecture that requires multiple clicks to access.

How might we…

create a centralized, user-friendly MyChart platform that simplifies navigation and reduces the number of clicks needed to access critical healthcare information?

Brainstorm

Our team then initiated an intensive wireframe brainstorming session to address the above problems, specifically focusing on fixing the information architecture.

Work in Progress

Components building

In order to make prototyping more fluent as well as practicing preparing for scale up, my team and I build the component in flex-box format in Figma.

Prototype

After completing the component, my team and I starts to build prototype on Figma using components, which centuralized nodes connections.

08 - Conclusion

What I learned?

Regular team meetings would speed up the process and keep team members engaged.

If I had more time...

We would make full prototype with micro-interaction animation on Protopie.
