UX Design: Interpreta, Inc.

Interpreta, Inc. is a healthcare startup working to provide precision medicine. The company wants to correct gaps in patient care by aggregating, incorporating, and utilizing the best healthcare methods, including clinical and genomic data. While working with them as a UX Designer, I iterated through sketches and wireframes to design a healthcare professional-facing view of pertinent patient information.

 

Project Process

While my work with Interpreta is covered by an NDA so I cannot include screenshots and detailed descriptions, I have provided a brief overview here. To begin, the CEO and the senior UX architect briefed me on a part of the product that they wanted me to work on - an active problem viewer. A display of a patient's pertinent conditions, drugs, labs, and procedures. I worked in Balsamiq because I wanted low-fidelity. This was for two reasons. I wanted something that could be created quickly. But I also wanted something that could be presented for raw and honest feedback and then iterated over again quickly. The senior US architect was satisfied with my work, and so was the CEO - to a point. Now that he was able to see what I had visualized for his idea. He wanted to take it even further. He instead wanted me to make this into a disease-centric viewer. I still decided to remain in Balsamiq as it had proven successful in allowing me to create quick wireframes that I could use for feedback. When the senior UX architect approved of my work, I once again returned to the CEO. He, however, still liked both the active problem viewer and the disease-centric viewer. As they were two sides of the same coin, and could each prove valuable depending on the situation. He asked me to combine them into one. For the end of this project, I moved to justinmind - a prototyping tool similar to Axure. I chose this tool because I really wanted to focus on the interactions and being able to deliver a clickable, medium-fidelity prototype. I merged the two views into one screen with many tabs, finalized it, and presented my work at the end of my internship with the company.
