First… we defined what a "full-digital user" looks like

In order to simplify the issue I came up with this equation:

Then… we segmented our users and prioritized which group to focus on

The smart move was to chose to know deeply our "Semi-Digital Users", they were half way to being fully digital and therefore increase the share of appointments paid digitally

Content based on the user's language at its core + engaging visuals

The information architecture changed based on the research insights

Select or add family members every time you start scheduling an appointment

This was a core feature, almost 80% of the accounts were managed by the "family administrator" for medical issues

Better structured pricing information and share payment

Research showed that users fear that the price was not transparent enough and that some main administrators were not the "payers".

Visually appealing tracking and personalized treatment's promotions

Users not only can have a structured tracking of the treatment sent by a doctor but they also receive a personalized promo to incentive them to follow it
