Kaiser Permanente Norcal: Cold and Flu Sites

Cold and flu page, My Doctor Online

 

Cold and Flu Page Redesign

PROJECT:

Kaiser Permanente, The Permanente Group (TTG), Apex Systems

ROLE:

Lead Product Designer working with design management and user research. Responsible for presenting to business and handing off specifications to development team.

 
 

ABOUT:

The COVID-19 pandemic has made getting a flu vaccine more important than ever. This project was a redesign of the MY DOCTOR ONLINE cold and flu prevention page.

 
 

BREIF:

Redesign the cold and flu vaccine package, starting with the prevention page.

  • Update page to new design standards

  • Display important changes to the vaccine program

  • Display COVID-19 protocol

  • Display new vaccine methods

  • Display availability of each vaccine type

  • Help users find a vaccine near them

  • Help users quickly find a flu vaccine if their preferred location is not available.

 
 

DESIGN:

COVID-19 has drastically changed the way that people receive care. Many changes were made to the flu vaccine program that need to be communicated to users. This year there are new ways to get a flu shot, important protocols that patients need to follow to receive a flu shot, and new clinic specific instructions. These changes required a redesign of the cold and flu package. This redesign needed to be designed, built, and deployed quickly before the flu season started.

The cold and flu prevention page redesign goals

  1. Clearly communicate changes to the flu vaccine program

  2. Guide users to the right services and locations to receive care

APPROACH:

Because this was a quick redesign I used existing research and updated UX best practices. I identified quick wins to help guide the redesign:

  • Use new design standards

  • Responsive web design

  • Improved site hierarchy

  • Reduce friction on location selection

  • Surface high level facts about vaccines and COVID

  • Make content more scannable

 

Audit of Legacy site, with new site hierarchy

Design Explorations, wireframes

Updated Cold and Flu Package, Page States

 

COLLABORATION:

I worked closely with the Health Engagement team and Development to quickly design and iterate. Rapid prototyping was crucial to making robust prototypes to validate designs with unmoderated remote studies.

This project is highly visible and is continuously getting planned enhancements.
