•  It takes
•  “Our UI is not at all intuitive”
Excerpts from the interviews
Key Business Challenges with respect toApios

efficiency of the consultants on the ground

EXISTING APPLICATION REVIEW :APIOS
Existing UI Evaluation : Selecting a Facility
1
2
3
1.The tab based navigation,
doesn’t match the workflow of
the consultant.
The multi modal navigation is
only helpful when user needs
to frequently jump around
between two different sets of
task or information
The workflow of a Pharmacy
consultant is very linear, and
the navigation model needs to
support that task flow
2. Why do we need a search
when in reality a Pharmacy
consultant is assigned 10-15
facilities?
The search here is
unnecessarily adding load to
the system, making it slow.
Increasing the number of
clicks for the consultant to find
a facility
3. Display ONLY the list of
Facilities that are relevant to
the consultant
Existing UI Evaluation : Selecting/Searching a Patient
1
2
1& 2. Just to go to patient list
user needs to :
1.  Select the checkbox (1
click)
2.  Click on the patient Drop
down ( 2 click)
3.  Click on patient search ( 3
click)
Note : User can also directly
click on Facility code and go to
the first patient in that facility
( sorted in alphabetical order)
But that doesn’t serve any
purpose. Because the
Printed Census that the
consultant receives in the
facility doesn’t match that
order. So this navigation is
meaningless
3
Existing UI Evaluation : Suggestions 1
2
1.  Remove the Top
Navigation. This is not
needed for the consultant.
Design a sequential
( modal) navigation that
matches the workflow of
the consultant
2.  Remove search Facility
function from the
Pharmacy Consultant’s
view.
3.  Show only the facilities
assigned to the consultant
4.  The entire pagination can
be removed
3
4
Existing UI Evaluation : Patient Recommendation 1
2
1.  Information duplicated in
multiple places. Lot of real-
estate wasted. Resulting in
scroll
2.  This grid is filled with
irrelevant information
which can be easily
removed
3.  Quite a few of these
buttons can also be
removed
4.  This page is cluttered with
too much information
5.  Key information “Order
Grid” that is needed by
the pharmacist to make a
recommendation is hidden
below the scroll.
6.  The user have to scroll at
least 2-3 times to review
order grid and then make a
recommendation for a
patient3
4
1.  Order Grid is the most
critical information that the
Pharmacy consultant
needs to make a
recommendation. However
this is placed below the
fold.
2.  Which means a consultant
needs to scroll down to
review the order grid and
scroll up again to review
the recommendations
before making any new
recommendation.
Existing UI Evaluation : Patient Recommendation : Suggestion1
2
1.  Remove unnecessary
information from the page
and the grid.
2.  Use maximum real estate
to display most critical
information
3.  Reduce scroll by removing
irrelevant information
4.  Redesign the
Recommendation grid with
clear segregation and
focus on key call to action
3
4
1.  The interaction here is very confusing.
2.  The differentiation between For review,
and reviewed is not explicit.
3.  What we understood from Jason is :
1.  For review : is for auto generated
recommendations
2.  Reviewed meas :
Recommendations reviewed but
doesn’t need to be submitted
3.  Submitted: is for submit to doctors
4.  This needs to be clearly communicated in
the UI
1.  According to Rick and
Jason no one uses this
dashboard as it doesn’t
help them in doing their
work faster.
2.  The dashboard is not
categories as per priority
3.  The links doesn’t directly
take them to the list of
patients under high risk. It
only allows them to view a
list.

PROPOSED WORKFLOWAND DESIGN
View interactive wireframe here : http://te3z5m.axshare.com
Design Consideration
The New work flow is designed with following
considerations :
1.  The interface should match ( as much as possible) the actual
workflow of the consultants on the ground
2.  The interface should aid/assists the consultants to complete his
immediate tasks while they are in a facility
3.  The interface should provide what they need and only when they
need it ( just in time information).
4.  Reduce unnecessary clutter from the screen and allow consultants
to focus on the task

1
Proposed Wireframes : Outcome Screen Simplified (1)
1
•  No one is actually clear on what to do and
how to go about outcome screen
•  It took 30 minutes discussion between
Jason and Rick to figure out what each of
the buttons “Add New”, “Add Current”,
“Change Drug” Does.
•  There is no reason why “Save” and
Confirm buttons exist.
•  We didn’t get sufficient time to get into
every details of the outcome screen. But
we strongly feel that there is a huge
opportunity to simplify this screen where
currently most of the consultants struggle.
•  NOTE :
•  Our recommendation is based on our
limited understanding of the Outcome
screen. This may not be completely
correct. A deeper dive into the business
workflow will allow us to further simplify or
modify this screen in a way that helps the
consultant
1
Proposed Wireframes : Outcome Screen (2)
1
•  Better organization of content
•  Clear classification between read only,
auto populated content and interactive
elements on the screen
•  Removal of confusing buttons from the
screen
1
2
3
2 •  Meaningful grouping of interaction.
•  Example : Discontinue Drug and
Add current drug is only applicable
to Current Dosage
•  Similarly add new Drug and
Change drug is applicable to
Proposed dosage
3 •  Reveal information as and when
necessary

  • 7. Golden Living Stakeholders •  We spend huge amount of time and money in training our consultants, even after that they aren’t able to use the application effectively” ( Jason) •  On an average Golden Living spends 3 full days per consultat •  Our consultants are not able to make effective recommendations ( Jason) •  As a business leader I am not able to show value( $ Savings) effectively to our clients. •  Although this application is used by only 40 people in the organization it generates more IT support tickets than any other application used by Golden Living ( Mike) •  The workflow of the application is too complex, and our consultants don’t understand the workflow clearly •  It takes •  “Our UI is not at all intuitive” Excerpts from the interviews
  • 8. Key Business Challenges with respect toApios •  Time taken to complete a recommendation is very high : impacting efficiency of the consultants on the ground •  Managers unable to show value to the customers : Reports generated by the application is misleading •  Very high training time •  Very high volume of IT support tickets
  • 9. USABILITY GOALS VS BUSINESS CHALLENGES
  • 10. Business Challenges vs UX Goals Business Challenges Usability Goals It takes too much time to complete a task for the consultant : Efficiency •  Design new workflow to reduce number of clicks, and task completion time. •  Increase efficiency by 50% Very High training time •  Application should be designed in such a way that it provides necessary assistance to the users, and minimize in person training time : Goal reduce training time by 20% Unable to show business value to clients •  Optimized workflow for business leaders and managers •  More control on report generation

  • 14. Existing UI Evaluation : Selecting a Facility 1 2 3 1.The tab based navigation, doesn’t match the workflow of the consultant. The multi modal navigation is only helpful when user needs to frequently jump around between two different sets of task or information The workflow of a Pharmacy consultant is very linear, and the navigation model needs to support that task flow 2. Why do we need a search when in reality a Pharmacy consultant is assigned 10-15 facilities? The search here is unnecessarily adding load to the system, making it slow. Increasing the number of clicks for the consultant to find a facility 3. Display ONLY the list of Facilities that are relevant to the consultant
  • 15. Existing UI Evaluation : Selecting/Searching a Patient 1 2 1& 2. Just to go to patient list user needs to : 1.  Select the checkbox (1 click) 2.  Click on the patient Drop down ( 2 click) 3.  Click on patient search ( 3 click) Note : User can also directly click on Facility code and go to the first patient in that facility ( sorted in alphabetical order) But that doesn’t serve any purpose. Because the Printed Census that the consultant receives in the facility doesn’t match that order. So this navigation is meaningless 3
  • 16. Existing UI Evaluation : Suggestions 1 2 1.  Remove the Top Navigation. This is not needed for the consultant. Design a sequential ( modal) navigation that matches the workflow of the consultant 2.  Remove search Facility function from the Pharmacy Consultant’s view. 3.  Show only the facilities assigned to the consultant 4.  The entire pagination can be removed 3 4
  • 17. Existing UI Evaluation : Patient Recommendation 1 2 1.  Information duplicated in multiple places. Lot of real- estate wasted. Resulting in scroll 2.  This grid is filled with irrelevant information which can be easily removed 3.  Quite a few of these buttons can also be removed 4.  This page is cluttered with too much information 5.  Key information “Order Grid” that is needed by the pharmacist to make a recommendation is hidden below the scroll. 6.  The user have to scroll at least 2-3 times to review order grid and then make a recommendation for a patient3 4
  • 18. 1.  Order Grid is the most critical information that the Pharmacy consultant needs to make a recommendation. However this is placed below the fold. 2.  Which means a consultant needs to scroll down to review the order grid and scroll up again to review the recommendations before making any new recommendation.
  • 19. Existing UI Evaluation : Patient Recommendation : Suggestion1 2 1.  Remove unnecessary information from the page and the grid. 2.  Use maximum real estate to display most critical information 3.  Reduce scroll by removing irrelevant information 4.  Redesign the Recommendation grid with clear segregation and focus on key call to action 3 4
  • 20. 1.  The interaction here is very confusing. 2.  The differentiation between For review, and reviewed is not explicit. 3.  What we understood from Jason is : 1.  For review : is for auto generated recommendations 2.  Reviewed meas : Recommendations reviewed but doesn’t need to be submitted 3.  Submitted: is for submit to doctors 4.  This needs to be clearly communicated in the UI
  • 21. 1.  According to Rick and Jason no one uses this dashboard as it doesn’t help them in doing their work faster. 2.  The dashboard is not categories as per priority 3.  The links doesn’t directly take them to the list of patients under high risk. It only allows them to view a list.

  • 25. Design Consideration The New work flow is designed with following considerations : 1.  The interface should match ( as much as possible) the actual workflow of the consultants on the ground 2.  The interface should aid/assists the consultants to complete his immediate tasks while they are in a facility 3.  The interface should provide what they need and only when they need it ( just in time information). 4.  Reduce unnecessary clutter from the screen and allow consultants to focus on the task

Yes We should have an option to switch between facilities Facility List Left Navigation Yes Most efficient way to find a patient is by searching by last name Search always available Yes Proposed Wireframes : Facility List + Patient List (2)

Yes Not sure why some of the fields in the recommendation grid is there Unwanted fields removed. Yes Too many clicks to search another patient once I am done Stay on the same page. Yes

  • 35. Proposed Wireframes : Outcome Screen Simplified (1) 1 •  No one is actually clear on what to do and how to go about outcome screen •  It took 30 minutes discussion between Jason and Rick to figure out what each of the buttons “Add New”, “Add Current”, “Change Drug” Does. •  There is no reason why “Save” and Confirm buttons exist. •  We didn’t get sufficient time to get into every details of the outcome screen. But we strongly feel that there is a huge opportunity to simplify this screen where currently most of the consultants struggle. •  NOTE : •  Our recommendation is based on our limited understanding of the Outcome screen. This may not be completely correct. A deeper dive into the business workflow will allow us to further simplify or modify this screen in a way that helps the consultant 1
  • 36. Proposed Wireframes : Outcome Screen (2) 1 •  Better organization of content •  Clear classification between read only, auto populated content and interactive elements on the screen •  Removal of confusing buttons from the screen 1 2 3 2 •  Meaningful grouping of interaction. •  Example : Discontinue Drug and Add current drug is only applicable to Current Dosage •  Similarly add new Drug and Change drug is applicable to Proposed dosage 3 •  Reveal information as and when necessary
