MembersHealth
App Redesign

MembersHealth is a digital healthcare app that connects patients with doctors via voice or video calls. Users can book medical appointments, manage prescriptions, and access other health services for themselves and their family members.

Project Overview

MembersHealth is a 24/7 virtual healthcare platform that allows members to:

  • Book appointments with medical doctors or mental health professionals

  • Connect via video or voice call

  • Manage care for family members or dependents

  • Access a health library powered by iMD

The platform is built for fast, on-demand care - anywhere, anytime.

Problem

The original app had major usability issues:

  • Poor visual hierarchy made it hard to scan or take action

  • Key services (booking, calling, managing members) weren’t easy to find

  • The design lacked consistency and accessibility

  • Flows like sign-up and appointment booking felt cluttered and frustrating

This led to user confusion, higher support needs, and low confidence in the platform - especially problematic in healthcare.

Goals

  • Simplify the user experience

  • Surface core actions immediately

  • Improve UI consistency, trust, and accessibility

  • Streamline booking and appointment flows

  • Make it easy for caregivers to manage family care

The core features were there, but the design made it hard to trust or navigate, especially when users needed care fast.

UX Approach

With limited user research available, I focused on:

  • Heuristic evaluation of existing flow

  • Feedback from stakeholders and developers

  • UX best practices (clarity, contrast, hierarchy)

  • Prioritizing tasks over visual decoration

Key UX Improvements

Area
Before
After

Homepage

Generic, cluttered

Action Personalized greeting, avatar, clear actions

Action Buttons

Low contrast, unclear use

Icon-based actions for doctor calls, video visits, health services

Appointment Flow

Dense layout, no guidance

Step-by-step selection (service → time → confirm)

Confirmation

Lacked visual feedback

Success screen with option to “Add to Calendar”

Login

Minimal, uninviting

Clean design, social sign-in, clear hierarchy

Visual Highlights

Testing & Feedback

  • Conducted internal usability walkthroughs with developers and stakeholders

  • Stakeholders validated the new design as a major improvement in clarity and visual trust

  • The redesign served as the foundation for future user testing and iteration

Results & Internal Feedback

The redesigned app was reviewed by internal stakeholders and development teams.

  • Stakeholders noted the new UI better aligned with the core service goals and felt easier to navigate

  • Developers appreciated that the updated design reduced ambiguity during handoff

  • The simplified flows and clear action hierarchy set a strong foundation for future user validation and rollout

These outcomes validated the redesign direction and confirmed it was a measurable improvement over the original.

Final Design & Interactive Prototype

Below is a snapshot of the final screens from the redesigned MembersHealth app. The new design emphasizes clarity, accessibility, and speed, helping users get connected to healthcare professionals quickly and confidently.

These screens showcase:

  • A cleaner homepage with clearly surfaced core actions

  • A simplified appointment booking flow

  • An accessible and welcoming sign-up experience

  • A focused confirmation state with strong user feedback

  • Updated navigation and visual hierarchy across the app

Reflection

This redesign focused on simplifying access to care and supporting caregivers in managing health services for others. Aesthetics supported usability — not the other way around.

With more time, I'd conduct remote usability testing with real patients and caregivers to validate flow intuitiveness and emotional trust.

What I Learned

  • I learned how to prioritize UX improvements even without direct access to users

  • This project showed me the impact of clarity and structure in high-stakes use cases like healthcare

  • I grew more confident balancing stakeholder needs with user-centered design principles

  • I strengthened my ability to collaborate cross-functionally with devs during redesign execution

Key Takeaways

  • Trust and clarity are critical in healthcare UX

  • Even without research, heuristics and visual design principles can lead to measurable improvement

  • Surface core tasks early, reduce cognitive load, and support multiple user types
