#1

identifying the problem

The problem was pinpointed through feedback from a friend therapist. They shared that creating and managing patient intake forms is time-consuming and repetitive. This revealed a clear opportunity to improve the platform and better align it with its goal of being a time-saving tool.

#2

research

To validate and deepen my understanding, I conducted a small-scale research. I had informal interviews with a psychologist, a speech therapist, and an occupational therapist to explore their pain points. I also reviewed similar platforms through websites, free trials, and user reviews. Most lacked features to streamline repetitive tasks, confirming a gap in the current solutions.

solution

Based on the research insights, I discussed the problem with the team to explore possible directions. I proposed an AI-powered assistant, since the platform already included AI features like smart notes. After further discussions with the developers, we agreed that it would take the form of a chat interface, as it’s a familiar and intuitive format for most users.

create intake form & new patient

Using the AI tool on the platform, therapists can swiftly create new patient profiles or intake forms. They can choose AI-generated forms or they can upload documents for the AI to extract relevant data. The tool prompts completion of missing details and allows for review and editing before confirmation. If preferred, a manual entry option is available for those less familiar with AI.

next steps-user testing

My next steps would be to conduct a structured usability testing with 5-7 therapists and psychologists. The testing would specifically evaluate whether the AI-assisted features are understandable and valuable to real users.

For the testing sessions, I would create a realistic scenario where therapists have to complete two main tasks: creating a new intake form using both AI methods and processing a new patient with document upload. I would provide sample documents for them to use during testing.

During the sessions, I would observe mainly, if therapists can successfully create forms and add patients without assistance and how much faster the AI-assisted process is compared to the manual method. I would also note error rates to identify where therapists get confused or make mistakes during the workflow.
