digital-health-ux-planning

Plans user experience journeys for digital health products. Platform-agnostic — focuses on user goals and decision points, not specific screens.

What It Covers​

  • User segments with constraints (literacy, fatigue, accessibility)
  • Core journeys (discover, enroll, learn, consent, first task, ongoing use, review progress)
  • Onboarding strategy (what's necessary vs. what can wait)
  • Day-to-day workflow design
  • Engagement principles (notifications, streaks, feedback — balanced against burden)
  • Accessibility and inclusion notes
  • Unresolved UX risks

Output​

Produces docs/planning/ux-brief.md.

Example​

AI:   Who are the primary users, and what are their core jobs
      when using this app?

You:  Post-transplant patients tracking their meds, and
      transplant coordinators reviewing adherence.

AI:   What constraints should we design around? For example —
      health literacy, fatigue, accessibility needs?

You:  Many patients are older, some have low health literacy,
      and they're often fatigued post-surgery.

AI:   Here's an onboarding approach for the patient journey:

      1. Welcome — one sentence on what the app does
      2. Account setup — email/password only, no unnecessary fields
      3. Medication list — import from care plan or enter manually
      4. First check-in — mark today's meds as taken (immediate value)
      5. Permissions — notifications only, deferred to after first use

      I'd defer any health data permissions or detailed profile
      setup until the patient has used the app for a day or two.

Limitations​

  • Does not produce wireframes or UI mockups
  • Does not assume mobile tabs, specific screens, or frameworks
  • Raises clinical safety and compliance questions but defers to other skills
