UI/UX Design

Designing medical encoding software and following HIPAA to keep the PII of our data secure was an intriguing challenge. Watching the ICD-10 encoders for user research revealed many necessary behaviors that had to be incorporated into our SaaS web app. I worked closely with all departments of the company to promote Procoder 10 as the best ICD-10 solution out there. Some of my favorite end users are ICD encoders because they could not tell you what they needed, you had to watch closely to show them what they needed as part of the design itself. Saving even more increments of time meant the ICD encoders made more money with their time.
