Problem Overview

User Problem

Users needed to interpret multiple regional signals such as disease burden, engagement coverage, and clinical trial activity 

to determine where to focus field efforts. These signals were distributed across different systems and reports, making it 

difficult to quickly identify high-opportunity regions or detect emerging patterns.



Business Problem

The business required a centralized system that could integrate multiple regional signals and support data-driven prioritization across different stages of the drug lifecycle.

My Approach

01 - Heuristic Evaluation

01 - Stakeholder Meeting

Conducted a heuristic review of the existing subscription and wallet flows to identify usability issues.

Discussions with Medical Affairs, strategy, and data teams revealed key signals used for market prioritization.

02 - User Interviews

Interviewed 6 users to understand subscription decisions and 

wallet/refund expectations.

Interviewed 4 users to understand how regional signals are interpreted when evaluating opportunity markets.

03 - Behavioural Analytics

03 - Insight Synthesis

Analysed drop-off points in the existing subscription funnel and to identify patterns in session data.

Clustered raw interview insights 

to identify decision patterns and key signals used in regional prioritization.

04 - Usability Testing

Participants interacted with the current subscription flow to identify friction points and confusion areas.

Tested high-fidelity dashboard prototypes to evaluate how users interpret geo-analytical signals.

05 - Prototype Testing

Validated the new subscription flow with wallet, refund transparency, and flexible plan controls.

Validated map interactions, KPI prioritization, and multi-signal comparison for regional analysis.

06 - Design Handoff

Translated validated flows into specs and aligned with engineering for subscription, wallet, and refund logic.

Translated validated dashboards into specifications and collaborated with engineering for data integration.

Problem Overview

User Problem

Users lacked clarity and control within the subscription experience. Ambiguity around refund handling combined with rigid plan 

structures made it difficult to select the right subscription type, 

resulting in friction and incomplete conversions.

Users needed to interpret multiple regional signals such as 

disease burden, engagement coverage, and clinical trial activity 

to determine where to focus field efforts. These signals were distributed across different systems and reports, making it 

difficult to quickly identify high-opportunity regions or detect emerging patterns.

Business Problem

The existing subscription model lacked flexibility and automation, constraining recurring revenue growth and long-term retention. The business required a scalable subscription framework supporting daily, weekly, and custom plans with automated wallet-based transactions.

Solution

01

Map-First
Geo-Analytical Interface

  • Research revealed that Medical Affairs leadership primarily think about opportunity in geographic terms.


  • To address this, the dashboard introduced a 

map-centric interface that visually represents disease burden, engagement coverage, and clinical trial activity across
    the U.S.

02

Progressive Geographic
Drill-Down

  • Medical Affairs leadership typically begin analysis with a broad national perspective, then narrow down to specific regions where opportunity signals 

appear strongest.


  • To support this workflow, the dashboard introduced a progressive drill-down model, allowing users to move seamlessly between geographic layers:

National overview → State-level → City-level

03

Prioritized 


KPI Framework

  • Users reported difficulty interpreting dashboards that displayed too many metrics simultaneously. 

Decision-making often depended on a small set of critical signals, while other metrics were used only for deeper validation.




  • The dashboard therefore introduced a prioritized KPI framework, highlighting the most decision-critical signals by default.



04

Multi-Signal Comparison

  • Opportunity decisions rarely depend on a single metric. Instead, users must evaluate multiple datasets simultaneously, such as disease burden, engagement coverage, and clinical trial activity.




  • The dashboard enabled side-by-side comparison of multiple signals, allowing users to assess whether regions with high disease burden also lacked engagement coverage or
    active trials.

Modular Subscription
Framework

01

Map-First Geo-Analytical Interface

Designed a scalable subscription model supporting:

  • Daily

  • Weekly

  • Custom frequency plans



Each plan was structured with guided defaults to reduce cognitive load while still allowing controlled personalization. The architecture ensured compatibility with backend routing logic and recurring payment mandates.

  • Research revealed that Medical Affairs leadership primarily
    think about opportunity in
    geographic terms.

Restructured


Child Order & Subscription Flow

02

Progressive Geographic 

Drill-Down

The subscription system was built as a reusable framework that:


  • Reduced redundant steps & Simplifying plan 

selection across child orders & subscription orders

  • Minimized backtracking behavior observed in usability tests

  • Enabled flexible features like pause, skip, or predictive scheduling

  • Medical Affairs leadership typically begin analysis 

with a broad national perspective, then narrow down to specific regions where opportunity signals 

appear strongest. 




  • To support this workflow, the dashboard introduced a progressive drill-down model, allowing users
    to move seamlessly between geographic layers:

National
    overview → State-level → City-level

03

Subscription Cancellation Flow
along with Refund

03

Prioritized KPI Framework

The cancellation flow determines refund eligibility based on the original payment source.

  • The flow identifies active vs inactive subscriptions and calculates refund eligibility before confirming cancellation.

  • If the subscription amount was debited from 

the in-app wallet, the remaining balance is automatically refunded back to the user’s wallet.



  • Users reported difficulty interpreting dashboards that displayed too many metrics simultaneously. 

Decision-making often depended on a small set of critical signals, while other metrics were used only for deeper validation.




  • The dashboard therefore introduced a prioritized KPI framework, highlighting the most decision-critical signals by default.



04

Wallet
Top-Up Experience

04

Multi-Signal Comparison

The wallet top-up experience was redesigned to support seamless subscription payments


  • Simplifying the wallet recharge flow, allowing users to quickly add funds when subscription payments fail or balances are low.

  • Enabling flexible wallet top-ups with preset amounts (₹500, ₹1000) and custom entries to ensure sufficient balance for upcoming deliveries.



  • Opportunity decisions rarely depend on a single metric. Instead, users
    must evaluate multiple datasets simultaneously, such as disease burden, engagement coverage, and clinical trial activity.



  • The dashboard enabled side-by-side comparison of multiple signals, allowing users to assess whether regions with high disease burden
    also lacked engagement coverage
    or active trials.
