CareSpan digital product case study

Overview

CareSpan is a care-coordination network linking primary practitioners with specialist teams. Soance partnered with the team to align the product experience, technical delivery, and operational requirements.

The core brief was to deliver a clearer mobile workflow for referrals, case updates, secure messaging, and follow-up responsibilities while giving internal teams a system they could confidently operate, measure, and evolve after launch.

Services provided

  • Product strategy and user research
  • Mobile UX and interface design
  • Cross-platform application development
  • API integration, QA, and launch support

Challenges

The project needed to balance a polished customer experience with the less-visible realities of content, operations, permissions, integrations, and long-term maintainability.

  • Structured referral creation and triage: The experience needed to support this capability without adding unnecessary complexity for users or operational teams.
  • Secure case-based communication: The experience needed to support this capability without adding unnecessary complexity for users or operational teams.
  • Status tracking, reminders, and audit history: The experience needed to support this capability without adding unnecessary complexity for users or operational teams.

Solution

We designed the experience around short, confidence-building tasks, then built a cross-platform application backed by secure APIs, analytics, and a maintainable design system.

  • Designed and validated structured referral creation and triage as part of one coherent, role-aware product journey.
  • Designed and validated secure case-based communication as part of one coherent, role-aware product journey.
  • Designed and validated status tracking, reminders, and audit history as part of one coherent, role-aware product journey.

A shared design system, instrumentation plan, and staged release approach kept the product coherent while allowing the team to learn from real-world usage patterns.

Outcomes

The delivered experience created a stronger foundation for customer value, efficient operations, and continued product growth.

  • A clearer mobile journey with fewer decision points
  • A scalable product foundation for new services and markets
