Social Health

The solution

SocialHealth is divided into two panels, one for the patient and another for the doctor. The patient can fill out their medical history, check the doctor’s bio and their certificates, choose the doctor and book a visit. While booking, they enter their symptoms and pay for the consultation. When the time of consultation comes, they are connected with the doctor via a video call. After the consultation, they receive the proper recommendations and prescriptions for the medicines.
In their panel, the doctors can set their working hours and breaks, as well as access to a calendar with all planned consultations. They can check the patient’s personal detail, medical history, and symptoms. Thanks to the calendar view, they have quick access to all planned video calls. After each consultation, they can write a prescription for the patient.
To save precious time, we've implemented the MVP as a PWA (Progressive Web App), so that we didn't have to wait for approval from Google Play and the Apple Store. Of course, the app is responsive and also works well on desktops. It was also very important to create a fully secure application, so all connections and patient data are encrypted.
What technology have we chosen? React on the front-end and Ruby on the back-end. Thanks to that, we were able to reuse some code from our internal repository, as cutting time here and there was key. Also, we decided to use Material Design components, so instead of the looks we could spend more of our limited time on the UX part of the application. Total project time: 532h within 14 days.
