Timeline
Multi-surface healthcare commerce, patient portal, and operations platform delivery
At-home screening needed one path from education to results
The product had to guide families and account holders from screening education into ordering, account setup, patient intake, insurance, payment, kit registration, shipment tracking, clinician review, and results without splitting the experience across disconnected tools.
Public users needed clear product education, eligibility context, account creation, and multi-step ordering flows
Patients, clinicians, enterprises, and administrators needed separate portals with different controls and visibility
Insurance, address validation, payment, donation, promo, and kit-code workflows had to stay attached to each order
Operations teams needed CMS, order, product, FAQ, template, testimonial, settings, inventory, and report-support tools
A screening portal with a dedicated operations console
CareKit pairs a public ordering and patient experience with an administration console so users can order and manage tests while operations teams manage orders, accounts, content, inventory, results, and support workflows.
Public pages, screening pages, learning content, registration, login, account verification, order forms, insurance intake, payment, cart, and thank-you flows
Patient portal for dashboards, accounts, orders and results, privacy, research and surveys, and profile workflows
Clinician and enterprise portals for dashboards, account management, pending approvals, orders, inventory, and organization workflows
Admin modules for users, orders, products, CMS pages, FAQs, snippets, templates, testimonials, settings, and operational reporting
Product surfaces
What the platform brought together
The work spanned core product operations, daily user workflows, data-heavy coordination, and resilient platform management.
Public screening and ordering
The public site guides users from education and account setup into a structured order journey with patient, insurance, address, kit, cart, and payment steps.
Multi-step order forms for patient details, account holder information, insurance, shipping, billing, kit codes, cart review, and confirmation
Promo code, donation, recurring-frequency, address validation, city validation, and shopping cart behavior tied to the order flow
Patient, clinician, and enterprise portals
Authenticated dashboards keep each role focused on the right patients, orders, accounts, reports, and approval queues.
Patient dashboard, accounts, orders and results, privacy, about, research, and survey flows
Clinician account management, pending approvals, order detail, inventory management, and profile settings
Enterprise dashboards, account creation, patient management, enterprise detail, and order review workflows
Order, kit, result, and insurance operations
Operational screens turn orders into trackable workflows with status labels, kit registration, report history, approvals, cancellations, insurance claims, and result sharing.
Order lists, order detail, edit forms, approval/rejection, cancellation, reissue, and pending approval flows
Kit-code validation, register-kit dialogs, tracking states, report history, generated PDFs, and result sharing
Internationalization files and content services support multilingual and reusable portal copy
Buyer priorities
What mattered most to the people evaluating the platform
Prospective buyers want to know whether the work solved real workflow, adoption, reliability, data, and operations problems. These priorities shaped the product decisions.
Trustworthy healthcare intake
Healthcare users need reassurance and clarity, especially when entering family, patient, insurance, and payment details.
Step-based order screens separate patient data, insurance, address, payment, and confirmation into manageable moments
Validation helpers and exception tooltips reduce ambiguity during sensitive intake steps
Account verification and authenticated portal routes protect follow-up access to orders and results
Role-specific operations
Administrators, clinicians, enterprises, and patients needed different dashboards without duplicating the same order data in separate systems.
Route flags and layouts separate admin, clinician, enterprise, and patient navigation
Order queues and dashboards give operational users focused views of pending and confirmed activity
At-home test workflows are judged by whether users and staff can understand exactly where an order, kit, sample, and result stand.
Status labels cover order received, kit in transit, kit registered, sample movement, and sample received states
Tracking, report history, PDF generation, and result-sharing actions connect operations with user-facing updates
Inventory and kit actions help staff recover exceptions without leaving the platform
System model
How the platform connects roles, workflows, and product surfaces
The product architecture brings every role into the same operating model, with shared data moving cleanly between web, mobile, media, and notification layers.
Ordering to results workflow
A user moves from education, account setup, patient intake, insurance, payment, kit registration, lab movement, clinician review, and results.
Public portal and operations console
The patient-facing site and internal console share the same order, account, content, and result operating model.
Role-aware healthcare operations
Patients, clinicians, enterprise users, and administrators each receive the controls that match their workflow.
Technology
The Stack We Used And Why
The stack section is written for buyers who need to understand the product architecture, operational trade-offs, and long-term maintainability of the system.
Public web and patient portal
Used for public education, authenticated user flows, account setup, order forms, cart, payment, kit registration, and patient-facing results access.
Used for dense role-aware administration across users, orders, clinicians, enterprises, products, content, settings, inventory, and reporting workflows.
Used to support order lifecycle operations, insurance capture, address validation, payment handling, file upload, kit management, and result/report actions.
The public ordering experience and the operations console needed different information density, navigation patterns, and user expectations.
Next.js supported public education, landing pages, and order flows with route-level clarity
React Router and Material UI supported dense back-office tables, sidebars, filters, and forms
Shared API service patterns kept order, user, patient, insurance, and content actions consistent across surfaces
Why Workflow State Mattered
A lab-screening order is not a single checkout event. It moves through patient intake, insurance, payment, kit handling, shipping, sample movement, review, and results.
Order process helpers let the public flow guide users through the right step sequence
Status-specific UI helped patients and staff understand the next action
Admin actions gave support teams paths for approvals, registration, claims, cancellation, and result sharing
Why CMS Tools Were Included
Healthcare screening products need ongoing copy, FAQs, templates, testimonials, and settings updates without shipping code for every content change.
Page and FAQ tools let content teams maintain education and support material
Snippet and template modules supported reusable portal messaging
Product and app-setting screens kept operational configuration close to the order system
