Product Management Improvement Question: Innovative features for healthcare patient portal to boost engagement

Introduction

To increase user engagement and health management on Intermountain Healthcare's MyHealth patient portal, we need to identify innovative features that address user pain points and leverage emerging technologies. I'll analyze key user segments, prioritize pain points, and propose solutions that align with Intermountain's goals and industry trends.

Framework overview

You wanted to highlight your approach and make sure that interviewer is aligned

Step 1

Clarifying Questions

  • Looking at the product context, I'm thinking MyHealth might be at a critical growth stage where user needs are evolving. Could you help me understand where we are in the product lifecycle and what metrics are driving this improvement initiative?

Why it matters: Determines if we optimize for scale vs. feature expansion Expected answer: Mid-growth phase with rising customer acquisition costs Impact on approach: Would focus on retention and optimization over new features

  • Considering user behavior, I'm curious about cross-platform usage patterns. Can you share insights on how users typically interact with MyHealth across devices (mobile, desktop, wearables)?

Why it matters: Informs feature prioritization and integration strategies Expected answer: Mobile-first usage with increasing wearable adoption Impact on approach: Would prioritize mobile-optimized features and wearable integration

  • Regarding pain points and market position, how does MyHealth currently compare to competitors in terms of user satisfaction and feature set?

Why it matters: Identifies areas for differentiation and improvement Expected answer: Strong in basic features but lagging in advanced functionalities Impact on approach: Would focus on innovative, advanced features to leapfrog competitors

  • Thinking about company alignment, what are Intermountain's broader objectives for patient engagement beyond the portal itself?

Why it matters: Ensures solutions align with overall company strategy Expected answer: Aiming to reduce in-person visits and improve preventive care Impact on approach: Would prioritize telemedicine integration and proactive health management features

Tip

At this point, you can ask interviewer to take a 1-minute break to organize your thoughts before diving into the next step.
