Medicit: Streamlining High-Volume Healthcare Infrastructure
How I architected a booking engine to balance walk-ins, rural patients, and VIPs for doctors seeing 40+ patients daily.

1. The Problem: The "Throughput Crisis"
The Reality: Managing 40+ patients per doctor daily in a mix of pre-booked appointments, walk-ins, and emergency VIPs.
The Chaos: Lack of organized scheduling meant clinicians were overwhelmed, patient wait times were unpredictable, and rural patients often traveled hours only to find no available slots.
The Niche: Health-Tech & Operational Infrastructure.
2. The Challenge: Operational Balancing
Even an MVP required strong provider buy-in to prove it could handle the delicate balance of Digital Bookings vs. Physical Walk-ins without disrupting the clinic's flow.
3. The Solution: Streamlined Provider Workflows
Dynamic Slot Management: Built core modules to validate workflows through closed-beta testing, allowing for the flexible integration of various patient types into a single digital queue.
Digital-First Prescriptions: Automated the "after-care" journey with e-prescriptions to reduce administrative friction and ensure patients followed through on their health plans.
Gamified Preventive Care: Designed a points-based system for daily health tasks to drive long-term engagement and shift patient behavior from "reactive" to "preventive".
4. The Impact:
Efficiency & Validation: Validated core workflows with 5 pilot providers and 1,000+ test bookings pre-launch.
