The Story
Harmonic Health, a company funded by Redesign Health and born from personal caregiving experiences, is rethinking care for dementia patients by empowering both patients and caregivers throughout their difficult journey. With a commitment to advancing dementia care through a holistic understanding of patient symptoms and coordinated care teams, Harmonic Health utilizes multiple data systems and clinical assessment tools to build comprehensive patient profiles and develop personalized care paths. Redesign Health relied on Able’s partnership to provide embedded product design, engineering, and business-building support to portfolio companies like Harmonic Health during their early launch phases.
Partnership with Able
Able worked closely with Harmonic Health’s executive team as their product development partner. Harmonic Health and Able created a clear mission to launch the first version of the product to scale their operations and bring value to their clinicians as quickly as possible.
Our team, comprising of product strategy, design and engineering talent, collaborated closely with Harmonic’s executive and clinical team to translate the vision and care model into product requirements, build-ready designs, an MVP roadmap, a synchronized data system, and support an iterative clinical care model.
Working together, we identified the main product goals and developed the solutions:
Map Patient Data Create the patient data system by mapping patient data across multiple sources, including the product database, Healthie (EHR), Zus (FHIR), and Awell (assessment tools)
Design Paths Bring early value to clinicians by designing intuitive paths to find patient data and customized appointment guides.
Support Iteration Support iteration in the clinical process through integration with automated tools to build and modify care paths with little engineering support.
The work was accomplished through an initial four-week discovery and definition phase, followed by a five-month iterative design and build cycle, to launch a production-ready application within six months. This process enabled Harmonic Health to refine its evolving clinical process and recruit new potential healthcare partners.
