A concierge care team, in every member's
pocket

01 Overview

The membership lives in the app?

Hoag Compass is a membership concierge primary and preventative care program from Hoag Memorial Hospital Presbyterian, layered on top of insurance and built around proactive longevity care rather than sick visits. The app is where that promise gets delivered: it carries the member's personalized care plan, their health journey stages, advanced lab and genetic results, and the messaging channel to the people providing care.

That makes it a clinical surface, not a wellness app. Every screen holds protected health information, results members will read before a clinician explains them, and conversations that need to arrive reliably on both iOS and Android.

  • Personalized care plan and health journey as the product spine
  • Advanced lab panels covering 100+ biomarkers, plus genetic testing
  • Direct messaging with a care coordinator and medical assistant
  • Virtual and in-person appointment booking, in-app
  • Shipped on the App Store and Google Play (org.hoag.compass)
02 The Challenge

Continuous care is hard to deliver through a screen

Concierge care is defined by access and attention. Translating that into software means handling sensitive data carefully, making dense clinical results legible, and keeping a high-touch relationship alive between visits.

A —

Sensitive data on a consumer device

The app carries PHI, lab results and genetic testing outcomes. Data handling had to support encryption in transit and user-initiated deletion, with a Play Store data-safety declaration that matches reality.

B —

100+ biomarkers, one clear story

Advanced panels and genetic results are overwhelming raw. They had to be analyzed into a single custom care plan a member can actually act on.

C —

A care team, not a chatbot

Members message real coordinators, medical assistants, coaches and clinicians. Delivery, threading and context had to be dependable enough for clinical communication.

D —

Momentum between appointments

Preventative care only works if members keep going. The product needed structure that turns a long-term plan into things you can finish this quarter.

04 What We Built
Spotlight 01

Insurance and ID capture

Members upload an insurance card, search accepted providers, or continue without insurance, then capture their ID with a guided camera step.

Visit booking

Members choose a visit type across general and women's health categories, then pick a care team member, virtual or in-person format, and an available date and time.

Home and lab prep

The home screen greets members with an Up Next action and their named care team, then walks through pre-lab fasting instructions before confirmation.

05 Approach

Build for clinical trust first.

A membership product that holds genetic results earns attention differently than a consumer app. We designed around legibility, restraint and native platform behaviour.

01.
Make the plan the home screen

We anchored navigation to the care plan and journey stages rather than a feed. Members open the app with a question — what should I do next — and the first screen answers it.

02.
Translate results, don't dump them

Biomarker and genetic data is presented in plain language with clinical context, and always tied back to the care plan actions it informs. Depth is available; it isn't the default view.

03.
Treat messaging as clinical infrastructure

Care team threads were built with delivery, state and history handled conservatively — no clever ephemeral behaviour, no ambiguity about whether a message reached a human.

04.
Ship native on both platforms

iOS and Android were treated as first-class targets with platform-appropriate patterns, and a Play Store data-safety declaration written to match the app's real data behaviour.

03 Design

Calm, clinical, unmistakably Hoag.

Portrait-first layouts, generous type and a restrained palette keep sensitive results readable under stress — closer to a medical record than a fitness tracker.
