Challenges

Challenges

One of the first challenges the team aimed to overcome is the lack of existing infrastructure in the telemedicine space. The demand for the digital expansion in the medical field, particularly in gynecology, has grown a tremendous amount post-Covid 19.


To find footing within telemedicine itself has also proven itself to be a big challenge. How does it work? Who is supposed to pay for the fees?

Workshop

Workshop

In order to gain some personal insights into the minds of the people affected, we have invited the participants to a workshop to complete a set of tasks and discuss the results. The goal is to close the gap between medical professionals, designers and the future users and to develop an understanding for each other.
