AI-powered Medication Adherence App

AI-powered Medication Adherence App

Problem

How many among us have forgotten to take our medication course as prescribed by our primary care physician? How many people do you know with chronic conditions that forget to or are unable to properly maintain their medication adherence due to lifestyle factors?

Current medication reminder apps only provide static reminders at fixed times. We often find ourselves too busy or too stressed to pay attention to or care about such notifications.

The app, MediMind AI, will go beyond reminders to become an intelligent health companion. It will learn from user behavior, health history, and adherence patterns to proactively support medication management, side-effect tracking, and habit formation — powered by personalized AI coaching.

UX Research

To gain a better understanding of the pain points experienced by both patients and doctors, I conducted a series of surveys. 

Patient Research

The patient survey had 12 questions to learn how people navigated their daily medications.

Doctor Research

Simultaneously, I also conducted a survey and an in-depth interview of a doctor to understand what they would and wouldn’t appreciate as part of their check-in process. The survey was 16 questions, and the follow-up interview ran for 15 minutes.

How often do you forget to take your meds?
What usually causes you to miss a dose?
Would you feel comfortable receiving health tips or medication insights from an AI assistant?

MVP Objectives

Caregiver Mode

Summarizes trends for caregivers without breaching privacy (e.g., “User has missed 3 evening doses this week”), requires caregiver input

Pill Interaction Verifier

Using medically approved data, the AI can check pill interactions and advise against adverse drug combinations

Side Effect Journal

Users log symptoms; AI detects patterns and gives suggestions (e.g., “Consider taking med after eating”)

Adherence Prediction

Works in the background by analyzing data and predicts  when a user is likely to miss a dose (e.g., weekends, mood dips) and adjusts reminder style/timing

Add Prescription

Two options will be available. One to manually enter dosages information, another that allows user to take a picture of their prescription pamphlet and auto-fill the data.

Automatic Refills

AI keeps track of refill and expiry dates (as entered) and orders refill from local pharmacy when user is running low, user will be prompted to complete the transaction

MVP Objectives

User Trust in AI Products

In order to ensure users can trust in the program, there are a few considerations that need to be applied. These primarily center around privacy, clarity and communicated functionality of the end product.

Quiet Assistant

The application should not present itself or its capabilities as super-human, but rather as a quiet assistant that runs in the background and assists only as needed. Think butler rather than supercomputer.

Respect Privacy

The data will need to be stored locally, on the device being used to run the application. Adhering to ethical guidelines and data protection policies will also be crucial to maintaining confidentiality. 

Proper Guidance

Understanding the app's capabilities and limitations will prevent users from asking it to complete tasks outside its purview and inevitably becoming disappointed, thus leading to algorithm aversion.

Transparent Loop

Having a human-in-the-loop system to verify and correct the AI as it analyzes user data will rectify any misleading statements it makes while also training the AI to do better in the future.
