Contact Us page redesign

From Hackathon concept to Aetna Health’s 2021 roadmap

Previous Aetna Contact Us page

What problems were we solving?

  • The current Contact Us page was an unorganized collection of phone numbers and addresses.

  • Members didn’t have a way to find answers to common questions about their health insurance.

  • The original page was sterile and uninviting.

Our design process

  • To facilitate brainstorming, collaboration, and content iterations, we chose Figma.

  • We completed a competitive and comparative analysis of well-designed and informative Contact Us pages.

  • Our team interviewed other designers to gather customer background info and FAQs we could apply to the page.

  • We only had two days to work on our project, so we designed for the most commonly used breakpoint (desktop) at the time.

My Hackathon role

  • I submitted the Contact Us redesign idea to the Hackathon committee and garnered interest from other designers I hadn't worked with yet.

  • I was the SME on voice & tone and created all UX content, other than the FAQs we reused from another team’s project.

  • I consulted with a lead UX designer on a related project to discover the history of chat and secure messaging features.

  • I presented our concept to over 100 employees of Product, Design, and Engineering.

The results

  • We won the “Immediate Member Impact” category.

  • Our Contact Us page inspired a new support page on the 2021 roadmap.

  • Our promotion of Figma helped the Aetna Health Design Ops team move from Sketch to Figma.

  • Although our design didn’t exactly follow brand guidelines, our dog was a hit and brightened everyone’s day.
