SOLUTION

INSIGHTS

Four insights that changed the roadmap

01

Lead with personalized pricing

Accurate pricing needed to feel central—not like an optional extra.

Accurate pricing needed to feel central-not like an optional extra.

02

Separate required information from filters

Filters above the census form distracted shoppers and increased abandonment.

03

Keep important actions visible

Pricing controls and next steps needed to remain easy to find.

04

Explain discounts in context

Household-discount messaging needed clearer language and guidance.

OVERVIEW

OVERVIEW

OVERVIEW

Medicare shoppers face a high-stakes, confusing decision: choosing between Medicare Supplement and Medicare Advantage, then finding the right plan, carrier, and price.

eHealth had a major advantage: as a licensed online insurance marketplace, it gave shoppers access to plans from multiple national and regional carriers, with Medicare Supplement plan types standardized across 47 states. But the existing experience was not doing enough to turn traffic into enrollments.

Our MVP goal was to rebrand and redesign the Medicare Supplement shopping experience so users could quickly see available plans in their area, compare options by plan type and carrier, and get accurate pricing based on their personal information.

The redesign focused on transparency, trust, and decision clarity - helping users understand what they were eligible for, compare real plan options side by side, and move forward with more confidence.

DESIGN PROCESS

CHALLENGE
