Problem Solving
MedSplain tackles the core issues of medical confusion, language barriers, and access to relevant information—empowering patients to make informed health decisions and enhancing their overall healthcare experience.
Here are the breakdown of the top 3 painpoints users are facing and how they got resolved.
Difficulty Understanding Medical Terminology
Previous Pain Point
Patients often struggled to make sense of complex medical jargon shared by doctors or during clinical encounters, leading to confusion and anxiety about their health.
Resolution
MedSplain offers real-time clarification of medical terminology to patients, including smart call summaries with explanations in plain language and instant term lookup—making it easier for users to understand diagnoses, treatments, and next steps.
Language Barriers in Healthcare Conversations
Previous Pain Point
Non-native speakers or those with limited medical language proficiency could not fully understand or participate in medical conversations, resulting in miscommunication and poorer outcomes.
Resolution
MedSplain provides on-demand video chat translation and real-time medical language translation during appointments, bridging the communication gap so that patients can receive care in their preferred language and truly comprehend their clinicians.
Lack of Accessible, On-Demand Medical Information
Previous Pain Point
Patients had no easy way to revisit what was discussed in a consultation or access clarifications after the appointment, often forgetting key instructions or information.
Resolution
With features like recorded call replays, smart summaries of each session, and a history of previous interactions, patients can review medical advice, instructions, and terminology anytime, improving understanding and compliance with care plans.
