HealthcareClient Communication & Experience3MediumNurse$ implied
A nurse accidentally provided a patient with a physician's personal phone number instead of the outpatient clinic number, leading to an inappropriate call and fear of disciplinary action.
The directory did not clearly distinguish between personal and professional contact information, causing a privacy breach and communication error.

Workarounds Described
- Looked up the doctor's info in a general directory that included personal numbers

App Concept
Provider Contact Directory
A centralized, access-controlled directory that clearly labels each contact type (personal, clinic, emergency) and restricts sharing of personal numbers unless explicitly authorized. It prevents accidental disclosure by guiding users through the correct contact selection for patient-facing communications.
Key Features
- Clear labeling of contact types (personal, office, clinic, on-call)
- Role-based access controls to hide personal numbers from non-authorized staff
- Searchable directory with verification step before sharing with patients
- Audit logs of who accessed which contact information
Target Users: Nurses and administrative staff in hospitals and clinics who need to share provider contact information with patients.
Revenue Model: $5 per user/month subscription for healthcare facilities, with volume discounts.
