Standard Occupational Classification (SOC): Web and Digital Interface Designers

Web and digital interface designers play an important role in the healthcare industry by designing user-friendly and accessible digital interfaces for healthcare organizations, including hospitals, clinics, and insurance companies. These interfaces can be used for a variety of purposes, such as providing information about medical conditions and treatments, facilitating online appointment scheduling, or allowing patients to access their medical records and communicate with their healthcare providers. Web and digital interface designers in the healthcare industry must have a strong understanding of both design principles and healthcare regulations, such as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), to ensure that sensitive patient information is protected. They must also be able to design interfaces that are accessible and usable by a diverse range of patients and healthcare providers, regardless of their technological proficiency or disabilities.
