The Virtual Care Group has already transformed healthcare accessibility at over fifty campuses nationwide—enabling thousands of students to access urgent care, mental health services, and comprehensive health records, all at no cost to them. By partnering with Chop Dawg, The Virtual Care Group will reimagine its digital platform, ensuring every college student experiences world-class virtual healthcare through a modern, intuitive interface.
Founded by serial entrepreneur Danny Zusman, The Virtual Care Group provides affordable, high-quality healthcare to students nationwide—simplifying how they access medical services. Through partnerships with colleges and universities, students enjoy zero-cost consultations, telehealth appointments, and HIPAA-compliant messaging with board-certified physicians, psychiatrists, and behavioral health counselors. Fueled by an unwavering mission to create healthier campuses, The Virtual Care Group stands ready to modernize its platform to better serve today’s digital-savvy generations.
Though The Virtual Care Group already offered telehealth services to college students, the overall user experience fell short—leading to underutilization. Students found it cumbersome to schedule urgent care or psychiatric appointments via a dated, unintuitive interface. The mobile design further hindered quick scheduling and account setup, while limited self-service tools made it difficult to access medical records or choose pharmacies. On top of this, The Virtual Care Group needed to expand platform capabilities without compromising HIPAA compliance or data security. Chop Dawg stepped in to revitalize the platform, ensuring it could serve a new generation of students seeking flexible, affordable healthcare solutions.
Building a Comprehensive Digital Solution: A Collaborative Journey
Collaborating closely with The Virtual Care Group, Chop Dawg set out to build a modern healthcare platform that resonates with today’s college demographic. We began with thorough discovery and design sessions to pinpoint user pain points—spanning video consultations, mental health scheduling, and secure EMR integration. Armed with these insights, our team created wireframes and high-fidelity prototypes in iterative workshops, prioritizing minimal friction, accessibility, and consistent branding across both web and mobile.
To prepare for future scalability, we advised on HIPAA-compliant architectures capable of supporting advanced admin controls and potential new vendor partnerships. Weekly check-ins, Slack channels, and Jira-based project management kept The Virtual Care Group’s stakeholders engaged at each milestone, resulting in a user-friendly, secure telehealth platform built to thrive in a rapidly evolving healthcare landscape.
From real-time telehealth visits to HIPAA-compliant messaging, this next-generation app delivers a complete healthcare experience that keeps pace with students’ schedules and needs:
Students schedule real-time telehealth visits via phone or webcam for everything from minor injuries to mental health consultations—gaining immediate support without leaving campus.
A secure, in-app inbox lets students send medical questions and documents directly to doctors. Automated notifications and push alerts keep them informed of doctor replies, appointment reminders, and health updates.
Through simple forms, students maintain or update their medical histories, prescriptions, and allergies. Integration with MyTelemedicine’s EMR ensures data is consistent and easily accessible for follow-up care.
The refined UI/UX suggests relevant services, reminds students to book follow-ups, and guides them toward the right specialist—encouraging consistent engagement and preventative care.
Behind the scenes, an intuitive admin platform equips The Virtual Care Group with the control and insights needed to efficiently manage campuses, support students, and continuously refine telehealth offerings:
Comprehensive dashboards display appointment usage, top prescriptions, average response times, and more—helping The Virtual Care Group refine its offerings and showcase value to partner campuses.
A secure backend interface for adding schools, uploading student rosters, tracking activation rates, and triggering reminder emails. Admins can quickly onboard new campuses and keep user data organized.
Chop Dawg’s support went well beyond design and coding. We offered:
From encryption to robust role-based access controls, we ensured data remains protected under stringent HIPAA regulations. Our approach featured server-side encryption, secure SFTP for bulk student uploads, and careful user permissions.
We collaborated on architecting integrations with MyTelemedicine’s API and future EMR expansions—enabling consistent, real-time medical updates across all devices, while securing data at every step.
Chop Dawg advised on seamless campus rollouts, demonstrating new features to administrators and guiding how to maximize student uptake. We equipped The Virtual Care Group with the tools needed to expand swiftly in the years to come.
Real-time Slack communication, structured Jira sprints, and weekly Zoom meetings provided transparency and alignment. Consistent feedback loops ensured that The Virtual Care Group’s stakeholders shaped crucial milestones. By staying agile, we adapted to updated telehealth regulations, campus expectations, and user feedback—crafting a refined healthcare solution for the modern college environment.
Early user tests revealed a marked improvement in user satisfaction and quicker registration. Even non-tech-savvy students found scheduling and provider communication straightforward and convenient.
Admin dashboards provide instant metrics—spotlighting usage trends, identifying high-demand time slots, and quantifying ROI for partner schools. This intelligence helps The Virtual Care Group continually refine its offerings.
With an upgraded infrastructure and extended admin controls, The Virtual Care Group can effortlessly expand to more campuses, integrate additional healthcare vendors, and adapt to evolving telemedicine regulations—all while maintaining top-tier security.
Chop Dawg is incredibly professional, always available for us every step of the way, and their attention to detail has truly impressed our team. They’ve been resourceful and attentive throughout the process, ensuring that everything is running precisely as intended with zero hiccups. I would highly recommend their services to anyone; their hands-on approach made me feel comfortable, and I would definitely work with Chop Dawg again for future projects.
