EasyAccess Health: Pioneering Healthcare with Flutter Web Development

‍Rising Mental Health Concerns in Japan

With an increasing number of people in Japan suffering from mental health issues, the traditional barriers to accessing counseling, such as scheduling difficulties and distance, have exacerbated the problem. In contrast to other countries, particularly the United States, where counseling is an integrated part of daily life and mental illness prevention, Japan has seen counseling as primarily for those with severe mental health conditions.

Project's Vision: Making Mental Health Care More Accessible

This project was initiated to transform the perception of counseling in Japan, making it more accessible and emphasizing preventive mental care, thus contributing to stress-related mental illness prevention.

Embracing Flutter Web Technology

Choosing Flutter Web for the development was a strategic decision that set EasyAccess Health apart. This technology enabled the seamless creation of a versatile platform that could be quickly adapted for iOS, Android, macOS, and Windows applications, leading to a rapid market launch and helping the client secure investments and build a user base efficiently.

Significant Cost and Time Efficiency

The utilization of Flutter Web technology led to a remarkable reduction in development and maintenance costs by up to 70%. This cost-efficiency was pivotal in the project's success, demonstrating the efficacy of Flutter Web in multi-platform development.

Challenges and Solutions in Mental Health Counseling

The client faced challenges in changing the perception of counseling in Japan, where it was seen as a last resort for severe mental illness. Additionally, the increasing demand for counseling services contrasted with the declining number of professionals available.

_{Innovative Corporate Wellness Integration}

To address these challenges, EasyAccess Health was integrated into corporate wellness programs, allowing employees to book counseling sessions easily, thus reducing their psychological burden.

Revolutionizing Counseling with Video Technology

Remote Counseling via In-house Technology built on top of Agora's Platform for Maximum compatibility

By incorporating video counseling accessible from anywhere with an internet connection, EasyAccess Health removed geographical and time barriers, using Agora for stable connections and WebSocket technology for seamless communication.

Designer's Insight

Creating a Welcoming User Interface

The design phase, though challenging due to time constraints, focused on developing a user-friendly and casual interface. The use of warm colors and rounded elements created a non-formal, inviting atmosphere for users, making counseling consultations more approachable.

Future Expansion and Vision

Broadening the Scope of Healthcare Services

Currently focused on mental health, EasyAccess Health plans to expand its services to other medical fields, including skin care, with a long-term goal of evolving into a comprehensive health management cloud service accessible to all.
