What pulls against what

  • required information vs. perceived effort
  • advance clarity vs. page overload
  • funnel recovery vs. data completeness

What is at stake

A small late-flow surprise is stopping patients after they have found care. Clearer expectations could recover appointments quickly

Why Headway

At Headway, small moments of uncertainty can often determine whether a patient reaches care.

This is the setup. The work is inside.

Running it puts you in the room: the full situation and its constraints, stakeholders who push back in their own words, and the decisions that are yours to make. What you produce becomes a Day One Plan — work you can show someone instead of describing.
