DARWIN
Intelligent Medication Configuration Platform for Healthcare Enterprises
Business context and structural constraints
Healthcare organizations faced a critical bottleneck: every formulary change required weeks of backend development. Business teams were dependent on IT for configuration updates. DARWIN was conceived to democratize medication configuration while maintaining rigorous compliance standards.
The Solution
Architectural approach and implementation
DARWIN empowers pharmacy benefit managers to dynamically configure medication rules without engineering intervention. The platform handles 2.5 million medication adjudication decisions daily across 12 health plans, enabling 3,000+ formulary changes in its first year.
How we turned the challenge into a solution
Each stage formalizes uncertainty into a concrete engineering outcome
Audit → Dependency Map
Inventory of 17+ disparate systems, data flow mapping, identification of critical integration points and performance bottlenecks
Map → Unified Architecture
Design of event-driven microservice architecture with multi-region data residency and zero-trust security model
Architecture → Working Prototype
Document management MVP with FIDO2 authentication, AES-256 encryption, and basic workflow engine for pilot group
Prototype → Scalable Platform
Horizontal scaling to 160+ countries, multi-tenant isolation, AI document classification with 95% accuracy
Platform → Analytics Core
MyInsights recommendation engine, predictive SLA alerts, personalized delivery of regulatory updates
Core → Continuous Compliance
Automated retention policies for 160+ jurisdictions, document integrity chain, one-click audit report generation
