Launching the central notification service

Notifications are one of the biggest hooks to drive product adoption. Most often you may be on Facebook, or Instagram or Linkedin because of some notification and you might end up spending more time on it once you are on the application. It’s key to bring the user to the application as much as possible. Apart from this, notifications will help the innovaccer users across care managers, providers etc. focus only on the job at their hand. Notification will reduce the cognitive load and remind them to take action as and when needed. This will help them be productive, as the number of unread notifications will be a lagging indicator of one’s productivity, just like the unread emails on our inbox is an indication of pending jobs to be performed.
