California Health Benefits Review Program

The California Health Benefits Review Program supports legislative decision-making in California with rigorous independent analyses of the medical effectiveness, cost impact, and public health impact of bills related to health insurance benefits.

Their previous website was using a proprietary CMS that was clunky, difficult to navigate and find content, and wasn’t easy or intuitive for CHBRP staff to edit

The outcome of this project is a modern, user-friendly, and accessible digital hub that provides public access to all CHBRP analyses and legislation that is examined. The new site is based on Drupal, a super flexible enterprise-grade and open-source Content Management System.

Key Highlights:

• Simplified Information Architecture - We created a new information architecture for the new site, greatly improving navigation and findability of its content including the analyses archive and various other publications and resources
• New Identity - Our work involved the development of a new CHBRP logo, the incorporation of California's official colors into the style guide, and the selection of captivating imagery that showcases the state's iconic landmarks and its official flower
• Content Migration - We migrated all of the existing content from the old proprietary CMS to Drupal
• WCAG AA Accessibility - We implemented keyboard accessibility, tested with screen readers, and scanned the site using Siteimprove in order to meet the accessibility requirements of the campus
