Project Details
 
Healthaxis, Inc.
Digital Insurance
My first project at Healthaxis, this insurance portal gathers individual and small group data and gives the user a quote from various insurance companies. My work on the quoting pages improved response time by 30%, and reduced the lines of code in the overall project by 50%. This was accomplished with the construction of common templates and global functions that are used throughout the site.

    After all relevant demographics are compiled, some very complex number crunching takes place on the server to determine the current rates from a multitude of different insurance companies. All of this data is them sent back to the ASP application in an XML file. I then searched that XML file for relevant data and display it to the user via XSL stylesheets. The page was required to be viewable down to 3.0 browsers, so browser-specific code had to be written to compensate for the lack of DHTML support in some browsers.
