Overview:
In this architectural kata, participants will step into the shoes of a software architect tasked with designing a modern healthcare management system for a rapidly growing provider, MedSecure. The challenge is to create a system that integrates patient records, appointment scheduling, billing, and telemedicine while ensuring robust security, compliance with regulations, scalability, and cost-efficiency.

Key Takeaways:
Participants will learn how to navigate complex architectural decisions, balance competing priorities, and design systems that are not only technically sound but also aligned with business goals. This kata will sharpen their skills in the comfort of trade-off analysis, plus the high level of different architecture alternatives—key competencies for any future architect.
