  • Publication number: 20230010687
    Abstract: A claim adjudication system including an automatic adjudication pipeline that uses pipeline rules to automatically adjudicate a claim associated with a benefit plan at one or more stages. The automatic adjudication pipeline can redirect the claim to a user interface for manual review when a pipeline rule associated with a manual review condition is triggered. The user interface can present information about the claim relevant to the manual review condition in an integrated format, including highlighting the reasons for the manual review. A user can evaluate the claim in the user interface and provide user input that addresses the manual review condition, and the claim can be routed back to the automatic adjudication pipeline. The user input can also be used as training data for machine learning to adjust pipeline rules that are used to automatically process claims and to redirect future claims for manual review.

  • Patent number: 11176607
    Abstract: Techniques for optimizing capital loan offers for merchants to maximize a potential benefit of the capital loans to the merchants. A service provider may receive merchant data and/or transaction data from a merchant. The service provider may determine merchant characteristics associated with the merchant based on the merchant data and/or transaction data. The service provider may associate the merchant with a merchant group, based on the merchant characteristics. The service provider may access data corresponding to capital loans previously offered to and/or accepted by merchants in the merchant group, to determine predictive factors of successful loans. Based on the predictive factors, the service provider may generate a capital loan for the merchant with a high probability of positive impact on a merchant business. The service provider may transmit a capital loan oiler to the merchant at a time determined to maximize acceptance and optimize a growth of the merchant business.
