  • Publication number: 20230367327
    Abstract: Methods and systems for prescription drug shipping selection are provided. The methods and systems include operations comprising: obtaining, by a server, activity data from a plurality of devices associated with a location, the activity data representing different types of activities that take place at the location over a threshold period of time; aggregating, by the server, the activity data to generate a location-based presence model for the location, the location-based presence model indicating likelihoods that a person is present at the location at a plurality of different time windows; and identifying, by the server, based on the location-based presence model, a time window for delivery of a perishable item to the location.

  • Publication number: 20230317281
    Abstract: Targeted medical intervention system comprises a processor that performs operations comprising selecting target user and generating targeted subset from population of users. To generate the targeted subset, the processor, compares each of the medical claim histories of the population of users to the target medical claim history based on similarity, frequency, and recency; generates a similarity score, a frequency score, and a recency score for each of the plurality of users; and selects the users to be included in the targeted subset based on the similarity score, the frequency score, and the recency score. The processor then monitors, for a period of time, the target medical claim history in comparison with medical claim histories to detect an anomaly in the target medical claim history; and causes an electronic communication to be displayed by a client device that comprises initiation of an intervention to be performed. Other embodiments are disclosed herein.
