Patent number: 11966983Abstract: Machine learning models can assess historical insurance claims data and prescription fulfillment records to reduce paybacks to prescription payers in the form of direct and indirect remuneration fees. A pharmacy computer receives prescription data and communicates at least a portion of the prescription data to a pharmacy benefit manager. The pharmacy computer receives a prescription benefit response back at the computerized application from the prescription payer software application. The pharmacy computer is configured to develop machine learning request data, selected from the prescription data and prescription benefit response data, and send the machine learning request data to machine learning software. The machine learning software calculates payback forecast data for the prescription data.Type: GrantFiled: June 3, 2022Date of Patent: April 23, 2024Assignee: Change Healthcare Holdings, LLCInventor: Chase Shelton

Patent number: 11544552Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product refine an automated coding model, such as for a medical chart. For each respective candidate code from a set of candidate codes, the method predicts a probability of the respective code being contained in a medical chart. The method also selects one of the candidate codes as being contained in the medical chart based upon the probability and removes the selected candidate code from the set of candidate codes. The method then repeatedly predicts the probability of a respective code being contained in the medical chart, selects one of the candidate codes based upon the predicted probability and removes the selected candidate code from the set of candidate codes. The method further determines a categorical crossentropy loss as to permit adjustment of one or more parameters of the automated coding model.Type: GrantFiled: March 29, 2019Date of Patent: January 3, 2023Assignee: CHANGE HEALTHCARE HOLDINGS, LLCInventors: Alex Londeree, Nick Giannasi, Adrian Lam, Adam Sullivan

Patent number: 11436529Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided for implementing an actor-critic model for processing a large document. The document is processed in smaller portions, and the information is accumulated or aggregated in a vector representation of the document. The vector representation may be reconfigured with each time step so that the vector representation includes an estimate of the most relevant information from the document processed thus far. The vector representation may be used to classify the document, such as by determining a primary and/or secondary diagnosis in a medical record. Feedback from the critic is provided in the form of a reward signal to the actor, which fine tunes its parameters and processes the different portions of the document. The actor-critic model may be trained with training data including documents and their known associated classifications.Type: GrantFiled: September 13, 2019Date of Patent: September 6, 2022Assignee: CHANGE HEALTHCARE HOLDINGS, LLCInventor: Alex Londeree
