Abstract: An online platform and methods sort prescription drug claims for alternate fulfillment and/or discounted pricing. An electronic request for a prescription is forwarded to third-party prescription providers. In reply, proposed prices are received for the prescription. A computer processor forwards the received proposed prices for the prescription to an artificial intelligence engine. The artificial intelligence engine determines a selected one of the third-party prescription providers, based on the proposed prices. In addition, the determined selected third-party prescription provider and the proposed price are routed to the end electronic terminal in for example, a pharmacy. Embodiments include finding an alternate provider in the event of a rejected prescription claim.
