  • Patent number: 11582348
    Abstract: Systems and methods for intelligently routing a member of an organization to a single point-of-contact within an optimized, secure network to address all the member's healthcare needs are described. The disclosed intelligent routing configurations transform and process, in real-time, vast amounts of member data to generate aggregated diagnoses and a member score specific to each member's household. The scores, among other things, are used to determine an identification of special needs and an appropriate advocate within the organization to route the member, and its account file containing real-time member and household level data.

  • Patent number: 11557220
    Abstract: A user computing entity executes application program code to cause display of an IUI via a user interface of the user computing entity. The IUI comprises an action list comprising one or more action items corresponding to one or more team members of a team. The action items are automatically ordered based on one or more action priorities. At least one of the action items corresponds to a coaching opportunity and a recommendation for responding thereto. The coaching opportunity is automatically identified using a recommendation model trained using machine learning based at least in part on performance data corresponding to a plurality of key performance indicator metrics. The recommendation for responding to the coaching opportunity is determined using the recommendation model and based on the performance data. The recommendation model is trained using information regarding previous handlings of coaching opportunities and corresponding outcome indicators for a cluster of teams.

  • Patent number: 11210742
    Abstract: Healthcare costs accumulated across a plurality of claims systems are managed using a centralized accumulator, which receives cost accumulator data for adjudicated claims from multiple sending claim systems. An accumulator record type is identified from the cost accumulator data and used to generate a cross-reference record. The record type includes an adjudicated claim. A routing message is generated for at least one receiving claim system according to the identified accumulator record type, the cost accumulator data received from the sending claim system, and an identity of the at least one receiving claim system. In response to sending the routing message to the receiving claim system, an acknowledgement is received, which is used to update the cross-reference record by the processor.
