Abstract: A computer-based method and system to enable a benefit plan sponsor to design a plurality of benefit plans to be offered to a given participant population and for determining the cost of sponsoring the plans for the participant population by predicting utilization for each of the plans based upon historical utilization data for the population, projected plan selections based upon presumed participant objectives, and/or survey or historical data from a sample of the given population or from preexisting statistical samples exhibiting analogous demographic characteristics to the given participant population relating to expected benefit utilization and plan preference criteria.

Abstract: The invention provides a computer-implemented method for creating a prescription for treatment of an injury or illness covered by a workers' compensation system, which facilitates on-line adjudication of a workers' compensation claim. The patient name, employer name and type and quantity of medication prescribed are input. Routing data including a processor identification number is retrieved from an employer database. The program outputs prescription data comprising the name of the patient, the type and quantity of medication prescribed, and the routing data. The prescription data is preferably NCPDP compliant and used by a pharmacy to route a workers' compensation claim and fill the prescription.
