Patent number: 8326656Abstract: A system and method for determining eligibility for reimbursement for medical claims for patients may be implemented with computer software which compares a service provider's patient information against a benefit provider's database of covered persons to determine if the patient is eligible for benefits. The service provider records may be compressed by grouping all of the medical claims relating to a particular patient into one cluster represented by a composite medical claim, which may be used to query the benefit provider databases to determine if the patient is recognized. If the patient is recognized, every record within the cluster may be checked against the benefit provider's database to determine whether one or more patient medical claims are eligible for reimbursement.Type: GrantFiled: September 13, 2010Date of Patent: December 4, 2012Assignee: E-Scan Data Systems, Inc.Inventors: Peter Douglas Beery, Michael L. Considine, Bruce C. MacArtney-Filgate, John William Wester

Patent number: 6480894Abstract: A system and method are provided for maintaining states for user sessions with a web system. Maintaining state includes receiving a request from a user that initiates a user session with the web system and processing the request to provide a web page to the user. Session data (220) representing a state of the user session is stored in memory in a global session server (212). Then, for each subsequent request associated with the user session, the subsequent request is received, and the session data (220) is retrieved from the global session server (212). The subsequent request is then processed using the session data (220) to provide a web page to the user, and the session data (220) is changed to reflect the processing. The session data (220) is then updated in the global session server (212). The global session server (212) thereby stores session data (220) unique to each user session accumulated over multiple web transactions.Type: GrantFiled: June 13, 2000Date of Patent: November 12, 2002Assignee: i2 Technologies US, Inc.Inventors: Howard R. Courts, Neil K. Dholakia, Craig L. Dunn, Brian J. Huddleston, Erik L. Huddleston, Bruce C. Macartney-Filgate, Timothy J. McHyde, Jacob Poorte

Patent number: 6360249Abstract: An enterprise interaction hub (10) is disclosed which includes a number of layers that interact to manage an enterprise web system. An interaction layer (12) receives requests to the enterprise web system and returns responsive web pages. A presentation layer (14) is coupled to the interaction layer (12) and generates the responsive web pages. A business layer (16) is coupled to the presentation layer (14) and provides business logic for use by the presentation layer (14) in generating the responsive web pages. An integration layer (18) is coupled to the business layer (16) and interfaces with existing legacy data to provide the legacy data to the business layer (16). A trend collection layer (32) monitors and accumulates historical information from the interaction layer (12), the presentation layer (14), the business layer (16) and the integration layer (18). The trend collection layer (32) also stores the historical information in a trend database (36).Type: GrantFiled: June 26, 2000Date of Patent: March 19, 2002Assignee: i2 Technologies US, Inc.Inventors: Howard R. Courts, Neil K. Dholakia, Craig L. Dunn, Brian J. Huddleston, Erik L. Huddleston, Bruce C. Macartney-Filgate, Timothy J. McHyde, Jacob P. Poorte
