  • Publication number: 20160321406
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are provided for determining patient eligibility for one or more types of sponsored healthcare services and providing notifications thereof. An example healthcare service is high-risk medication monitoring. A program sponsor may provide an indication of a high-risk prescription drug in connection with which a patient may be eligible for medication monitoring. The program sponsor may also provide an indication of an alternative prescription drug that may be used for treating the same health condition for which the high-risk drug is used. Upon receipt of a healthcare claim transaction that includes a claims processor identifier associated with program sponsor and a prescription drug identifier that identifies the high-risk drug, a number of one or more prior healthcare claim transactions corresponding to dispensing of the high-risk drug to the same patient may be determined.

  • Publication number: 20160321410
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are provided for determining patient eligibility for one or more types of sponsored healthcare services and providing notifications thereof. Healthcare claim transaction data may be received from a healthcare provider computer on behalf of a healthcare provider. The healthcare claim transaction data may be determined to satisfy one or more eligibility parameters specified by a healthcare service sponsor for determining a patient's eligibility for a healthcare service. An eligibility data record may be generated indicating the patient's eligibility for the healthcare service. A subsequent healthcare claim transaction may trigger generation and transmission of an eligibility notification message to a healthcare provider. The eligibility notification message may indicate eligibility of the patient for the healthcare service.
