Abstract: In one general aspect, a computer system can include an input data parser configured to receive a plurality of input values from an application for a social benefit, and a first phase module configured to determine a first result based on a first phase of benefit decision processing using a first input value from the plurality of input values, and configured to trigger processing associated with a second phase of benefit decision processing based on the first input value from the plurality of input values satisfying a phase triggering condition. The computer system can include a second phase module configured to receive the first result from the first phase module, and configured to determine a second result based on the second phase of benefit decision processing using the first result and a second input value from the plurality of input values.

Abstract: Beneficiary successor planning is performed by the examination of beneficiary data from a new benefits request and determining available succession benefit plans. The successor planning includes re-using existing beneficiary data associated with the request as well as determining the current requested benefits plan. From this information, the successor planning includes generating successor benefit plans which can re-use the beneficiary information that is available and may also indicate triggering events that, when these events occur, would render the successor plan in effect. Through this planning, manual data entry is reduced and the successor benefit plans are automatically generated.
