Abstract: A system and method are disclosed for determining eligibility of a card holder at a point of service by accessing personal identification information stored at a select application database. The system comprises a card holder identification card having a printed code identifying the card holder. A code server comprises a code database correlating card holder specific code record IDs and corresponding addresses associated with the select application database for providing personal identification information defining card holder eligibility. A processing device at the point of service is programmed to: read the card holder's printed code; convert the card holder's print code to a code record ID; and establish communication with the code server to transfer the card holder's code record ID to the code server. The code server is programmed to compare the received code record ID to the code database and return the address corresponding to the received code record ID to the processing device.

Abstract: A system is disclosed for insuring accountability of a provider at a point of service. The system comprises a card holder identification card having a printed code identifying the card holder. A processing device at the point of service is programmed to read the card holder's code and establish communication with the code server to transfer the card holder's code to the code server. The code server is programmed to compare the received code to the code database and return the address corresponding to the received code to the processing device. The processing device is programmed to use the return address to download the personal identification information defining card holder eligibility for display at the point of service and thereafter the processing device communicates with the application database indicating one performance of the service begins and ends.
