ActiveUS12573398B2Automatic exchangesSpeech recognitionEngineeringInteractive voice response system
Techniques are disclosed that relate to a computer system implementing a conversational artificial intelligence platform. The computer system may receive a request that includes text data specifying an utterance of a user. The computer system determines, form the utterance, an intent of the user. The computer system selects a first virtual agent to handle the request based on the determined intent. The computer system routes the text data and subsequent text data of the request to the first virtual agent for handling. The computer system receives, from the first virtual agent, a message that the determined intent is incorrect, the message including state information indicative of actions taken by the first virtual agent relative to the request. The computer system selects a second virtual agent to handle the request based on the state information. The computer system may receive input from an interactive voice response system or another channel.

Automated refill order system and method thereof

A method is described for controlling operations of an automated refill system (AFS) to support automated communications with a plurality of interactive voice response (IVR) systems in fulfillment of a prescription order. Upon receiving a request message to refill a medicinal prescription order from a first IVR system, the AFS is configured to determine whether it is able to communicate with the first IVR system associated with a first pharmacy identified in the request message. Thereafter, the AFS determines whether the first IVR system associated with the first pharmacy provides a medication identified in the request message at a lowest cost. If so, the AFS continues operability with the first IVR system. Otherwise, the AFS selects a second IVR system associated with a second pharmacy to handle the refill order when the second pharmacy can provide the medication at a lowest cost.

Arrangements for pre-authenticating users to interactive voice response (IVR) systems are provided. In some examples, a user may initiate, via an application executing on a mobile device of the user, a telephone call to an IVR system. A computing platform may intercept the call and may generate a one-time passcode (OTP). The OTP may be appended to the telephone number as a suffix and the telephone call may be initiated with the IVR system using the telephone number and appended suffix. The IVR system may extract the OTP and may validate the OTP. If the OTP is validated, the call may be initiated as a pre-authenticated call in which the IVR system might not request authentication data from the user. If the OTP is not validated, the call may be initiated as a standard call in which the IVR system may request authentication data from the user.
