Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional systems inaccurately target users for enrollment in complex care programs, leading to ineffective engagement and increased resource utilization, resulting in higher medical costs for both individuals and insurance providers.

Innovation Solution

The implementation of predictive techniques and machine learning models that analyze user data, including demographic information and medical history, to accurately identify candidates for complex care programs and determine the most effective engagement methods, such as notification types and content, to facilitate timely enrollment.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If conventional systems are used to target users for enrollment in complex care programs, then the enrollment process is simple, but the accuracy of identifying suitable candidates is low

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveaccuracy of identifying suitable candidatesVSAvoidcomplexity of enrollment system
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary analysis of user data including demographic information, medical history, and cost profiles before enrollment decisions are made. Predictive models are pre-trained on historical data to identify patterns indicating which users will benefit from complex care programs, allowing accurate candidate identification before actual enrollment occurs.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces manual or rule-based targeting systems with machine learning models and predictive analytics. These computational systems automatically analyze multiple data dimensions and generate enrollment recommendations, substituting conventional administrative processes with intelligent algorithms that improve accuracy while managing complexity through automation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

2Productivity

If inaccurate targeting methods are used, then the enrollment process is faster, but resource utilization increases due to ineffective engagement

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveenrollment efficiencyVSAvoidresource utilization
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements feedback loops where outcomes of enrollment decisions are continuously monitored and fed back into the predictive models. This allows the system to learn from successful and unsuccessful enrollments, improving future targeting accuracy and reducing wasted resources on ineffective engagements while maintaining efficient processing through automated decision-making.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The patent dynamically adjusts targeting parameters and engagement strategies based on predictive model outputs. Instead of using fixed criteria, the system modifies enrollment thresholds, notification methods, and engagement approaches according to individual user profiles and predicted responsiveness, optimizing both efficiency and resource utilization.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Ease of operation

If generic engagement methods are used for all users, then the system is easier to operate, but the effectiveness of enrollment outreach is reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesimplicity of engagement processVSAvoideffectiveness of enrollment outreach
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system applies local quality by tailoring engagement methods to individual user characteristics and predicted preferences. Different notification channels, messaging styles, and outreach strategies are deployed based on specific user profiles identified through predictive analytics, rather than applying uniform approaches to all potential enrollees.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

Solution Approach 2:

The patent creates a universal platform that can adapt multiple engagement strategies within a single system. The core enrollment system remains standardized and easy to operate, while incorporating flexible, multi-functional engagement capabilities that automatically select and deploy appropriate outreach methods based on user-specific predictions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

AI summary

Systems and methods for complex care tools are disclosed. For example, user data associated with users that have benefited from enrollment in a complex care program may be utilized to predict additional users that are also likely to benefit from enrollment. The presently disclosed systems and methods may determine reductions in cost profiles associated with enrolled users that exceed a reduction value, where the reduction value indicates the intended benefit of the complex care program has been achieved. The system may then associate user data of such users with the reduction value. As such, the system may utilize this data to predict additional users that are likely to benefit from enrollment. In this way, the system may engage such users to promote enrollment so that care costs may be reduced.
