Devices, systems, and methods for determining a use of units in medical procedures to establish efficiency and alternate pricing

A method of providing per-procedure pricing for a product by a determination device, the method comprising:

• retrieving, by the determination device, historical use data for the product;
• determining, by the determination device, a total average number of units per procedure for the product;
• providing, by the determination device, the historical use data and the total average number of units per procedure to a machine learning component, wherein the machine learning component generates a model from the historical use data and the total average number of units per procedure and determines an expected number of units per procedure based on the model, based on at least one of data pertaining to a number of units of the product, one or more types of procedures performed using the product, personnel that performed the one or more types of procedures, and subjects that received the one or more types of procedures and applies a weighting to the data pertaining to a number of units of the product, the one or more types of procedures performed using the product, the personnel that performed the one or more types of procedures, or the subjects that received the one or more types of procedures, wherein the weighting is used to determine the expected number of units per procedure;
• determining, by the determination device, a plurality of pricing tiers for the price per procedure based on the expected number of units per procedure;
• determining, by the determination device, a per-procedure pricing to be offered from the plurality of pricing tiers based on a determined efficiency of use of the product, wherein the efficiency of use represents a closeness to the expected number of units per procedure;
• calculating, by the determination device, an adjusted price to be paid based on the per-procedure pricing and a total number of procedures for a period of time;
• and
• issuing, by the determination device, a rebate when a total upfront cost paid for all units on a per-unit basis is greater than the adjusted price to be paid, wherein the rebate represents a difference between the total upfront cost and the adjusted price to be paid.

A determination device that provides per-procedure pricing for a product, the determination device comprising:

• a processing device;
• and
• a non-transitory, processor readable storage medium communicatively coupled to the processing device, the non-transitory, processor readable storage medium comprising one or more programming instructions thereon that, when executed, cause the processing device to:
• retrieve historical use data for the product,
• determine a total average number of units per procedure for the product;
• provide the historical use data and the total average number of units per procedure to a machine learning component, wherein the machine learning component generates a model from the historical use data and the total average number of units per procedure and determines an expected number of units per procedure based on the model, based on at least one of data pertaining to a number of units of the product, one or more types of procedures performed using the product, personnel that performed the one or more types of procedures, and subjects that received the one or more types of procedures and applies a weighting to the data pertaining to a number of units of the product, the one or more types of procedures performed using the product, the personnel that performed the one or more types of procedures, or the subjects that received the one or more types of procedures, wherein the weighting is used to determine the expected number of units per procedure,
• determine a plurality of pricing tiers for the price per procedure based on the expected number of units per procedure,
• determine a per-procedure pricing to be offered from the plurality of pricing tiers based on a determined efficiency of use of the product, wherein the efficiency of use represents a closeness to the expected number of units per procedure,
• calculate an adjusted price to be paid based on the per-procedure pricing and a total number of procedures for a period of time, and
• issue a rebate when a total upfront cost paid for all units on a per-unit basis is greater than the adjusted price to be paid, wherein the rebate represents a difference between the total upfront cost and the adjusted price to be paid.
