A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions which, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
- displaying a plurality of related plan objects;
- in response to user input, placing, within the plurality of related plan objects, and in association with a particular plan object, an eligibility object that defines requirements of at least one benefits plan;
- and
- in response to the placement of the eligibility object in association with the particular plan object, causing other plan objects in the plurality of related plan objects to possess the requirements based on relationships between the particular plan object and the other plan objects.
An apparatus comprising:
- a digital processor coupled to a display and to a processor-readable computer medium, wherein the processor-readable computer medium includes one or more instructions executable by the digital processor to perform the following acts:
- displaying a plurality of related plan objects;
- in response to user input, placing, within the plurality of related plan objects, and in association with a particular plan object, an eligibility object that defines requirements of at least one benefits plan;
