Real-time image analysis for medical savings plans

An apparatus for determining whether a product qualifies under a medical savings plan, wherein the apparatus comprises:

• a communication device;
• and
• a processing device communicably coupled to the communication device, wherein the processing device is configured to:
• receive information associated with an image of the product, wherein the image is part of a real-time video stream captured by a mobile device;
• determine, based at least partially on the information associated with the image, if the image shows a product that qualifies for purchase under a medical savings plan, wherein determining if the image shows a product that qualifies for purchase under the medical savings plan comprises (i) identifying the product based at least partially on the information associated with the image and (ii) determining if the product qualifies for purchase under the medical savings plan by comparing information about the product to information about a known set of products that qualify for purchase under a medical savings plan;
• display the real-time video stream on a display of the mobile device;
• determine that the real-time video stream being displayed on the display of the mobile device shows the product;
• and
• based upon determining that the real-time video stream being displayed on the display of the mobile device shows the product, display on the display of the mobile device a graphical indication that the product qualifies for purchase under the medical savings plan, the graphical indication being superimposed over the real-time video stream being displayed on the display of the mobile device.

A computer program product for determining whether a product qualifies under a medical savings plan, the computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer-readable medium, wherein the non-transitory computer-readable medium comprises computer executable program code stored therein, the computer-executable program code being configured to cause a processor to:

• receive information associated with an image of the product, wherein the image was part of a real-time video stream captured by a mobile device;
• determine, based at least partially on the information associated with the image, if the image shows a product that qualifies for purchase under a medical savings plan, wherein determining if the image shows a product that qualifies for purchase under the medical savings plan comprises (i) identifying the product based at least partially on the information associated with the image and (ii) determining if the product qualifies for purchase under the medical savings plan by comparing information about the product to information about a known set of products that qualify for purchase under a medical savings plan;
• display the real-time video stream on a display of the mobile device;
• determine that the real-time video stream being displayed on the display of the mobile device shows the product;
• and
• based upon determining that the real-time video stream being displayed on the display of the mobile device shows the product, display on the display of the mobile device a graphical indication that the product qualifies for purchase under the medical savings plan, the graphical indication being superimposed over the real-time video stream being displayed on the display of the mobile device.
