Abstract
A patient authentication fraud prevention system as described herein includes a searchable data archive database, a correlation subsystem, and a feedback subsystem. An alternative preferred patient authentication fraud prevention system preferably includes a searchable data archive database, a collection subprogram, a substantiation subprogram, a correlation subprogram, and a feedback subprogram. Also described herein is a computer-implemented patient authentication fraud prevention method.
Claims25
A patient authentication fraud prevention system accessible by at least one medical practitioner via a medical practitioner interaction subsystem, said system comprising:
- (a) a searchable data archive database stored in a non-transitory machine-readable storage medium, said searchable data archive having stored patient records of data pertaining to patients, said data archive database accessible by a correlation subsystem and a feedback subsystem;
- (b) said correlation subsystem for receiving patient identifying information as input from a first medical practitioner and for correlating said patient identifying information with a corresponding patient record in said data archive database to create authenticated information to be provided to a second medical practitioner who has the ability to address patient fraud based on the authenticated information;
- and
- (c) said feedback subsystem for receiving feedback data from a third medical practitioner, said feedback data being incorporated into said data archive database.
A patient authentication fraud prevention system accessible by at least one medical practitioner via at least one medical practitioner interaction subsystem, said system comprising:
- (a) a searchable data archive database stored in a non-transitory machine-readable storage medium, said data archive database having stored patient records of data pertaining to patients, said data archive database accessible by a correlation subprogram and a feedback subprogram;
- (b) a collection subprogram residing in a non-transitory machine-readable storage medium and implementable by a processor, said collection subprogram for collecting said patient identifying information from a first medical practitioner via a medical practitioner interaction subsystem, said patient identifying information being at least part of patient identifying input to be transmitted to a substantiation subprogram;
- (c) said substantiation subprogram residing in a non-transitory machine-readable storage medium and implementable by a processor, said substantiation subprogram for receiving patient identifying information as input from said collection subprogram, said substantiation subsystem for substantiating said patient identifying information to create substantiated information to be transmitted to said correlation subprogram, said substantiated information including said patient identifying information;
- (d) said correlation subprogram residing in a non-transitory machine-readable storage medium and implementable by a processor, said correlation subprogram for receiving patient identifying information as input from said substantiation subprogram and for correlating said patient identifying information with a corresponding patient record in said data archive database to create authenticated information to be provided to a second medical practitioner who has the ability to address patient fraud based on the authenticated information;
- and
- (e) a feedback subprogram residing in a non-transitory machine-readable storage medium and implementable by a processor, said feedback subprogram for receiving feedback data from a third medical practitioner, said feedback data being incorporated into said data archive database.
A computer-implemented patient authentication fraud prevention method, said method comprising the steps of:
- (a) collecting patient identifying information using at least one computer, said patient identifying information being at least part of patient identifying input;
- (b) receiving said patient identifying input and said patient identifying information, and substantiating at least said patient identifying information to create substantiated information, said substantiated information including said patient identifying information;
- (c) receiving said substantiated information and said patient identifying information, and correlating at least said patient identifying information with a corresponding patient record in a data archive database to create authenticated information;
- and
- (d) receiving feedback data from a medical practitioner, and incorporating said feedback data into said data archive database.
