Intelligent Health Benefit Design System
First Claim
1. A method for providing a health benefit plan, comprising:
- (a) determining a set of health benefit plan configurations;
(b) receiving a response from a member of a group of consumers, the response being responsive to a questionnaire;
(c) predicting a preferred health benefit plan chosen by the member from the set of health benefit plan configurations;
(d) repeating (c) for another member of the group;
(e) estimating, responsive to (c)-(d), an overall enrollment distribution for the group;
(f) determining an economic return for each health benefit plan in the set of health benefit plan configurations from the overall distribution and at least one health trajectory predictor;
(g) repeating (a)-(f) until a minimum economic objective is obtained from the set of health benefit plan configurations; and
(h) offering a plurality of health benefit plans to the group of consumers.

Abstract
Apparatuses, computer media, and methods for supporting health needs of a consumer by processing input data. An integrated health management platform supports the management of healthcare by obtaining multi-dimensional input data for a consumer, determining a health-trajectory predictor from the multi-dimensional input data, identifying a target of opportunity for the consumer in accordance with the health-trajectory predictor, and offering the target of opportunity for the consumer. A health benefit plan is offered from a set of health benefit plan configurations. Responses from members of a consumer group are received that are responsive to a questionnaire and preferred health benefit plans chosen by members of the group are predicted. From the responses, an overall enrollment distribution is estimated. A plurality of health benefit plans is offered to the group when a minimum economic objective is obtained from the set of health benefit plan configurations.
