Abstract

A compliance module configured to support the addiction recovery process. The compliance module includes a user interface downloadable to a mobile computing device that connects through the Internet to computer workstations using a standard web browser. The user interface provides participation statistics on what the users have and have not been doing that is prescribed from administrators and advocates in order to stay on track with the user'"'"'s treatment plan and sobriety protocol. The system can be used to present evidence to those concerned, such as licensing boards, courts, employers, trust accounts, insurance carriers, loved ones with concerns, sponsors and, most immortally, users themselves. Relapse happens much too often when addicts do not stay accountable to the prescribed recommendations. This combination of a compliance module, mobile computing device and workstation will provide the user and health care advocates with real-time tools to stay on track.

Claims

1. A nontransitory computer readable medium configured to store instructions, the instructions when executed by a processor cause the processor to perform steps comprising:

detecting a first user request that is made using a compliance module resident on a computing device having a nontransitory computer readable medium and a processor; and

responding to the first user request, including;

(i) retrieving at least one appointment data from at least one memory resource of the computing device,

(ii) presenting the least one appointment data on a display of the computing device,

(iii) enabling the user to select a first appointment data from the at least one appointment data, and

(iv) initiating a verification module resident on the computing device and configured for verification of the appointment in response to the user selecting the first appointment data.

2. The nontransitory computer readable medium of claim 1, wherein the instructions cause the verification module to accept a signature from the display of the computing device.

3. The nontransitory computer readable medium of claim 2, wherein the instructions cause the verification module to store the written signature into the at least one memory resource.

4. The nontransitory computer readable medium of claim 3, wherein the instructions further cause the verification module is to include geographic location information of the computing device.

5. The nontransitory computer readable medium of claim 4, wherein the instructions cause the verification module to store the geographic location information into the at least one memory resource.

6. The nontransitory computer readable medium of claim 1, wherein the compliance module further comprises instructions when executed by a processor causes the processor to perform the steps of:

(v) enabling the user to enter a second appointment data into the at least one memory resource, wherein the second appointment data includes medication information and a schedule for the medication information;

(vi) storing the second appointment data into the at least one memory resource;

(vii) presenting the medication information on the display of the computing device according to the medication schedule; and

(viii) enabling the user to select the second appointment data and to verify compliance with the medication schedule.

7. A computer-implemented method on a computing device configured for plan compliance, comprising:

activating a compliance module resident on a computing device having a nontransitory computer readable medium and a processor;

detecting a first user request that is made using the compliance module;

retrieving at least one appointment data from at least one memory resource of the computing device;

presenting at least one appointment data on a display of the computing device;

enabling the user to select a first appointment from the at least one appointment data, and

initiating a verification module resident on the computing device and configured for verification of the first appointment in response to the user selecting the first appointment.

8. The computer-implemented method of claim 7, wherein the verification module is configured to accept a written signature and to store the written signature into the at least one memory resource.

9. The computer-implemented method of claim 8, wherein the verification module is further configured to determine the geographic location information of the computing device and to store the geographic location information into the at least one memory resource.

10. The computer-implemented method of claim 8, further comprising transmitting the written signature to a computer workstation remote from the computing device.

11. The computer-implemented method of claim 9, further comprising transmitting the written signature and the geographic location information to a computer workstation remote from the computing device.

12. The computer-implemented method of claim 7, wherein activating the compliance module further comprises:

enabling the user to enter a second appointment data into the at least one memory resource, wherein the second appointment data includes medication information and a schedule for the medication information;

storing the second appointment data into the at least one memory resource; and

presenting the medication information on the display of the computing device according to the medication schedule.

13. The computer-implemented method of claim 12, further comprising enabling the user to select the second appointment data and to enter compliance verification for the medication schedule.

14. The computer-implemented method of claim 12, further comprising transmitting the second appointment data to a computer workstation remote from the computing device.

15. The computer-implemented method of claim 13, further comprising transmitting the second appointment data and the compliance verification to a computer workstation remote from the computing device.

16. A mobile computing apparatus for providing plan compliance information and user interaction comprising:

a processor;

a display screen;

at least one memory resource; and

a storage medium to store instructions of a compliance module that when executed by the processor, cause the processor to;

(i) activate display module that operates to provide data on the display screen,

(ii) retrieve at least one appointment data from the at least one memory resource,

(iii) present at least one appointment data the on the display screen, and

(iv) enable a user to select a first appointment data.

17. The mobile computing apparatus of claim 16, wherein the compliance module is further configured to initiate a verification module in response to the user selecting the first appointment data, and wherein the verification module is configured to obtain a written signature, to store the written signature in the at least one memory resource and to trans it the written signature to a computer workstation remote from the computing device.

18. The mobile computing apparatus of claim 17, herein the verification module is further configured to determine geographic location information of the mobile computing apparatus, and wherein the mobile computing apparatus is configured to transmit the geographic location information to a computer workstation remote from the mobile computing apparatus.

19. The mobile computing apparatus of claim 16, wherein the compliance module includes further instructions that when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:

enable the user to enter a second appointment data into the at least one memory resource, wherein the second appointment data includes medication information and a schedule for the medication information;

store the second appointment data into the at least one memory resource; and

present the medication information on the display screen according to the medication schedule.

20. The mobile computing apparatus of claim 19, wherein the compliance module is further configured to enable the user to select the second appointment data and to enter compliance verification for the medication schedule, and wherein the mobile computing apparatus is configured to transmit the second appointment data the compliance verification to a computer workstation remote from the mobile computing apparatus.
