Automated task processor for insurance claims
First Claim
1. An insurance claim processing system, comprising:
- at least one computer including a processor and a memory device;
an insurance claims database operating on the at least one computer, the insurance claims database configured to store insurance claim data;
an action plan database operating on the at least one computer, the action plan database storing a plurality of action plans, wherein each of the action plans includes one or more automated procedures performed to complete a task related to processing an insurance claim;
a pattern analysis component operating on the at least one computer, the pattern analysis component configured to identify patterns from the insurance claim data stored in the insurance claims database; and
an automated task processor stored on the memory device and executable by the processor, the automated task processor configured to;
identify an insurance claim processing task performable by an automated performer based on pattern matching performed by the pattern analysis component;
obtain insurance claim data related to the identified insurance claim processing task from the insurance claims database;
for the identified insurance claim processing task, select an action plan from the action plan database based on the obtained insurance claim data;
for the selected action plan, identify a set of one or more automated procedures included in the action plan; and
cause execution of the identified set of automated procedures included in the action plan.

Abstract
An insurance claim processing system may include an insurance claim database and an automated task processor. The insurance claim database may be configured to store and provide access to data in a data record that is related to an insurance claim. The automated task processor may be executable with a computer to identify an insurance claim processing task from the insurance claim database, and obtain insurance claim data related to the identified insurance claim processing task. The automated task processor may also select an action plan from an action plan database based on the obtained insurance claim data. The automated task processor may also identify a set of one or more automated procedures included in the action plan, and cause execution of the identified set of procedures included in the action plan.

6. A method of processing insurance claims, comprising:
-
providing a computer; the computer communicating with a database, the database configured to store insurance claim data and a plurality of action plans, wherein each of the action plans includes one or more automated procedures performed to complete a task related to processing an insurance claim; identifying patterns from insurance claim data stored in the insurance claims database with a pattern analysis component executed with the computer; identifying an insurance claim processing task performable by an automated performer with an automated task processor, the insurance claim processing task identified based on pattern matching performed by the pattern analysis component; obtaining insurance claim data related to the identified insurance claim processing task from the database with the automated task processor; selecting, for the identified insurance claim processing task, an action plan from the database with the automated task processor based on the obtained insurance claim data; the automated task processor identifying, for the selected action plan, a set of one or more automated procedures included in the action plan; and causing execution of the identified set of automated procedures included in the action plan. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10, 11)

12. An insurance claim processing system embodied in instructions stored on a memory storage device, the instructions executable by a computer with a processor, comprising:
-
a memory storage device, instructions stored in the memory storage device that are executed by the processor to cause the processor to identify patterns from insurance claim data stored in an insurance claims database, the database configured to store insurance claim data and a plurality of action plans; instructions stored in the memory storage device that are executed by the processor to cause the processor to execute a pattern analysis component to identify an insurance claim processing task performable by an automated performer, the insurance claim processing task identified based on the identified patterns; instructions stored in the memory storage device that are executed by the processor to cause the processor to obtain insurance claim data related to the identified insurance claim processing task from the database; instructions stored in the memory storage device that are executed by the processor to cause the processor to select, for the identified insurance claim processing task, an action plan from the database based on the obtained insurance claim data, wherein each of the action plans includes one or more automated procedures performed to complete a task related to processing an insurance claim; instructions stored in the memory storage device that are executed by the processor to cause the processor to identify, for the selected action plan, a set of one or more automated procedures included in the action plan; and instructions stored in the memory storage device that are executed by the processor to cause execution of the identified set of automated procedures included in the action plan. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
