First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method implemented on a computer system including one or more processors for treating a vehicle damaged in a crash, the method comprising:
- receiving crash information about a damaged vehicle;
determining, by the one or more processors, a treatment complexity level associated with treating the damaged vehicle based on the received crash information, the treatment complexity level including a price schedule for treating the damaged vehicle and a time duration for completing treatment of the damaged vehicle, wherein treating the damaged vehicle includes repairing, salvaging, or scrapping the damaged vehicle;
selecting, by the one or more processors, a treatment facility for treating the damaged vehicle based on the determined treatment complexity level; and
transmitting, by the one or more processors, information associated with transporting the damaged vehicle to the selected treatment facility.

18. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that when executed by one or more processors of a computer system cause the computer system to:
-
receive crash information about a damaged vehicle; determine a treatment complexity level associated with treating the damaged vehicle based on the received crash information, the treatment complexity level including a price schedule for treating the damaged vehicle and a time duration for completing treatment of the damaged vehicle, wherein treating the damaged vehicle includes repairing, salvaging, or scrapping the damaged vehicle; select a treatment facility for treating the damaged vehicle based on the determined treatment complexity level; and transmit information associated with transporting the damaged vehicle to the selected treatment facility.
