Abstract

Systems and methods for graphically displaying insurance coverage information are provided. The systems and methods include accessing insurance policy information about an insuree in a coverage database, determining, with reference to the insurance policy information, at least one type of coverage available to the insuree, identifying a graphical indicator associated with the at least one type of coverage available to the insuree, and displaying the graphical indicator.

Claims

1. A computer implemented method for graphically displaying insurance coverage information, comprising acts of:

accessing, by a computer system, insurance policy information about an insuree in a coverage database;

determining, by the computer system, with reference to the insurance policy information, at least one type of coverage available to the insuree;

identifying, by the computer system, a graphical indicator associated with the at least one type of coverage available to the insuree; and

displaying, by the computer system, the graphical indicator.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein the act of accessing insurance policy information about an insuree in a coverage database comprises accessing insurance policy information over a computer network.

3. The method of claim 1, further comprising an act of generating a coverage report displaying the graphical indicator.

4. The method of claim 3, wherein the act of generating the coverage report displaying the graphical indicator comprises acts of:

responsive to the insuree maintaining the type of coverage associated with the graphical indicator, displaying the graphical indicator in a first region; and

responsive to the insuree not maintaining the type of coverage associated with the graphical indicator, displaying the graphical indicator in a second region.

5. The method of claim 4, further comprising transitioning graphical indicator between the first and second regions responsive to user selection in a user interface.

6. The method of claim 3, further comprising an act of displaying the coverage report on a display device of a computer.

7. The method of claim 3, further comprising an act of printing the coverage report.

8. The method of claim 1, further comprising generating the graphical indicator including an image reflective of a type of coverage.

9. The method of claim 8, wherein generating the graphical indicator includes summarizing available coverage information as part of the graphical indicator.

10. The method of claim 9, wherein summarizing the available coverage information includes providing a display color for the graphical indicator reflective of a level of coverage.

11-15. -15. (canceled)

16. A computer system for graphically displaying insurance coverage information, comprising:

an access processor configured to access insurance policy information about an insuree in a coverage database;

a coverage processor configured to determine, with reference to the insurance policy information, at least one type of coverage available to the insuree;

a graphical indicator identification processor configured to identify a graphical indicator associated with the at least one type of coverage available to the insuree; and

a graphical indicator display processor configured to display the graphical indicator.

17. The system of claim 16, wherein the access processor is configured to access insurance policy information over a computer network.

18. The system of claim 16, wherein the coverage processor is configured to generate a coverage report displaying the graphical indicator.

19. The system of claim 18, wherein the coverage processor is configured to generate the coverage report responsive to the insuree maintaining the type of coverage associated with the graphical indicator, having the graphical indicator displayed in a first region, and responsive to the insuree not maintaining the type of coverage associated with the graphical indicator, having the graphical indicator displayed in a second region.

20. The system of claim 19, wherein the coverage processor is configured to transition the graphical indicator between the first and second regions responsive to user selection in a user interface.

21. The system of claim 18, wherein the coverage processor is configured to display the coverage report on a display device of a computer.

22. The system of claim 18, wherein the coverage processor is configured to generate a printable image of the coverage report.

23. The system of claim 16, wherein the graphical indicator display processor is configured to generate the graphical indicator including an image reflective of a type of coverage.

24. The system of claim 23, wherein the graphical indicator display processor is configured to summarize available coverage information as part of the graphical indicator.

25. The system stem of claim 24, a graphical indicator display processor is configured to provide a display color for the graphical indicator reflective of a level of coverage to summarize the available coverage information.
