Abstract:
A computerized method of location-based automatic wireless distribution includes receiving a claim from a selected pharmacy associated with a drug benefit plan. The claim indicates a first prescription drug to be administered by the selected pharmacy to a member. The method includes determining a current geographic location of the member, accessing previously adjudicated claim data of the member that is indicative of locations of a plurality of pharmacies where the member previously obtained prescription drug fills, and selecting a drug benefit plan action based on a determination of whether the current geographic location of the member satisfies a pharmacy location criterion associated with the location of at least one other pharmacy of the plurality of pharmacies that is not the selected pharmacy. The method further includes automatically transmitting a drug benefit notification to a mobile electronic device of the member via at least one wireless network.
