determine a budget for participating in the one or more interventions; and

modify the budget when an intervention in the one or more interventions is selected for a patient.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein processing system is further configured to:

generate one or more scores for each patient, each score related to a therapy for the patient;

combine the one or more scores to create a total score for each patient; and

generate for display an indication associated with the combined total score for each patient.

5. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising a program executable by a computer having at least one processor, the program when executed causing the computer to:

obtain data packets including, at least, historical patient data including one or more prescription drugs associated with the one or more patients;

create a resultant data file using the historical patient data for the one or more patients;

select patients from the one or more patients associated with the data file;

determine one or more variables related to health care adherence for each patient by, at least, determining a probability of non-adherence for each patient of the one or more patients, determining a probability of conversion from non-adherence to adherence for each patient of the one or more patients, and determining a cost benefit for each patient, of the one or more patients, associated with adherence;

calculate a score for each patient by combining the probability of non-adherence for each patient by the probability of conversion from non-adherence to adherence for each patient and further combining the cost reduction for each patient when the patient is considered to be adherent;

apply the score to each patient; and

generate a user interface for display that includes, at least, an ordered listing of each patient having a value associated with the calculated score for each patient and corresponding to the value of possible future adherence to at least one medication for each patient.

6. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 5 , wherein the program further causing the computer to perform functionality comprising:

determining one or more interventions available for each patient of the one or more patients;

assigning a cost of each intervention of the one or more interventions available for each patient; and

enabling selection of a cost effective intervention by comparing at least the calculated score to the cost of each intervention.

7. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 6 , wherein the program further causing the computer to perform functionality comprising:

determining a budget for participating in the one or more interventions; and

modifying the budget when an intervention in the one or more interventions is selected for a patient.

8. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 5 , wherein the program further causing the computer to perform functionality comprising:

generating one or more scores for each patient, each score related to a therapy for the patient;

combining the one or more scores to create a total score for each patient; and

generating for display an indication associated with the combined total score for each patient.

9. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 5 , wherein the ordered listing of each patient displayed in the user interface further includes an indication of medication adherence and an indication as to whether an intervention is recommended.

10. A method for identifying a patient population implemented using a processing system having at least one processor, at least one memory storing software instructions that are executable by the processor, at least one communications interface configured to communicate with at least one other system, the processor, the memory, and the communications interface operatively coupled to each other via a bus, the method comprising:

obtaining data packets including, at least, historical patient data including one or more prescription drugs associated with the one or more patients;

creating a resultant data file using the historical patient data for the one or more patients;

selecting patients from the one or more patients associated with the data file;

determining one or more variables related to health care adherence for each patient by, at least, determining a probability of non-adherence for each patient of the one or more patients, determining a probability of conversion from non-adherence to adherence for each patient of the one or more patients, and determining a cost benefit for each patient, of the one or more patients, associated with adherence;

calculating a score for each patient by combining the probability of non-adherence for each patient by the probability of conversion from non-adherence to adherence for each patient and further combining the cost reduction for each patient when the patient is considered to be adherent;

applying the score to each patient; and

generating a user interface for display that includes, at least, an ordered listing of each patient having a value associated with the calculated score for each patient and corresponding to the value of possible future adherence to at least one medication for each patient.

11. The method of claim 10 , further comprising:

determining one or more interventions available for each patient of the one or more patients;

assigning a cost of each intervention of the one or more interventions available for each patient; and

enabling selection of a cost effective intervention by comparing at least the calculated score to the cost of each intervention.
