Abstract

The Use Determination Risk Coverage Datastructure for On-Demand and Increased Efficiency Coverage Detection and Rebalancing Apparatuses, Methods and Systems (“UDRCD”) transforms coverage enrollment request, event signal inputs via UDRCD components into coverage enrollment response, add-in recommendation outputs. An event signal associated with a plan member enrolled into a plan that includes a core coverage component and an add-ins coverage component is obtained. Plan member data associated with the plan member is retrieved. A condition or procedure associated with the event signal is determined based on event signal data. An atomized add-in recommendation for the plan member is determined. The atomized add-in recommendation is provided to the plan member via an enrollment user interface. A selection of an atomized add-in is obtained from the plan member via the enrollment user interface. Addition of the selected atomized add-in to the add-ins coverage component of the plan is facilitated.

10 . The system of claim 1 , wherein generating the healthcare add-in recommendation is further based at least in part on a third determination that a chronic condition add-in upgrade improves a prognosis the healthcare plan member.

11 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the healthcare add-in recommendation comprises two or more healthcare add-in options associated with two or more different services and a same medical condition.

12 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the two or more different services are determined based at least in part on care efficacy of the respective services.

13 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the two or more healthcare add-in options comprise available provider add-in options determined based at least in part on a proximity of a corresponding provider to a location associated with the healthcare plan member.

14 . The system of claim 1 , wherein adding the first healthcare add-in to the related atomized add-in healthcare coverage component of the healthcare plan results in one or more of an introduction of a copay amount or for a first service associated with the first healthcare add-in and an increased cost of the healthcare plan.

15 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the healthcare enrollment user interface comprises one or more of a toggle healthcare network selection switch, a co-pay slider selection mechanism, a health network informational widget, or a healthcare add-in upgrade toggle switch.

16 . One or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media storing processor-executable instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:

receiving an event signal data structure indicating an event involving a healthcare plan member enrolled into a healthcare plan comprising (a) a healthcare core coverage component and (b) a related atomized add-in healthcare coverage component comprising healthcare coverage for a discrete provider, discrete medical service, or discrete medical condition that is distinct from the healthcare core coverage component;

receiving a healthcare plan member data structure comprising at least an identifier identifying the healthcare plan member;

predicting a probability that a medical condition or service will occur in association with the healthcare plan member based at least in part on processing the event signal data structure by one or more machine learning processes, a medical condition or service;

generating, based at least in part on processing the probability and a set of healthcare add-ins available for addition to the healthcare plan by the healthcare plan member by the one or more machine learning processes, a healthcare add-in recommendation comprising a subset of healthcare add-ins, the subset of healthcare add-ins comprising a first healthcare add-in for the healthcare plan member;

providing, via a healthcare enrollment user interface, a plan option comprising the first healthcare add-in, wherein the plan option comprises a Personal Protection Plan (PPP) data structure comprising a coverage amount field and a pointer to one or more callable options for the healthcare add-in recommendation;
