Voice authentication systems and methods for prescription processes
Methods and systems may incorporate voice interaction and other audio interaction to facilitate access to prescription related information and processes. Particularly, voice/audio interactions may be utilized to achieve authentication to access prescription-related information and action capabilities. Additionally, voice/audio interactions may be utilized in performance of processes such as obtaining prescription refills and receiving reminders to consume prescription products.
1. A computer-implemented method for authenticating a user to access a prescription resource, the method comprising:
obtaining, via one or more processors, an indication of a request to access the prescription resource, the request obtained via an electronic computing device associated with a user;
obtaining, via the one or more processors, access permission information defining different respective permission sets of a plurality of persons to access prescription resources associated with the patient, the prescription resources including the requested prescription resource;
identifying, via the one or more processors, an authentication action prerequisite to providing access to the requested prescription resource;
identifying, via the one or more processors, a plurality of modes of communication modes usable to perform the authentication action;
selecting, via the one or more processors, a particular communication mode for performing the authentication action, the selecting of the particular communication mode comprising selecting a voice-based authentication, and the selecting being based upon at least one of (1) configuration information indicating compatibility of the electronic computing device to utilize each of the plurality of communication modes, or (2) contextual information indicating an environment in which the user is located;
obtaining, via the one or more processors, voice data corresponding to the user, the voice data provided by the user via a microphone of the electronic computing device;
comparing, via the one or more processors, the obtained voice data to reference voice data corresponding to each of the plurality of persons;
via the one or more processors and based upon the comparison, identifying the user as a particular one of the plurality of persons;
based upon the identifying of the user, authenticating, via the one or more processors, the identified user to access the requested prescription resource based upon the corresponding permission set for the identified user wherein authenticating the identified user to access the requested prescription resource includes using the comparison of the voice data in combination with one or more further authentication factors; and
providing, via the one or more processors, one or more user interfaces to the electronic computing device to facilitate access to the requested prescription resource for the authenticated user.
2. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein providing the one or more user interfaces comprises providing an interactive voice interface to the electronic computing device.
3. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein providing the one or more user interfaces comprises providing an interactive graphical user interface to the electronic computing device.
4. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the authenticated user is at least one of a parent, guardian, or caregiver of the patient corresponding to the prescription resource.
5. A computing system configured to for authenticate a user to access a prescription resource, the computing system comprising:
one or more processors; and one or more memories storing non-transitory computer executable instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the computing system to:
obtain an indication of a request to access the prescription resource, the request obtained via an electronic computing device associated with a user;
obtain access permission information defining different respective permission sets of a plurality of persons to access prescription resources associated with the patient, the prescription resources including the requested prescription resource;
identify an authentication action prerequisite to providing access to the requested prescription resource;
identify a plurality of modes of communication modes usable to perform the authentication action;
select, from the usable communication modes, a particular communication mode for performing the authentication action, the selecting of the particular communication mode comprising selecting a voice-based authentication, and the selecting being based upon at least one of (1) configuration information indicating compatibility of the electronic computing device to utilize each of the plurality of communication modes, or (2) contextual information indicating an environment in which the user is located;
obtain voice data corresponding to the user, the voice data provided by the user via a microphone of the electronic computing device;
compare the obtained voice data to reference voice data corresponding to each of the plurality of persons;
based upon the comparison, identify the user as a particular one of the plurality of persons;
based upon the identifying of the user, authenticate the identified user to access the requested prescription resource based upon the corresponding permission set for the identified user wherein the authentication based upon the comparison of the voice data is used in combination with one or more further authentication factors to authenticate the identified user to access the requested prescription resource; and
provide one or more user interfaces to the electronic computing device to facilitate access to the requested prescription resource for the authenticated user.
6. The computing system of claim 5 , wherein the one or more user interfaces comprise an interactive voice interface.
7. The computing system of claim 5 , wherein the one or more user interfaces comprise an interactive graphical user interface.
8. The computing system of claim 5 , wherein the authenticated user is at least one of a parent, guardian, or caregiver of the patient corresponding to the prescription resource.
9. One or more non-transitory computer readable media storing non-transitory computer executable instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
obtain an indication of a request to access a prescription resource, the request obtained via an electronic computing device associated with a user;
obtain access permission information defining different respective permission sets of a plurality of persons to access prescription resources associated with the patient, the prescription resources including the requested prescription resource;
identify an authentication action prerequisite to providing access to the requested prescription resource;
identify a plurality of modes of communication modes usable to perform the authentication action;
select, from the usable communication modes, a particular communication mode for performing the authentication action, the selecting of the particular communication mode comprising selecting a voice-based authentication, and the selecting being based upon at least one of (1) configuration information indicating compatibility of the electronic computing device to utilize each of the plurality of communication modes, or (2) contextual information indicating an environment in which the user is located;
obtain voice data corresponding to the user, the voice data provided by the user via a microphone of the electronic computing device;
compare the obtained voice data to reference voice data corresponding to each of the plurality of persons;
based upon the comparison, identify the user as a particular one of the plurality of persons;
based upon the identifying of the user, authenticate the identified user to access the requested prescription resource based upon the corresponding permission set for the identified user wherein the authentication based upon the comparison of the voice data is used in combination with one or more further authentication factors to authenticate the identified user to access the requested prescription resource; and
provide one or more user interfaces to the electronic computing device to facilitate access to the requested prescription resource for the authenticated user.
10. The one or more non-transitory computer readable media of claim 9 , wherein the one or more user interfaces comprise an interactive voice interface.
