Abstract

A method for operating a computer apparatus located at a hospital (8), physician's office (9), a lab (10), or a pharmacy (11) for applying the rules of coordination of benefits to claims under medical insurance (51). The computer has a first database (14) containing a grand census file identifying all individuals by social security number of personal identification number together with the plans under which they are covered. A second database (15) contains information as to the nature of the plan coverage together with the rules for coordination of benefits. When a claim is processed (figs. 2a-2c), it is first checked against the individual by identification number in the first database (step 29) to determine all plans under which coverage could be obtained (figs. 2b-2c). Thereafter, the claim is processed for coverage under the information in the second database together with the rules for coordination of benefits to determine primary and secondary coverage (steps 43, 46-49, 51, 53-55). Optionally, the claims may then be processed for payment according to such primary and secondary coverage (steps 64-68). All such determinations are then stored in a historical database for future reference (step 39).
