Abstract

A system for benefits management that includes a benefit metaphor engine that can apply a user-facing metaphor over the benefit plan, where characteristics of the benefit plan are used to identify rule sets to generate an appropriate metaphor. The metaphor presents information about the benefit plan within the metaphor setting, and allows for the user to make decisions within the metaphor that affect the benefit plan outside of the metaphor.
