Abstract

Wellness plan administration software provides a user interface to enable users to learn about and select a wellness plan. The software tracks wellness plan service items for patients and dynamically estimates discounts for service items offered to patients during visits to a medical facility. When a patient's visit is complete, the software can generate an invoice automatically and analyze the product and service items provided during the visit to determine the appropriate discount. The software includes additional features for recording promotional activities associated with wellness plans and computing employee bonuses.
