Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for supporting and validating patient enrollment in one or more healthcare programs. The systems and methods may include receiving a prescription claim request from a pharmacy computer, where the prescription claim request includes at least (i) a first product identifier identifying with a prescribed product for a patient, and (ii) patient information associated with the patient; determining, based at least in part upon the first identifier, that patient is subject to a requirement to enroll in one or more required healthcare programs prior to the prescription product being released to the patient; extracting enrollment information from the prescription claim request, the extracted enrollment information including at least a portion of the patient information from the prescription claim request; and automatically utilizing the extracted enrollment information to complete at least a portion of an enrollment process for the one or more required healthcare programs.
