    摘要: Embodiments of the present invention relate to methods and apparatuses serving to provide assurance that healthcare providers will receive payment for services rendered. In one embodiment, a payment card (or other portable consumer device) provides an extended authorization hold period (for example up to 21 days). This hold period allows the healthcare provider to request authorization for payment from the patient's credit, debit, FSA, HRA, or HSA payment card, submit the insurance claim, and then upon receipt of a health insurance carrier's Explanation of Benefits (EOB) within the hold period, submit for settlement only that amount actually due from the patient. In accordance with an alternative embodiment, pending receipt of the EOB from the insurer, the healthcare provider flags a transaction in a point-of-sale (POS) terminal device or server for storage and delayed submittal over an electronic payment network. Embodiments in accordance with the present invention are particularly applicable to payment of claims in healthcare plans following adjudication by a payer.

    摘要: Healthcare purchase data from a transaction upon a patient's account may be required to be transported and stored for safeguarding patient confidentiality if sufficient to identify the patient and the purchase. To avoid non-compliance, a transaction hander (TH) receives the data from a merchant's acquirer as encrypted by a key known to both the acquirer and TH. After decrypting the data with that key, the TH re-encrypts it with a key known only to the TH, and then stored. After receiving an issuer's request for the data, the TH decrypts the data using its own key, re-encrypts it using a key known only to the TH and the issuer, and then sends it to the issuer who will decrypt the data using that key. The unencrypted data may be used by the issuer to demonstrate the issuer's regulatory compliance to a governmental entity.

    摘要: Transactions are processed in which payment is made using an account, such as a health savings account or other type of account in which cardholder purchases are limited to, and/or are documented for, a pre-designated set of merchandise. When a transaction occurs, the purchased products are identified and a determination made whether each product is qualified for purchase under the account. An account transaction record is stored which identifies the date of the transaction, the account, each item that is qualified under the account, a description and quantity of each item, and the total monetary amount of the transaction related to such qualified items. The account transaction records for a particular consumer are used to generate a report that contains data for every transaction on the account. The report can be limited to those transactions that occurred during a period of time, such as a calendar year.
