Systems and methods for a health care E-commerce marketplace
Abstract:
Systems and methods for an e-commerce health care marketplace are provided. In one embodiment, a method comprises, responsive to a query from a user, retrieving from a database a list of responses comprising one or more health care providers offering one or more health care services at a provider-supplied price; filtering the list of responses based on a geographic location included in the query; providing, for display, the filtered list of responses; receiving a payment from the user for a response selected from the filtered list of responses; automatically sending a notification of the payment to a provider associated with the selected response; and responsive to receiving an order fulfillment notification from the provider, automatically providing the payment to the provider. In this way, health care consumers may make informed purchasing decisions when shopping for health care services and health care providers may receive prompt payment for services delivered.
