Routing methods and systems for increasing payment transaction volume and profitability

Customers often have access to multiple payment methods for any given transaction. In one embodiment of the invention, a merchant obtains information regarding multiple payment methods from a customer, and sends said information to a transaction evaluator. Via computer networks, the transaction evaluator sends information about the transaction to the issuers of one or more of the payment methods. The issuers perform a cost / benefit analysis of the transactions and respond with a description of the terms under which they are willing to process the transaction. Based on the issuer response, the transaction evaluator selects one of the payment methods. By enabling participating issuers to select favorable transactions and avoid unprofitable ones, the invention can thus improve issuer profitability by directing profitable transactions to participating issuers while directing unprofitable transactions away from participating issuers or to alternate transaction methods that are more profitable or less costly.

Method and system for provision and acquisition of medical services and products

Transactional costs associated with providing professional services are reduced by allowing prospective patients / clients (bidders) and professional service providers to negotiate competitively for desired fees for proffered services through an interactive on-line communications network such as the Internet. In an exemplary arrangement, a transaction system includes a communications network server that interfaces and communicates online with client computer systems belonging to various prospective bidders and personal medical service providers using, for example, an exchange of HTML documents and / or JAVA script applets. A transaction system server handles online communications and procedures for conducting auctions for delivery of proffered services and maintains a registration database of service providers and bidders. An authentication / qualifier engine automatically researches and verifies service provider credentials and background information upon registration of a service provider with the system. Service provider qualification credentials and medical procedural code information databases as well as one or more search engines for verifying and / or researching the qualifications of a particular service provider are provided and made available to a bidder via, for example, a web-page menu driven interface. A service feedback interface and database are provided for handling online feedback information and comments from patients / clients and providers regarding the complexity and quality of services received or provided. The transaction system may also include remote client system software / hardware facilities for bidders and providers for providing customized database and computational services for communicating and participating in online bidding activities.

Method and system for provision and acquisition of medical services and products

Transactional costs associated with providing professional services are reduced by enabling prospective clients / patients and professional service providers to competitively negotiate fees for proffered services through an interactive on-line professional services auction transaction system implemented over a publicly accessible communications network such as the Internet. A separate on-line auction transaction system, which shares database resources with the professional services auction transaction system, is also provided for implementing an arrangement for auctioning options to purchase services at a discount-such as discount coupons that are applicable toward fees charged for proffered professional services. A person-to-person network marketing arrangement for rewarding existing member professional service providers for recruiting prospective new service provider members and training them in the use of the on-line auction transaction systems is also fostered and supported via the on-line professional services auction transaction system.

Systems and methods for forming raised markings on substrates for braille identification and security and to facilitate automatic handling of the substrates

Haptic or tactile features, which are generally not visually perceptible or reproducible, are applied at varying positions on a substrate according to a predetermined scheme. A plurality of raised image areas are specified for a group of substrates and raised marks are printed in only one raised image area for each substrate in a manner that is evenly distributed between the raised image areas for the group of substrates. The substrates will present a relatively uniform stack avoiding localized large pile heights when the substrates are stacked. A clear marking material is used to print the raised marks so as not to obscure underlying data printed on the substrate. The clear marking material may include a monomer that may become cross-linked in an exposure process to resist deinking of the substrate. The clear marking material may be mixed with a phosphorescing or fluorescing material as an additional security measure.
