Trip Categorization Architecture

Executive-grade rules for the AI Reservation Engine across the Executive Portal, Hospital Portals, and the Digital MCS. The Copilot MCS Digital agent reads each trip's document to determine direction, CMS coverage, mobility category, service type, price, vehicle, and devices — protecting hospital liability.

Book a Trip
Outbound — Hospital → Home
EMTALA-covered

Discharge or After-Visit trip from hospital to patient home (or temporary destination within 20 miles for After-Visit only).

Discharge
Doc: Doctor-Signed Discharge Paper
After Visit
Doc: Doctor Appointment Document (same-day as prior inbound trip)
Required Document: Doctor-Signed Discharge Paper
patient namedischarge datedischarge timedoctor signaturehospital namehospital npi
Rule: CMS covers outbound discharge trips only if the discharge document is uploaded AND the trip occurs on the same day as the discharge date/time.
Inbound — Home → Hospital
CDS Safety Insurance (Inbound)

Patient home to hospital. Not covered under EMTALA; 10% Inbound Insurance premium added and claimed to CMS. $0 cost to the institution.

Required Document: Doctor Appointment Document
patient nameappointment dateappointment timedepartment specialtyhospital namehospital npi
Rule: All trips sent to hospitals are inbound trips. Not covered under EMTALA; covered under CDS Safety Insurance (Inbound). 10% inbound premium added.
Transfer — Facility → Facility
EMTALA-covered

Hospital-to-hospital or facility-to-facility. Requires full medical justification; CMS audits heavily.

Required Document: Full Patient Health Record + Recent Action Report

Rule: Transfers require complete medical justification. If full records are not uploaded, iSMART2 BLOCKS the reservation.
Outbound Destination Override Rule

Outbound trips default to the patient's registered home address for CMS billing.

After-Visit trips may use a temporary destination (supermarket, shopping center) within 20 miles of the hospital. Discharge trips MUST go to the home address only.

If a temporary destination exceeds 20 miles from the hospital, the Digital MCS overrides and resets the destination to the patient's home address.
RCM Billing Rules — Inbound Trips

Inbound billing contains two categories: Trip Fee and 10% Inbound Premium Fee.

  • RCM deducts 3% only from the Inbound Premium Fee (0% of the Trip Fee).
  • The Trip Fee is paid in full to the driver → CDS Provider Bank Account.
  • The remaining premium (after 3% RCM fee) → Taya Healthcare Solutions Bank Account.
Example
Trip Fee = $100Inbound Premium = $10Total = $110RCM revenue = $0.3 (3% of $10)
Caravan 911 — Emergency Medical Transportation
CDS-911 Yellow — Non-Critical TripIN SERVICE
2 CDS drivers, 2 Divine Express vehicles, one mission destination. $400 per trip ($200 per CDS driver).
$400/trip · $200/driver
CDS-911 Red — Critical Trip (Paramedic)NOT IN SERVICE
Not in service until an Ambulance Company requests transition.
License fee: $350/yr · Paramedics must pass the online CDS curriculum training to obtain the CDS-911 Red license.
Insurance: $4800/yr with Sempouse · $5400/yr without (+$600)
Ambulance vehicles may qualify as Divine Express when operating under CDS-911 Red without siren and without stretcher/gurney, using the Dual Wheel system (Taya Foundation invention).
Copilot MCS Digital — AI Workflow Summary

For every trip, the AI reads the uploaded document and executes the workflow for the detected trip type. The Digital MCS determines categorization for each hospital to protect liability.

Outbound — Hospital → Home
1.AI reads and categorizes document as Discharge or After-Visit
2.AI confirms same-day match for After-Visit with prior inbound trip (discharge has no date restriction)
3.AI classifies trip as Outbound (Discharge or After-Visit)
4.AI determines mobility category (wheelchair / non-wheelchair)
5.AI calculates price from distance (default: hospital → patient home address)
6.AI enforces destination rule: home address default; temp destination allowed within 20 miles for After-Visit only; discharge must be home only
7.AI overrides destination to home if temp exceeds 20 miles
8.AI selects lowest legal price
9.AI activates reservation
Inbound — Home → Hospital
1.AI reads appointment document
2.AI classifies trip as Inbound
3.AI determines mobility category
4.AI calculates distance
5.AI selects lowest legal price plus 10% Inbound Insurance Premium
6.AI activates reservation
Transfer — Facility → Facility
1.AI reads full medical record
2.AI confirms transfer necessity
3.AI classifies trip as Transfer
4.AI determines mobility category
5.AI calculates distance
6.AI selects correct category (often High-Risk or Oxygen-Dependent)
7.AI activates reservation (blocks if full records missing)
