Claim 8:
9. A distributed analytics system for processing drug dispensing data to determine a possible drug misappropriation, the system comprising:
at least one processor; and
at least one storage device storing instructions which, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:
receiving drug dispensing data from one or more data sources, the one or more data sources comprising at least one of: one or more dispensing logs or one or more electronic medical records (EMRs) received from a healthcare provider network;
identifying a plurality of dispensing events by a plurality of users based at least in part on the one or more dispensing logs;
detecting at least one drug misappropriation event corresponding to at least one of the plurality of dispensing events based on at least one of one or more rules or one or more drug dispensing patterns;
determining at least one confidence level corresponding to the at least one detected possible drug misappropriation, wherein the at least one confidence level is based on at least one of which of the one or more rules the at least one detected possible drug misappropriation satisfies, which of the one or more drug dispensing patterns to which the at least one detected possible drug misappropriation relates, or a level of deviation of the at least one detected possible drug misappropriation from the one or more drug dispensing patterns; and
causing to display on an interface of a user device, by the distributed analytics system, an alert that includes:
detected possible drug misappropriation information of the at least one detected possible drug misappropriation and the at least one confidence level, and, a feedback component for receiving feedback that enables activation or deactivation of a rule of the one or more rules or a pattern of the one or more drug dispensing patterns.
