Abstract

Dynamically determining an optimum connectivity path is provided. Default paths to connectivity sources associated with a payer may be determined and ranked based on various metrics, such as availability, content, and cost. When a connection to a primary connectivity source is determined to be down or unresponsive, a request may automatically be routed to a next connectivity source, wherein the next connectivity source is determined to be a next highest ranking connectivity source based on the various metrics. Data associated with availability, content, cost, and other attributes may be collected, stored in a database, and utilized to rank connectivity sources. Accordingly, as new information about a payer or connectivity source is discovered, default paths and rankings of connectivity sources may change.
