Instruments of determined level of self-efficacy may be chosen dynamically for customized patient engagement, e.g., based on a patient's latent adherence trait estimated from lifestyle and other clinical data. Customization points in care plans may be identified, e.g., by monitoring an accumulative change in the patient's health literacy level. Clinical decision support at the point of care may be provided by adjusting patient engagement strategies and allocating resources accordingly.

Administering reward schemes. A first reward scheme is predefined by a computer system, the first reward scheme defining a first reward event. A second reward scheme is obtained externally by the computer system, the second reward scheme defining a second reward event. In response to an action by a user, the computer system determines whether the first reward event or the second reward event has been triggered. If the first reward event has been triggered, the computer system calculates a first reward for the user according the first reward scheme and if the second reward event has been triggered, the computer system calculates a second reward for the user according the second reward scheme. The second reward scheme may be obtained by, and shared to, the computer system as an inheritance of rules within an organization.
