Methods and systems for generating episodes of activity, such as episodes of care. One method includes generating, by a processor, a graphical user interface for display to a user. The method also includes receiving, by a processor, (1) a first selection of a trigger event for an episode of care from the user through the graphical user interface, (2) a second selection of at least one time period for the episode of care from the user through the graphical user interface, and (3) a third selection of at least one claim category for the episode of care from the user through the graphical user interface. The method further includes creating, by the processor, parameters for the episode of care based on the first, second, and third selections, wherein the parameters are applied to a plurality of medical claims to group at least two of the plurality of medical claims.
