Claim Text:
1. A process for transforming health-related data for an individual from multiple sources in preparation for health-related analytical processing thereof comprising: extracting by a first processing system core data files from a core system, the core data files containing medical claims payment data which is separately processed by the core system to determine payment by a payer to a medical service provider for medical services provided to the individual, wherein the core data files also contain first health-related data for the individual; loading by the first processing system the extracted core data files, including the first health-related data for the individual, into a staging database; determining whether the individual has opted out of analytical processing of any portion of the first health-related data in the core data files; receiving by the first processing system non-core data files from a non-core system, the non-core data files containing second health-related data for the individual; loading by the first processing system the extracted non-core data files, including the second health-related data for the individual, into the staging database; determining whether the individual has opted out of analytical processing of any portion of the second health-related data in the non-core data files; matching by the first processing system staged first and second health-related data from the core and non-core data files to the same individual using one or more matching rules, wherein opted-out portions of the first and second health related data are excluded from the matching; compressing by the first processing system the matched first and second health-related data for the individual into at least one compressed file, wherein each portion of the matched first and second health-related data in the at least one compressed file is assigned an identical universal individual identifier and the universal individual identifier is unique to the individual; providing the at least one compressed file to an analytics engine for performing one or more predetermined analytical processes thereon and creating at least one analytics results file therefrom; receiving by a second processing system the at least one analytics results file from the analytics engine and decompressing the at least one analytics results file using the universal individual identifier to access the analytics results for the individual; and providing access to the analytics results for the individual to at least one user, wherein the user utilizes the analytics results in a process related to the health of the individual.
