Abstract:
1. A computer-implemented method for generating measurable indexes for providing a total wellness assessment of an individual, the method comprising: accessing a plurality of databases of population data derived from samplings of one or more populations the population data comprising data regarding a plurality of health related factors for the one or more populations; generating a plurality of weighting factors based upon a predetermined combination of the population data using a dynamic data integration and synthesis engine, each of the plurality of weighting factors corresponding to a different one of the plurality of health related factors; computing an first overall health score corresponding to the individual by combining at least one of the plurality of weighting factors with individual-specific data corresponding to at least a portion of the health related factors associated with the individual; computing an second overall health score corresponding to the one or more populations by combining the at least one of the plurality weighting factors with individual specific data corresponding to the portion of the health related factors associated with individuals in the one or more populations; determining a wellness of the individual related to the one or more populations based on the first and second overall health scores; deriving one or more sets of deviations for the plurality of health related factors the sets of deviations based upon projected changes in at least one therapeutic regime, environment, or behavior associated with the individual; and recalculating the first overall health scores for the individual using each of the sets of deviations to yield integrated overall health scores for each of the sets of deviations.
