## Abstract

The disclosure according to some exemplary embodiments relates generally to an infrastructure for electronic records (e.g., electronic medical records (EMRs), electronic health records (EHRs), and personal health records (PHRs)). The infrastructure allows the use, for example, of the electronic records and other information sources to determine drug and other treatment prices that may differ from listed prices based on various factors, such as approved indication treated, the organization and/or individual responsible for payment, whether and what other drug or drugs are used as part of the treatment regimen, a diagnosis and treatment plan, and responses to treatment, among other factors. Advantageously, in some embodiments, systems and methods using the infrastructure allows patients to receive lower drug and treatment prices tailored to the patients' needs and can increase patients' access to drugs and other treatments.

## Claims

### Claim 1

An electronic data infrastructure comprising:
a memory storing instructions; and
a hardware processor to execute the instructions to:
identify a first electronic data record for a first patient based on a first identifier associated with the first electronic data record in a medical information electronic data repository;
analyze the first electronic data record to identify first data corresponding to patient information for the first patient based on a second identifier;
analyze the first electronic data record to identify second data corresponding to a first therapeutic intervention for the first patient based on a third identifier;
set a value for the first therapeutic intervention based at least in part on the first data and the second data; and
associate the value for the first therapeutic intervention with the first electronic data record.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The electronic data infrastructure of claim 1,
wherein the first data comprises an approved indication treated with the first therapeutic intervention; and
the hardware processor further to execute the instructions to determine the value for the first therapeutic intervention based at least in part on the approved indication treated with the first therapeutic intervention.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The electronic data infrastructure of claim 1, the hardware processor further to execute the instructions to determine the value by associating the second identifier and the third identifier with a corresponding second identifier and a corresponding third identifier associated with an agreed value table.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The electronic data infrastructure of claim 1, the hardware processor further to execute the instructions to
analyze the first electronic data record to identify third data corresponding to a second therapeutic intervention for the first patient based on a fourth identifier, the second therapeutic intervention is administered to the patient in combination with the first therapeutic intervention; and
determine the value for the first therapeutic intervention based at least in part on the first therapeutic intervention being administered in combination with the second therapeutic intervention.

### Claim 5 (depends on 4)

The electronic data infrastructure of claim 4, wherein the first therapeutic intervention is a first drug and the second therapeutic intervention is a second drug.

### Claim 6 (depends on 4)

The electronic data infrastructure of claim 4, wherein the first therapeutic intervention is a drug and the second therapeutic intervention is a non-drug intervention.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The electronic data infrastructure of claim 1,
wherein the first data comprises a patient's treatment results associated with administering the first therapeutic intervention; and
the hardware processor further to execute the instructions to determine the value for the first therapeutic intervention based at least in part on the treatment results associated with administering the first therapeutic intervention.

### Claim 8 (depends on 1)

The electronic data infrastructure of claim 1,
wherein the first data comprises a duration the first therapeutic intervention has been administered; and
the hardware processor further to execute the instructions to determine the value for the first therapeutic intervention based at least in part on the duration the first therapeutic intervention has been administered.

### Claim 9 (depends on 1)

The electronic data infrastructure of claim 1, the hardware processor further to execute the instructions to:
determine a first payer value for the first therapeutic intervention for a first payer based at least in part on the first data and the second data; and
determine a second payer value for the first therapeutic intervention for a second payer based at least in part on the first data and the second data.

### Claim 10 (depends on 1)

The electronic data infrastructure of claim 1, wherein the first electronic data record is at least one of an electronic medical record, an electronic health record, or a personal health record.

### Claim 11 (depends on 1)

The electronic data infrastructure of claim 1, the hardware processor further to execute the instructions to:
receive agreed pricing data from at least one of a seller and a payer;
determine the value for the first based at least in part on the agreed pricing data; and
send the value to at least one of the seller and the payer.

### Claim 12 (depends on 1)

The electronic data infrastructure of claim 1, the hardware processor further to execute the instructions to determine the value and send the value to the at least one of the seller and the payer without sharing the first data with the seller or the payer.

### Claim 13 (depends on 1)

The electronic data infrastructure of claim 1, wherein the first therapeutic intervention is a drug.
