1. An electronic data processing method, comprising:
- receiving a confidential electronic data record and an associated electronic data record at a first electronic data processing system;
electronically transmitting the confidential electronic data record and the associated electronic data record from the first electronic data processing system to a second electronic data processing system over an encrypted communications medium;
generating an electronic unique encrypted identifier associated with the confidential electronic data record and the associated electronic data record using the second electronic data processing system;
electronically transmitting the electronic unique encrypted identifier from the second electronic data processing system to the first electronic data processing system; and
storing the electronic unique encrypted identifier with the associated electronic data record and with a time field in an electronic data memory device, wherein the time field is used to determine a storage period for the electronic unique encrypted identifier, wherein the storage period is determined as a function of response data.
