1. A method comprising:
- using medical claims data to determine a treatment rate for a number of medical providers based on treated and untreated patients;
using pharmacological script data that includes prescription behavior for treated patients, but does not include prescription behavior for untreated patients, to model the treatment rate determined from the medical claims data based on data contained in the script data; and
using the model to predict treatment rates for providers based on script data for such providers.

12. A method comprising:
-
using a superset of medical data to determine a parameter for a number of medical providers;
using a subset of the medical data from which the parameter cannot be directly determined to model the parameter determined from the superset based on data contained in the subset; and
using the model to predict the parameter for medical providers based on the subset of medical data for such providers. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17)
