  • Apparatus and methods for causing privacy-sensitive direction of advertising messages based on prevalence of a healthcare condition in a plurality of geographic areas
    Patent number: 11521746
    Abstract: A computer system and method causes selection of an advertisement based on the prevalence of a healthcare condition in each of a plurality of geographic areas. The prevalence is calculated by an entity that matches healthcare data with consumer data to determine, in each of the geographic areas, how many individuals have an unidentified healthcare condition. The entity removes information pertaining to specific geographic areas and healthcare condition codes that would permit re-identification of persons coded with those specific codes, so that the privacy of the personal healthcare information is maintained.
