Abstract

A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided to estimate at least one target quantitative measure based upon historical electronic messages. The historical electronic messages may be partitioned based on geographic areas. The target quantitative measure may be estimated based upon respective binary categorical indicators, and respective quantitative measures of the historical electronic messages. The target quantitative measure may be adjusted dependent upon a quantitative criterion of an entity. The target quantitative measure may be used to price prescription drugs and/or the like, and may impact prescription adherence and/or pharmacy profit margins.
