What to know
Whole-company price (analytics and consulting included, contingent payments excluded), so a low anchor rather than a per-record licence. The release does not name the data kind; PRA's 2020 Form 10-K describes the asset as prescription and claims transactions (about 1.2 billion claims for more than 300 million patients).
Arithmetic
$530,000,000 / 280,000,000 lives = $1.89 per life.
