This week's challenge comes from @Assaf_m - thank you for your contribution! We love when our users submit challenges that they've solved on the job!

 

The Input Data is a claims experience record for a group health insurance policy for 3 underwriting years. The data was converted from a PDF file - each page of the PDF is contained in a single cell of data.

 

Your goal is to extract the amounts shown next to each Accident Month (in the block of text under Period) and summarize them with regards to the Inception Date of the policy.

Not an elegant solution at all, but at least it matches the target output.

I had trouble with the header rows, so I hardcoded the header values. Everything else is dynamic.
