Problem

GDIT healthcare claims analytics requires a daily view of prescription claim volume for each provider. Write a PostgreSQL query that calculates a rolling 30-day average, including calendar days with zero claims.

Requirements

Count prescription claims per provider and calendar date.
Include every provider for every date between the first and last valid prescription claim, treating missing daily activity as zero.
Use a window function partitioned by provider and ordered by date to calculate the average across the current day and preceding 29 calendar days.
For the supplied sample, return only the final calendar date, ordered by provider ID.
