COMMENTS
In most cases a(n) = A288814(prime(n)) but there are exceptions, e.g., a(37)=213, whereas A288814(37)=248. Other exceptions include a(53), a(67), a(127), a(137), etc. These examples occur when there is a number r such that A001414(r*p) is less than A288814(p).
The strictly increasing subsequence of terms (10, 22, 34, 58, 82, 118, 142, 202, 214, 274, 298, ...) where for all m>n, a(m)>a(n) gives the semiprimes with prime sum of prime factors, A108605. The sequence of the indices of this subsequence (5, 7, 13, 19, 31, 43, 61, 73, 103, 109, 139, 151, ...) gives the greater of twin primes, A006512.

EXAMPLE
a(5)=6 because 6 = 2*3 is the smallest number whose sum of prime divisors (2+3 = 5) is divisible by 5.
a(37) = 213 = A288814(74) = A288814(2*37).
