Mapping Local Health Care Prices – A Crowdsourcing Consortium

clear

We are a group of public radio stations, collaborative news ventures and nonprofits partnering with each other and with our communities to create reported and crowdsourced regional databases of health-care prices.

The project will not only generate unprecedented transparency to help health-care consumers make smart decisions and journalists do brilliant stories, it will also create novel digital pathways so consumers can contribute their knowledge and experiences. Further, the regional databases have value on a national scale for comparison and in-depth analysis.
