Sketching something that might work

Preface: The goal is to place good information at the center of health-related decisions. Right now noone, not even Drs. or medical institutions, has good information on which specialist, organization or group is the best person to go to for treatment of a specific issue.

The problem is tricky because hospitals and such not only have to guard their data for privacy reasons but also because they view it as valuable and tend to be hesitant to share it.

Here is a plan that might work for getting institutions to be more sharing and might make people more aware of the differences out there:

  1. Gather information on everybody and report the info to each individual institution.
  2. Publish information on the top 5 institutions and possibly on the bottom 5 institutions.
