Presidential Recognition
The Voice of and for the Patient
Helping health consumers make informed decisions about their health care.
Medical errors are the third leading cause of deaths after heart disease and cancer. Each year, an estimated quarter of a million patients (range 250,000 - 440,000) die from medical errors. Millions more are affected from shabby care, bad treatments, and poor services from healthcare providers.
Hospital stays are expensive - adding up to more than $3.3 trillion a year. There is no standard system that determines what a hospital charges for a particular service or procedure. So, we created our site to help patients see how their hospital compare with others.

While others talked, we listened
We listened to the numerous emails and letters of complaints, suggestions, and feedback from patients and have compiled a list of stories that stirred our readers to action to improve a process of care, or get involved in a cause, or in some cases provoked a solution to a healthcare problem.
