HEALTH ANSWERS ON ONE CENTRAL WEBSITE
Want to know which Palm Beach County or
Treasure Coast hospital treats the most
patients? How
about which
HMO's have the best
rating from members regarding their ease in getting in to see a
specialist? Or which outpatient
health center performs the
most
cataract surgeries?
For the answers to
these questions and hundreds of other details about Florida health
providers, check
out the state's
new consumer Web site,
www.Floridahealthfinder.gov. The single state website brings together two older ones, the
www.FloridaHealthStat.com
and the
www.FloridaCompareCare.gov websites
into a central site.
On the new site, you can find information to help
you compare hospitals, ambulatory surgery centers,
health plans
nursing homes and prescription drugs. The site also lists
Florida health care facilities, information on health insurance,
medical resources for the uninsured, resources for seniors and much
more. - Phil Galewitz
