This challenge seeks to promote the creation of better tools to support consumers in this situation.
This challenge is enhanced by the recent release of a data set from CMS that contains information about providers who participate in Medicare. The data includes information about the demographics and health conditions of each provider's patients, which is very important for many patients who would like to identify a provider who treats patients like themselves.
