MD Insider brings together the best medical minds with the technological pioneers to answer one of the most important medical decisions you can make: whom to trust when seeking surgical attention.
Using massive volumes of available data, the MD Insider team organizes and analyzes the information based on criteria that matter to patients, then scores the doctors on a variety of quality criteria based on factual data, as well as actual procedure costs.
MD Insider comes to these assessments in a fair and impartial manner, not influenced by marketing material, business arrangements, or personal bias, with the express goal of matching a patient to the best possible doctor for his or her needs, goals, and budget.
Seeking advice is a natural, instinctive tendency when you want an opinion on a topic. However, this can be a problem when you’re seeking guidance for sensitive medical matters. Often, people don’t want to share information about their body’s vulnerabilities or ailments publicly. In other instances, such as with plastic surgery, secrecy is the goal. The best work typically looks like no work at all, and a patient may not care to discourage that belief. In fact, your friend may take it as an insult if you ask them about their plastic surgeon.
Real or Fake Review?
Compounding this problem is the scourge of fake reviews or ill-informed critiques on the internet. Reviews are a dime a dozen (sometimes literally) on the internet, and scores of rave reviews may not tell the whole story. The same goes for bad comments leveled at a doctor or other medical practitioner. The good reviews could’ve been bought and falsely planted; a competitor could do the same with the critical comments. There is simply more to online reviews than the average internet user can imagine.
The MD Insider Process
This is where MD Insider comes in. MD Insider takes away all this noise and instead focuses on the data to determine the best doctor with the fairest costs for your needs. It starts with the data and valuable insight from MD Insider’s panel of consulting doctors; together, they determine the physician’s MD Insider Quality Score, in which higher is better.
From there, MD Insider looks at claims data, such as per CPT group and per facility, to reach an MD Insider Cost Score. This number reveals which doctors at which facilities offer the most value for your money. The final part of the puzzle is the MD Insider Quality to Cost Rating, as outlined in the two aforementioned categories. This way, you can compare each doctor in a fair, straightforward manner.
All this happens behind the scenes, but MD Insider’s biggest breakthrough may be in the concept of matching patients to doctors. Enter your criteria (as much or as little as you feel comfortable sharing), and MD Insider’s algorithm will find the best, most effective doctors in your network, individually matched to your profile, and it’s all presented to you in a clear, eye-catching, and illuminative form. When you see a good doctor, you will get well or maintain your health more quickly and consistently, which translates into fewer claims and complications. In turn, this leads to fewer reimbursables and, ultimately, fewer bills. Think of all the money you’ll be saving, simply by going to a good doctor.
