Every listing in this directory is scored by the same formula, and the same weights are applied in every city. A listing's score is its patient rating multiplied by 20, plus its review count — counted up to a maximum of 50 — multiplied by 0.6, plus 5 points for each level recorded by our listing-claim process, plus 10 points if it publishes a monthly price, plus 10 points if it is accepting new patients, plus 5 points if it offers telehealth, plus its Google rating multiplied by 2. Nothing else is scored. Insurance acceptance, cultural competency, transit access, hospital affiliation, FEHB compatibility and patient outcomes are not inputs. The listing-claim level records how far a listing's owner has progressed through our claim form; a claim is confirmed when the owner's email or website domain matches the listing, which is not a check of identity. We do not verify licensure or credentials.
