What is Minnesota HealthScoresSM?



Minnesota HealthScores is a non-profit Web site that provides objective information on the quality of health care in Minnesota and surrounding areas. Use this site to help you choose the best health care providers for you and your family.

• Search by zip code, county, city, provider network or clinic to find providers in your area.

• Compare clinics based on the quality of care they provide for different medical conditions, treatments and prevention.

The higher the score, the better they did in providing the right care.

Learn About Standards for Treatment and Prevention

Your individual health needs are unique, but there are standard treatments and prevention for most common conditions. When you know which treatments are recommended for your health condition you can start a discussion with your doctor and others on your health care team to make sure everyone is working together to provide the best care possible.

Take Charge of Your Own Care

The best way to improve the quality of your health care is to take charge of your own care.

• Share your concerns.
• Work with your health care team to find the best treatment for you.
• Ask any questions you may have.
• Talk to your health care team openly.
