Making sure you’re getting high-value health care can be complicated. If you’re buying a new pair of jeans or a new car, you already know how to find good value. But it’s harder when it comes to health care. Quality can vary widely. Costs are all over the map, and paying more doesn’t necessarily mean you’re getting better care. Having good health information and the tools and resources you need to make decisions can help you become your own best advocate and improve the system as a whole.
