U.S. News & World Report has added a new information feature, areas of expertise, to its Doctor Finder tool for patients.
Its search tool allows patients access to the profiles of more than 100,000 physicians nationwide, according to an April 26 press release.
Through a new collaboration with healthcare analytics company CareJourney, Doctor Finder has incorporated data-driven insights allowing patients to compare physicians based on areas of expertise by displaying the relative frequency at which a physician has treated a specific condition or has performed a specific procedure.
The areas of expertise insights will be featured on physician profiles for specialities including cardiology, oncology, gastroenterology and orthopedics.
