Description

This extension assesses trustfulness of medical sources based on users and medical experts votes.

-----------------

According to the Office National Statistics, 54% of people in the UK are looking for health-related information online. The figures vary worldwide, but in the USA it might be even 80% according to NBC. However, not all medical information sources can be trusted.

Websites for Health Assessment Tool plug-in is here to help you!

This extension allows to assess the credibility of medical information online. It gives the websites scores from 0 to 10 based on averaged responses of medical experts and other Internet users.

The project was created by Health-IT enthusiasts during NHS Hack 2020 in Cardiff and is fully open source.
