1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
- for a predetermined user, in a computer system receiving a user-selected set of healthcare facility selection factor importance weights, each of said healthcare facility selection importance weights associated with a corresponding different healthcare facility selection factor from a set of healthcare facility selection factors;
for each of a plurality of healthcare facilities, via the computer system automatically obtaining a healthcare facility score for each healthcare facility selection factor of the set of healthcare facility selection factors;
for each of said plurality of healthcare facilities, via the computer system automatically determining for each healthcare facility selection factor of the set of healthcare facility selection factors an adjusted score corresponding to the healthcare facility score, each adjusted score determined from a statistical measure relating the corresponding healthcare facility score for that healthcare facility and that healthcare facility selection factor to a group healthcare facility score for that healthcare facility selection factor, said group healthcare facility score for that healthcare facility selection factor derived from the healthcare facility scores for that healthcare facility selection factor for all of said plurality of healthcare facilities;
for each healthcare facility selection factor, via the computer system automatically, for each healthcare facility selection factor of the set of healthcare facility selection factors, determining a weighted score from said adjusted score and said associated healthcare facility selection importance weight;
for each of said plurality of healthcare facilities, via the computer system determining an absolute score from said plurality of weighted scores; and
via the computer system ranking the healthcare facilities among the plurality of health care facilities based on said absolute scores.
