Think New Mexico |
Santa Fe, New Mexico / $25,000 |

It has been nearly impossible
for New Mexico families to shop
for the highest quality, most
affordable health care. Seeking
to address the problem of health
care affordability, Think New
Mexico’s health care
transparency effort aims to make
the prices and quality metrics
of common
medical procedures at New Mexico
hospitals transparent on a
user-friendly public website. To
reform capital outlay in New
Mexico, Think New Mexico will
research, develop, and raise
awareness about an improved
method that the state could use
to prioritize and fund needed
public infrastructure while
avoiding partisan political
conflict. |
