Telehealth Ledger Score

Formula

Four parts, 25 points each. The published score is the sum rounded to the nearest integer. Halves round away from zero, which is what Math.round does for positive numbers. The result is clamped to 0–100.

1. Price versus the median comparison price of the same medication. The ratio is the median divided by the offer price, capped at 2. Points are that ratio divided by 2, then multiplied by 25. An offer at the median scores 12.5. An offer at half the median or below scores 25. An offer at twice the median scores 6.25, and a higher price scores less.
2. States. A recorded all-states offer scores 25. A restricted offer scores 25 times (50 minus the number of blocked states) divided by 50. An unverified state record scores 0. That zero is not a claim that the provider covers no states.
3. Transparency, in three equal thirds of 25. The price is disclosed on every ledger row. Medication inclusion scores only when the offer record says whether medication is included. A separate fee scores only when the monthly service fee or the first-month service fee is a number, including zero. Silence is not recorded as “no fee.”
4. Freshness, measured against 2026-10-21. 14 days or fewer scores 25, 30 or fewer scores 18, 45 or fewer scores 12, 60 or fewer scores 6, and older than 60 scores 0.

A medication section score is the median of every offer score in that medication, including rows hidden by a homepage filter. A provider score is the median of that provider’s ledger rows. A treatment score is the median of rows with that treatment. Medians of an even count are the mean of the two middle scores, then rounded.
