The Puget Sound Health Alliance is a nonprofit organization where the people who get, provide and pay for health care come together to improve health care quality and affordability in a five-county region:  King, Kitsap, Pierce, Snohomish and Thurston counties.

Alliance participants include employers, physicians, hospitals, patients, health plans, and others from throughout the region. We measure the quality of health care and produce publicly available reports designed to help improve health care decision-making.

The Alliance's Community Checkup report measures the quality of care provided by hospitals, clinics, health plans and other health care providers in the Puget Sound region.  Visitors to the website will also find useful information and practical tools that can be helpful when making decisions about health care and what we can do to improve our health. For example, you can learn how to identify effective care, how to choose or design health benefit plans and how to decide which doctor to see and what questions to ask to get the best quality health care.
