The list of best employers was made in three categories:

- Healthcare Providers
- Healthcare Payers
- Healthcare Suppliers

The first category of Healthcare Providers included all clinics, hospitals and other care giving institutions. They ranged from for profit to nonprofit organizations, from hospitals to Palliative Care Institutions. The Second category included institutions that provided care on behalf of someone. They also included both for profit and nonprofit institutions. The suppliers included all firms which supplied some form of equipment of service to patients.

The Survey methodology was primarily based on questionnaires, sent to both, employees and employers, on internet. These employees and employees who had no access to internet were provided with paper surveys and then all results were collated. Both sets of data went into making the report. This method ensures that there is no bias in results reported.

All firms which participated were sent a free report based on data analysis. Since, the number of participants from each firm was calculated on basis of company size, each survey carried a weighted average. The survey was very thorough; results were analyzed and then published.

This survey did not include companies which are located outside USA. Employers at all levels are included in these surveys. The whole survey will take about 8-10 hours. This survey is kept confidential. Before you or your employer participates, you can see the survey, a sample survey, before you finally take a decision on whether to participate or not. If you like, you can benchmark your company with other firms also.
