From Wallet Hub July 30, 2014

With August being National Immunization Awareness Month and the cost of health care continuing to disappoint Americans, the leading personal finance social network WalletHub conducted an in-depth analysis of 2014's States with the Best & Worst Health ROI.

To examine the quality of American health care relative to its cost, WalletHub used data from 47 states to construct a health-related return on investment (ROI) metric. In doing so, WalletHub can educate Americans on the level of care they can expect for the price they must pay in their states.
