While America is a frontrunner in healthcare spending, the complex mosaic of health outcomes across the 50 states paints an intriguing picture. Beginning with a detailed analysis of the United States' health standards, this article sets forth to rank states based on a comprehensive 'Health Index Score'. This score is a quantifiable representation of health in various states on the back of key determinants such as disease prevalence, quality of healthcare, lifestyle factors, and access to health services amongst others.
