How does Rosa rank search results on Rosa.be?

Rosa allows patients to search for health professionals and book medical appointments online. To start a search, patients need to enter the name of a health professional or a specialty (1); and/or a location (2). Patients also have the possibility to filter and sort their search results.

The search results are ranked based on the following logic:

The health professionals that are listed in the search results are limited to those who have signed up to Rosa or who work for an organization that has signed up to Rosa;
The search results will display health professionals ranked based on their distance to the searched location and their availability for new patients as from the date and time of the search. When two or more health professionals are located at the same location and have the same available slots, the ranking between them is made randomly;
Health professionals cannot pay for a better ranking; and
Ranking logic is validated by Rosa’s Ethics, Scientific and Medical Committee, a body composed of independent health professionals advisors.

The results list might be altered based on the filters and sorting preferences of the patient (3,4,5).
