SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico , March 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Personal finance digital platform Money today announced the release of two new flagship rankings: Best Hospitals and Best Over-the-Counter Drugs. The latter was created in partnership with Drugs.com. Both of these destinations will give readers up-to-date information on the best hospitals and over-the-counter drugs, with Money’s longstanding value perspective for readers.

“These two new flagship editorial initiatives allow everyone to make the best decisions regarding spending in a crucial aspect of their lives,” says executive editor Mike Ayers. “We hope this destination will help those looking to understand the financial implications of the health marketplace and where the best values exist.”
