Health Care Advocacy Group Database
Baron’s original database tracks the funding of health care advocacy groups, allowing users to search and filter through more than 600 organizations and 100 funders. This database accompanies the firm’s landmark report, “The Insider’s Guide to America’s Health Care Wars,” exploring how different types of health care companies are competing to shape the largest sector of the U.S. economy.
