The company bases its information on financial, organizational, and operational data gathered directly from a Web-based, proprietary database product called MECON-PEERnext. MECON benchmarks are drawn directly from hundreds of health care facilities and systems and track 31,000 items of information in over 280 departments. (For examples of available data from MECON, see chart, below, and bar graphs, p. 47.)
