Scoring & Ranking
Score each result by:
snippet_has_health_signals(contains: clinic, practice, dental, medical, healthcare, patients, MD, DDS) → weight 0.50valid_domain(not .gov, .edu, .wikipedia, .yelp) → weight 0.30position_score→ 1 - (position / total), weight 0.20
python
score = 0.50 * int(health_signals) + 0.30 * int(valid_domain) + 0.20 * position_scoreClassification
| Score | Tier | Label |
|---|---|---|
| ≥ 0.70 | A | PRIME_PROSPECT |
| 0.40–0.69 | B | WARM_LEAD |
| < 0.40 | C | LOW_PRIORITY |
Edge Cases
- Directory sites: Healthgrades, Zocdoc, WebMD listings — not practices. Filter by checking domain.
- Hospital systems: Large hospital networks are hard to reach. Focus on independent practices.
- No contact data: SERP returns URL and snippet only — no phone/email. Use as a starting list.
- Duplicate practices: Same clinic may appear for multiple search terms — deduplicate by domain.
- Specialty filter: Add specialty to search term: "orthopedic clinic Denver", "dermatology practice Miami".
