This site watches the news for developments worth following in Medicare Advantage — the privately-run version of Medicare. A piece of software reads many sources and tries to surface the stories that matter. It isn't perfect, so it learns from people.
What a "signal" means
A signal is just a news story the system thinks is relevant — a policy change, an enrollment shift, a financial pressure, a strategic move. Each one gets a relevance score, and the ones that clear the bar show up in the feed.
What you can do (only if you want to)
- 👍 Relevant / 👎 Not relevant — one tap on any story tells the filter whether it got that one right. This is the most useful thing you can do, and it takes a second.
- Wrong category — if a story is on-topic but filed under the wrong heading, you can point it to the right one. This helps more than almost anything else, but it's entirely optional.
- Comment — on the public site you can sign in with GitHub and leave a note or react. Your reactions help curate the feed for everyone.
Is anything published?
No. Nothing you click here is posted anywhere. Your input simply adjusts what the system surfaces over time — it's a dial, not a megaphone. On the live app no account is needed; on the public site you sign in with GitHub so reactions can be attributed and kept spam-free.
Does it change instantly?
No — and that's deliberate. Feedback is collected and reviewed before it changes how stories are scored, so one stray tap never throws things off. Over time, the pattern of what people mark relevant teaches the filter to do better.
