The purpose of this thesis is to contribute towards an improved healthcare priority system. It is imperative that the outcomes of health prioritization tools are accurate and up--‐to--‐date. Project Antares aims to outline future informed healthcare policies and has the potential to have a great impact in a near future over the decision makers of this field. In the last decade, many companies have successfully used crowdsourcing, act of outsourcing a task to an undefined large network to solve some of their most challenging issues. A survey conducted on Amazon Mechanical Turk, an online crowdsourcing platform, helped us infer a set of health priorities for India. Priority scores were computed from the data collected and the results are discussed in the context of the extant literature.
