Got it working after some refreshing. Getting errors while trying to make it work locally, though.

The read-only demo is at http://eligible-demo.herokuapp.com/.

Not that I understand what this is supposed to be about, though.

Feel free to post details on any errors. Issues page on github is probably the best place, once it's back up.

Well, can someone explain what this is about in the meantime?

Eligible is a Health Information API that launched last summer (YC S12, I think). This sample app is a basic demonstration of the API's ability to instantly show patient eligibility information for specific medical procedures. Prior to their API one would have to call insurers and other groups to verify eligibility, rates, etc. They are doing some very cool stuff to normalize health data across many different systems.

They also used to have a consumer app to do this.

weeee github is back up!
