Comment on Show HN: We structured and compared hospital chargemaster prices

Some tweaks to the design would help!

At the top of the page, the search boxes are mis-aligned to the text above them. Fix that. They could also take up more horizontal space, or simply be aligned better.

Add an extra ~3-10px of horizontal padding to table cells (td's) Table headings should be text-align: center except for the longest field (hospital). Also, vertical-align: middle on table headings.

Link color on the tables could also be darker.

Add left-margin/padding on the (?) question mark icon at the top right of fields.

Font size on the search drop downs could be bigger.

May want to try the font "Open Sans", too, on the tables.

Add a hover effect for all links and buttons. It's kind of nuts that you could overlook that.

Add a focus effect for all inputs. Also make input font color brighter, and on focus, make font color darker.

On the "worst hospitals" table, the percentages could use a + sign before them like "+97%".
