Editorial standards

Editorial and Medical Review Standards

Readers should be able to tell who wrote a page, what evidence supports it, and whether a clinician reviewed its medical content.

Editorial independence

Providers do not receive advance approval of our conclusions. Sponsored placement, if introduced, will be labeled separately from editorial rankings.

Medical review

We will not use a clinician's name as decoration. A medical reviewer must review the clinical portions of a page, flag unsupported claims, and approve the version carrying their review date.

Updates

Commercial data carries a last-verified date. Material changes to pricing, access, formulation, FDA status, or safety information trigger a review.

AI assistance

Automation may assist research organization, consistency checks, and drafting. A human editor remains responsible for source selection, factual verification, conclusions, and publication.
