Medical review process

Last updated July 18, 2026

A qualified reviewer checks clinical accuracy, balance, safety language, regional limitations, and source quality before medical content is published. A review date is not a guarantee that every source remains unchanged; significant updates trigger earlier review.

What review covers

Reviewers confirm that claims are supported by appropriate sources, that uncertainty and regional variation are explained, that urgent-care guidance is present and accurate where relevant, and that the content does not diagnose, prescribe, or recommend an individual treatment.

Review intervals

Emergency and red-flag guidance is reviewed most frequently. Treatment, cancer, condition, symptom, and test content is reviewed on a scheduled cycle, and sooner when a guideline, regulator, or standard of care changes.

No unreviewed publication

Sample and draft content remains clearly labelled, excluded from search and search engines, and is never presented as reviewed medical information until a named, qualified reviewer has approved it.
