Our Commitment
We are dedicated to publishing accurate, trustworthy information that helps readers make informed health decisions. Our fact-checking practices are designed to minimize errors, reduce bias, and uphold clarity across Primary Care, Behavioral Health, Addiction Recovery, and Family Programs.
Verification Process
Each piece of content is verified against multiple reputable sources, including peer-reviewed journals, recognized health agencies, clinical guidelines, and expert consensus statements. Claims, statistics, and definitions are cross-checked for consistency and context. We prioritize the most current and authoritative sources available and date-stamp updates to reflect new evidence.
Corrections & Updates
If an error is identified, we correct it promptly and transparently. Substantive changes are noted within the article, including what was corrected and, when relevant, why the update was necessary. Routine refresh cycles review older content for relevance, accuracy, and readability.
Editorial Independence
Our editorial team operates independently from advertisers and sponsors. Funding or partnerships do not influence claims, conclusions, or recommendations in our coverage. Any potential conflicts are disclosed when relevant.
Reader Feedback
We value community input. If you spot an error or believe additional context is needed, contact editorial@mcchc.org with the article URL, the issue you found, and suggested sources. We review credible submissions and respond as appropriate.
Why It Matters
Reliable information builds trust and helps people navigate care confidently. A rigorous fact-checking approach reduces misinformation, supports safer decisions, and respects the lived experiences of readers and their families.
