Editorial policy

How we gather, check and publish the news.

We summarize news in our own words and always link to the original source.
We prefer primary sources, including CMS, Medicare.gov, Social Security, the FDA, the CDC and KFF.
Projections are labeled as projections until official figures are released.
We use AI tools to help gather and draft summaries, and every story is checked against its source before publishing.
We don't give medical, legal, insurance or investment advice.
Advertising never influences our coverage.
Ads are clearly labeled "Advertisement".
