Terms of use

The short version: read freely, check the source, and ask a professional about your own situation.

News and information only

The Healthcare News Network (THCNN) publishes health news summaries and guides for general information. Nothing on this site is medical, legal, insurance or financial advice, and reading it doesn't create a doctor-patient or advisor-client relationship. Talk to a doctor, pharmacist or licensed advisor before making decisions about your health or coverage.

Accuracy

We work to keep everything accurate and up to date, but rules, prices and deadlines change. Always confirm important details with the official source we link to, such as Medicare.gov, HealthCare.gov or the Social Security Administration. See our corrections policy to report a mistake.

Links to other sites

Our summaries link to the original reporting on other websites. We don't control those sites and aren't responsible for their content or privacy practices.

Our content

You're welcome to share links to our pages. Please don't republish our summaries or guides in full without permission. Headlines and articles from other outlets belong to those outlets.

Advertising

THCNN is supported by ads, including ads served by Google. Ads are labeled and don't mean we endorse the advertiser. Our privacy policy explains how ad cookies work.

Changes and questions

We may update these terms from time to time; the current version is always on this page. Questions? Use our contact page.
