PriorityHealth24

Editorial policy

Draft: this policy is being confirmed with our content and medical team and may change before launch.

At a glance

  • Every condition guide and lab test page is reviewed by a named, registered doctor before it's published.
  • We show who reviewed each page and when, and re-review content at least every 12 months.
  • We base content on established clinical guidelines and peer-reviewed research, written in plain language for patients in India.
  • Doctors, clinics and labs can't pay to influence our content or rankings.
  • If you spot an error, tell us and we'll check and correct it.

1.Why this policy exists

People use PriorityHealth24 to make decisions about their health. This policy explains how we create, review and update our health content, so you can judge whether to trust it. It covers condition guides, lab test pages, FAQs and videos.

2.Our principles

  • Accurate: grounded in current clinical evidence and checked by a doctor.
  • Useful: specific enough to act on, like which test to get, how to prepare, and when to see a doctor urgently.
  • Clear: plain language, short sentences, and medical terms explained when we use them.
  • Relevant to India: tests, medicines, costs in rupees and care pathways that apply here.
  • Honest: we say when evidence is uncertain, and we never promise cures or use fear to drive bookings.
  • Safe: every guide makes urgent warning signs easy to find, and points to a doctor for decisions about your care.

3.How we create content

StepWhat happens
1. PlanWe choose topics from questions patients ask us, doctors' suggestions and what people search for.
2. Research and writeA health writer drafts the page from the sources described below, recording each source used.
3. Medical reviewA registered doctor with relevant expertise checks the page for accuracy, safety, missing warning signs and anything that could be misread. They can request changes or reject the page.
4. EditAn editor checks the page is clear, consistent and free of jargon, without changing the medical meaning.
5. PublishThe page shows the reviewing doctor's name, qualifications and the date it was last reviewed.
6. Keep up to dateEvery page is re-reviewed at least every 12 months, and sooner when guidelines change or a reader reports a problem.

4.Our medical reviewers

  • Reviewers are doctors registered with the National Medical Commission or a state medical council. We check each registration before they review content.
  • They review topics within their specialty. For example, thyroid content is reviewed by endocrinologists or physicians experienced in thyroid care.
  • Each reviewer's name and qualifications link to their profile, so you can see who stands behind a page.

Some reviewers also see patients through PriorityHealth24. Reviewers declare this, and their review role never affects how doctors are listed or ranked. Content doesn't recommend a specific doctor.

5.Sources we use

  • Clinical practice guidelines from national and international bodies, such as the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR), the World Health Organization (WHO), NICE, and specialist societies like the American Thyroid Association.
  • Peer-reviewed research, with a preference for systematic reviews and large, well-designed studies.
  • Official information on medicines and tests, including prescribing information and accredited lab guidance.

We don't rely on forums, social media, press releases or single small studies. Where good evidence is limited or experts disagree, we say so.

6.Use of AI tools

We may use AI tools to help with research, first drafts and editing. AI never publishes content on its own: every page is checked against sources by a person and reviewed by a registered doctor before it goes live, and the reviewer is accountable for its medical accuracy.

7.Independence from advertising and partners

  • Doctors, clinics and labs cannot pay for, sponsor or approve our health content.
  • Partners are never ranked higher in listings for paying us, and content never recommends a particular partner.
  • We don't publish sponsored health content or advertorials.
  • Commercial teams have no say over what our content says about a condition, test or treatment.

8.Corrections and feedback

If you think something on PriorityHealth24 is inaccurate, unclear or out of date, email [support@your-domain]. An editor will reply within 5 business days, and a medical reviewer will check anything clinical.

When we fix a medical error, we update the page and its review date. For significant corrections we add a short note to the page explaining what changed.

9.What our content isn't

Even with careful review, our content is general information, not medical advice for you. Read our Medical Disclaimer, and talk to a doctor about your own situation.
