## How we verify information on Medova

- We separate factual data from marketing claims.

- We track sources and update dates whenever possible.

- We prefer structured fields (prices, dates, scope) over vague descriptions.

- If something can’t be confirmed, we label it as such.

## Confidence signals (what they mean)

You will see these signals next to selected information. They are meant to reduce “guessing”.

> **Source required**
>
> We store a link or reference for the claim (when available).

> **Reviewed**
>
> A medical reviewer checked the wording and safety notes.

> **Last reviewed**
>
> You can see when we last verified the information.

> **Country-specific**
>
> The guidance depends on destination rules and local epidemiology.

## What we check (practical, not theoretical)

**What we check (practical, not theoretical)**

- [ ] Is the scope explicit? (what is included / excluded)
- [ ] Are prices comparable? (total cost, not only “from” price)
- [ ] Are dates clear? (validity, updatedAt, review cadence)
- [ ] Are safety red flags included? (when to consult a clinician)
- [ ] Is the source credible and current? (and do we link it)

## How to use this page

**How to use this page**

1. [ ] Start with confidence signals next to the data you care about.
2. [ ] Compare structured fields first (scope, total cost, dates) — not slogans.
3. [ ] If something is missing, ask for the source and the last update date.

## Example: “verified” vs marketing

1. Offer A shows total cost, what is included, and an aftercare timeline.

1. Offer B shows only a “from” price and avoids the scope details.

1. We rank A higher and treat B as incomplete until clarified.

## What we don’t do

- We don’t promise outcomes (“guaranteed”, “risk-free”).

- We don’t replace a clinician — we help you ask better questions.

- We don’t hide uncertainty — if data is missing, we show that clearly.

## Help us improve

If you spot an inconsistency, outdated source, or missing detail, send it to us. We use feedback to improve ranking and clarity over time.
