Reporting standard
Every story names the underlying source class and distinguishes what that source establishes from organization claims and Credentialing Current analysis. Headlines, decks, and answer capsules must not outrun the evidence.
Commercial separation
Paid distribution, sponsorship, events, and clearly labeled commercial programs remain separate from editorial ordering, market inclusion, factual treatment, research populations, findings, and corrections.
Automation
Automation may monitor sources, detect changes, normalize records, and prepare internal drafts. A human editor remains responsible for materiality, sourcing, factual integrity, context, conclusions, and publication.
High-stakes boundaries
Credentialing Current provides organizational research, not legal, accreditation, billing, enrollment, privileging, credentialing, sanctions, or exclusion determinations. Accountable organizations must review controlling sources and the facts of each provider, program, and jurisdiction.
Persistent standard
This policy applies to reporting, organization records, comparisons, research, sponsored programs, corrections, and any future commonly owned products.
