Fact-Checking Policy

Writers, editors, designers, and freelancers at JKhealth.org make every effort to get the facts behind every story, every time, right. The articles we publish are professionally edited, and most are reviewed by a copy editor. Nevertheless, mistakes, misspellings, or other miscues do happen. If we publish a story containing objective factual errors, misattributions, or other substantive mistakes, we will correct it as soon as possible and post a dated correction, clarification, or editor’s note on that article.

If you notice an error on the JKHEALTH website, it can be reported using the Contact Us form. We aim to review all corrections within 48 hours. You will be contacted by one of the editorial team with the outcome of the submission. Corrections are made at the discretion of JKHEALTH editors.
