How we research, write and correct our guides
The rules every Medslots guide and blog post follows before it goes live, and what to do if you spot a mistake.

Who writes these pages
The guides and posts on this site are published by the Medslots team at Letex Media Co. in Lucknow. Drafts are written with the help of AI tools. The Medslots team sets the rules every draft has to follow, the facts are checked against the sources named on the page, and a page only goes live once it passes the checks described below.
The byline on every page is the Medslots team, not a named doctor or outside expert. We do not want a byline to suggest a medical review that did not happen. Our pages are about running a clinic: patient enquiries, WhatsApp, missed calls, Google listings, reviews and advertising rules. They are not medical advice.
Where our facts come from
We go to the primary source wherever one exists: the National Medical Commission, Google and WhatsApp help pages, government press releases on PIB, the ASCI code, TRAI and official registers. When a vendor price is quoted, we link to that vendor's own pricing page so you can check it yourself.
- Every rule, price or number from outside Medslots links to its source.
- Each page ends with a list of its sources and the date we last checked each one.
- Guides and pages about rules also carry a Facts checked date near the top.
- When no reliable figure exists for India, we say so instead of filling the gap with a guess.
What we never make up
- No invented statistics, percentages, testimonials, clinic names or case studies.
- No repeating other companies' numbers when they do not show where the number came from.
- Calculators use only the numbers you type in, and show the sum they do.
- Example chats are labelled as samples, use no real patient names or phone numbers, and send clinical questions to the doctor.
Rules we follow on advertising, reviews and privacy
Many of our readers are doctors, so the pages follow the rules that apply to doctors in India. We will not suggest anything those rules do not allow.
- NMC: we follow the 2002 Code of Medical Ethics Regulations, and add a dated line on the status of the 2023 regulations wherever it matters. No advice on soliciting patients, discount blasts, patient testimonials as medical claims or before and after photos.
- ASCI: no superlatives or promised outcomes. Examples that involve money are worked out with your own numbers, never promised.
- Google reviews: no incentives, no asking only happy patients, and never posting on a patient's behalf.
- Patient data: pages about the DPDP Act are general explainers, marked as not legal advice, with links to the official text.
What we say about Medslots itself
Statements about Medslots come only from the company's confirmed facts, such as the price and what is included. Anything that is not confirmed yet stays off the page. Most pages have at most one short “Where Medslots fits” box and one closing link, so the guide stays useful whether or not you ever use Medslots.
Checks before a page goes live
Some checks are automatic. A page cannot be published if:
- its title or search description is too long to show properly in Google,
- a source is listed without a working secure (https) link,
- a guide has no facts-checked date or no key takeaways,
- it still has an open question that only the Medslots founders can answer.
The rest is a written checklist covering facts, compliance, plain writing, search basics and how the page works on a phone. Unfinished drafts are kept out of the sitemap and marked so search engines do not index them.
What the dates on a page mean
- Updated changes only when the content really changes, not when we fix a typo or rebuild the site.
- Facts checked is the date the rules, prices and numbers were last compared with their sources.
- The update log at the bottom of each page lists what changed and when.
How to report a mistake
If something on a page is wrong or out of date, email hello@medslots.com with the page link and what you think needs changing. A source link helps us check faster. If we find the page is wrong, we fix it, change the Updated date and add a note to that page's update log saying what was corrected. You can also reach us through the contact page.
