Editorial Policy

Last updated: May 14, 2026

Purpose

Med-in-Korea publishes educational content to help foreign patients ask better questions before choosing healthcare services in Korea.

Source standards

We prefer official Korean government, public institution, hospital-system, dispute-resolution, and regulator resources where available. Commercial clinic pages may be useful for service descriptions, but they are not treated as neutral proof of safety or quality.

Editorial independence

Content should not rank or promote individual clinics unless a transparent evaluation method and commercial relationship disclosure exist. Doctors may review their own quoted answers for accuracy, but Med-in-Korea should retain final editorial control.

Medical boundaries

Articles should help readers prepare questions and understand risks. They should not diagnose symptoms, choose a treatment, promise outcomes, or replace consultation with qualified professionals.
