Our Editorial Standards

At Nest Health, we create health content that families rely on when making important decisions for their children and loved ones. We take that responsibility seriously. This page explains how we develop, review, and maintain our content so you understand the standards behind everything we publish.

Our Commitment to You

We aim to make our content clear, trustworthy, and useful for the families we serve.

  • Accuracy: Our content is grounded in evidence and clinically verified before publication

  • Accessibility: We write in plain language so families can easily understand and act on the information

  • Relevance: We focus on real questions Medicaid families face, from everyday health concerns to navigating benefits

  • Safety: Clinical guidance is reviewed before publication, and urgent or emergency guidance is clearly stated

  • Ongoing oversight: We review and update content as medical guidance and public programs change

Who Creates Our Content

Our health content is written by experienced writers who focus on healthcare, Medicaid, and family health topics. Writers use reputable sources and follow structured research processes to ensure accuracy.

All clinical content is reviewed by licensed healthcare professionals on the Nest Healthcare team before it is published.

We are continuing to expand transparency across our site. Individual author and reviewer profiles will be added over time so readers can better understand the people behind our content.

Our Clinical Review Process

All content that includes clinical guidance is reviewed by a licensed healthcare professional before publication.

This includes:

  • Medication dosage guidance

  • Pediatric health content

  • Symptom and condition guides

  • Preventive care recommendations

Reviewers may include physicians, nurse practitioners, or other licensed clinicians on the Nest Health team. When applicable, reviewer names and credentials are listed on individual articles.

Content that directly impacts child safety, such as medication dosage charts and fever guidance, receives additional clinical review.

If you or someone you know is experiencing a medical emergency, call 911 immediately.

How We Source Information

We base our content on reliable, evidence-based sources. These include:

  • Federal health agencies such as the CDC, FDA, and NIH

  • Professional medical organizations such as the American Academy of Pediatrics and the American Medical Association

  • Peer-reviewed research and clinical studies

  • Official state Medicaid resources, including AHCCCS and Louisiana Medicaid

We link to sources within articles when relevant and include a sources or references section on pages that require it.

Nest Health does not accept paid placement or advertiser influence in our content. All editorial decisions are made independently, with a focus on accuracy and usefulness for families.

How We Keep Content Current

Health information changes over time, and we work to keep our content up to date.

We review and update content when:

  • Medical guidance or clinical recommendations change

  • Medication dosing guidelines are updated

  • Medicaid program details, benefits, or eligibility requirements change

Some information, such as Medicaid coverage and public assistance programs, may change frequently. We encourage readers to confirm details directly with official sources when needed.
