Review Methodology
InsuranceGuide uses a named editorial review owner even when the page itself is generated through a structured pipeline. Our current review owner is the InsuranceGuide Editorial Review Team, which is responsible for manual-review priorities, sourcing standards, and correction follow-up.
What The Review Team Checks
- Source quality. We look for regulator, government, or category-specific sources that are stronger than generic baseline references.
- Claim-risk language. We soften or remove unsupported percentages, price claims, filing language, and state-rule statements when they are too broad or insufficiently sourced.
- Reader usefulness. We prefer pages that help a reader compare options and verify details in their state over pages that only repeat generic insurance talking points.
- Ongoing freshness. Higher-risk pages can move into a manual-review queue even after they are published if sourcing, structure, or claim-risk signals suggest they need another pass.
How The Workflow Works
We keep the source of truth in SQLite, not just markdown. Generation, source upgrades, retrofits, and manual refreshes are all routed through that DB-first workflow so improvements can be tracked and repeated consistently.
Pages with higher claim risk or weaker sourcing can be placed into a DB-backed manual-review queue. That queue is ranked by a mix of claim risk, source quality, content quality score, and commercial or search-priority signals.
What A Manual Review Date Means
A review date means the page was revisited intentionally through the editorial workflow. It does not mean every carrier rule, quote, or filing detail is guaranteed current in real time, and readers should still verify those details before acting.
What We Ask Readers To Do
Use our guides to understand the tradeoffs, then verify the details that matter most to your state and situation with the insurer and the relevant regulator. That is especially important for pricing, filing requirements, network participation, eligibility timelines, and endorsement details.
