Corrections

We get things wrong sometimes. When we do, we fix them in the open.

Our policy

• We correct promptly. When we confirm an error, we fix the story and add a note at the top saying what was wrong, what is right and when we changed it.
• A person approves every correction. Corrections are never made automatically; software may flag a possible error, but a person decides.
• No quiet rewrites. We only edit without a note for typos and formatting that don't change the meaning.
• Every correction is logged in the table below, with a link to the story.
• Fact-check ratings. On The Whole Read, if a fact-check rating changes, we show the old rating, the new rating, the new evidence and the date.
• Sensitive corrections that involve a named person, legal matters, health information or a company Monsaur Othman owns are reviewed by Monsaur before they go up.

How to report an error

Tell us the story, what you think is wrong and, if you can, a source. Every report is reviewed and corrections are logged publicly. Send reports to the email address on our contact page. You can also use our contact page.

Per-site notes

• **Home Health Brief.If CMS or a Medicare contractor revises a document we wrote about, we update the story and note the revision.
