Editorial Policy
At eViRis Health, we aim to provide content that is credible, authoritative, and crisp. Our goal is to make quality healthcare accessible and understandable — and medically correct information can be a tool for disease prevention and help readers make healthy choices. To get there, we maintain strict standards to ensure you get well-researched, evidence-based healthcare information.

1. Our promise
Our team of doctors, medical experts, pharmacists, and editors curates and reviews all of our evidence-based content. We strive to ensure that the healthcare and medical content at eViRis meets high quality standards and serves your needs — whether you're reading about a medicine, a lab test, a health condition, or caring for a family member at home.
Our content supports, and never replaces, the doctor-patient relationship. It is educational, not a prescription.
2. Editorial workflow
We follow an 8-stage review and editorial process for all our content creation — from the first idea to regular updates after publication.
-
1
Planning & topic selection
We begin by identifying unfulfilled needs or gaps in available health information. Our team conducts thorough research — reviewing recent studies, medical guidelines, textbooks, and authoritative sources (WHO, CDC, ICMR, MoHFW) — to collate a list of credible references. Topics are validated by our clinical specialists before work begins.

Content structure
Each content category (medicine information, health-condition article, lab test guide, care education) follows a well-defined structure to ensure consistency. We define key elements — subheadings, infographics, FAQs, and expert notes — to enhance readability and engagement. The overall flow is planned so the information is easy to understand.
-
3
Content curation
Our team curates content from original research articles in medical journals, review articles, meta-analyses, practice guidelines, systematic reviews, summary of product characteristics (SmPC), consensus statements, and standard textbooks. We use only sources that are peer-reviewed or issued by recognised regulatory and public-health bodies.

Content creation
Our expert team of healthcare editors, doctors, and pharmacists collaborates to create authentic content. We maintain a professional tone while being empathetic and approachable, and ensure the content is supportive and reassuring. We strictly adhere to the Drugs and Magic Remedies (Objectionable Advertisements) Act, 1954 and other regulatory guidelines.

Citation & referencing
We follow the principle of 'cite while you write'. Every fact, statistic, or scientific claim is supported by an appropriate and standard reference. A detailed list of references is included at the end of each article so readers can verify the accuracy of the information themselves.
-

Medical & editorial review
After creation, the content goes through a review cycle. Our clinical specialists verify medical accuracy and reliability, and our editors review for language consistency, grammar, and adherence to our style guide. We use plagiarism detection tools to ensure the content is original and free from unintentional duplication.

Readability assessment
The information is written in an easy-to-understand manner while preserving its scientific credibility. User testing is conducted to confirm our content is easy to consume, and language is adjusted based on the audience for each category.

Feedback & regular updates
We actively consider user feedback and article comments to improve content quality. Our team periodically reviews published content to keep it in sync with the latest research, safety information on medicines, and clinical guideline updates. We also incorporate the latest pharmacovigilance advisories from the PvPI and CDSCO.
