Editorial Policy

Effective August 25, 2026

1. Introduction

Dastify Solutions publishes educational content about medical billing, medical coding, revenue cycle management, credentialing, payer requirements, healthcare compliance and related administrative topics.

Our goal is to provide clear and practical information that helps U.S. healthcare providers understand complex revenue cycle issues. Accuracy, transparency and usefulness guide our editorial process.

This policy explains who creates our content, how we research and review it, how we use technology, and how we handle updates and corrections.

2. Our Editorial Purpose

We create content for healthcare providers, practice managers, billing teams, coders, compliance professionals and healthcare administrators.

Our content is intended to help readers:

  • Understand medical billing and coding requirements
  • Follow changes from CMS, HHS, commercial payers and state programs
  • Identify preventable claim errors and denials
  • Improve documentation and revenue cycle workflows
  • Evaluate billing, credentialing, and compliance decisions
  • Ask better questions when working with payers or service partners

We do not publish content solely to attract search traffic. Every article should address a real operational, financial, or compliance question faced by healthcare organizations.

3. Who Creates Our Content

Dastify Solutions content is developed by writers working with professionals who have experience in medical billing, coding, revenue cycle operations, payer processes and healthcare compliance.

Each substantive article should identify:

  • The author
  • The author’s position or area of expertise
  • The original publication date
  • The latest review or update date
  • The technical or compliance reviewer, when applicable

Our current subject matter contributors and reviewers may include members of our operations, compliance and medical coding leadership teams.

The reviewer assigned to an article depends on its subject. Medical coding articles should receive coding-focused review. HIPAA and regulatory articles should receive compliance review. Operational RCM content should be checked by a professional with relevant revenue cycle experience.

An author or reviewer’s inclusion does not mean that the individual personally provides medical or legal advice. Their role is to evaluate the article within their stated professional area.

4. How We Select Topics

We select topics based on questions and problems encountered by healthcare practices and revenue cycle teams.

These may include:

  • Coding and documentation challenges
  • Claim submission errors
  • Payer denials and appeals
  • Prior authorization requirements
  • Accounts receivable follow-up
  • Credentialing and enrollment
  • Payment posting and reconciliation
  • Healthcare privacy and compliance
  • Changes to Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial payer policies
  • New technology affecting healthcare administration

Search data may help us understand how providers describe a problem. It does not replace professional judgment or determine the conclusions presented in an article.

5. Our Research Standards

We prioritize original and authoritative sources.

Depending on the topic, our research may include information from:

  • Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services
  • U.S. Department of Health and Human Services
  • HHS Office for Civil Rights
  • Office of Inspector General
  • Federal Register
  • Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
  • National Center for Health Statistics
  • State Medicaid agencies
  • Medicare Administrative Contractors
  • Official commercial payer manuals and medical policies
  • American Medical Association resources
  • Recognized coding and healthcare professional organizations
  • Peer-reviewed research and established healthcare publications

When a rule comes from a specific payer, state, program, or contract, we identify that limitation. We do not present a payer-specific policy as a universal billing rule.

Secondary sources may be used for background or industry context. They should not replace available primary documentation when the article discusses a regulatory requirement, coding change, reimbursement rule, or compliance obligation.

Technical articles should include links or references to the principal sources used. Readers should be able to trace important factual statements to an identifiable authority whenever practical.

6. Writing and Review Process

Our standard editorial workflow includes the following steps:

  1. Topic assessment: We define the reader, the problem being addressed and the practical purpose of the article.
  2. Source research: The writer gathers current information from relevant primary and secondary sources. Time-sensitive sources are checked for their effective date and applicable jurisdiction or payer.
  3. Drafting: The article is written in clear U.S. English. Technical terminology is explained where needed. Content should distinguish confirmed requirements from recommendations, observations, and professional opinions.
  4. Factual verification: Important statements involving regulations, coding, reimbursement, deadlines, penalties, statistics, or payer requirements are checked against their original sources.
  5. Technical review: Articles involving coding, compliance, billing operations, or payer policy are reviewed by a team member with relevant subject knowledge whenever the topic requires it.
  6. Editorial review: We check the article for clarity, organization, accuracy, unsupported claims, misleading language, and unnecessary repetition.
  7. Publication: Published articles display an author and publication date. Reviewed or updated articles should also identify the reviewer and last updated date.

A reviewer’s name should only appear when that person has meaningfully reviewed the article.

7. Medical Coding Content

Medical coding requirements change over time. They may also vary by payer, service, setting, provider type, and patient coverage.

When discussing CPT, HCPCS, ICD-10-CM, modifiers, bundling, medical necessity, or reimbursement, we aim to:

  • Identify the applicable code set and year
  • Distinguish coding guidance from payer coverage rules
  • Explain that code selection depends on documentation
  • Link to official guidance when available
  • Avoid guaranteeing coverage or reimbursement
  • Note when readers should verify a rule with the applicable payer

CPT is a registered trademark of the American Medical Association. References to CPT codes do not replace access to the current official CPT code set and guidance.

8. Statistics, Results and Internal Data

We do not present estimates, examples, or projections as guaranteed outcomes.

When we publish internal performance data, case-study results, or client outcomes, we aim to explain:

  • Where the data came from
  • The period covered
  • The population or sample represented
  • The metric used
  • Important limitations
  • Whether details have been anonymized

Client information is removed or de-identified unless the client has authorized its publication. Protected health information is not published in marketing or educational content.

Results differ based on specialty, payer mix, claim volume, documentation quality, fee schedules, patient responsibility, existing A/R and other practice-specific factors.

9. Artificial Intelligence and Automation

Dastify Solutions may use AI-assisted tools to support research organization, outlines, drafting, editing, summarization or quality checks.

AI output is not treated as an authoritative source. It does not replace human subject matter review.

When AI tools assist with content:

  • A human remains responsible for the final article
  • Factual claims must be checked against reliable sources
  • Coding and compliance information requires appropriate human review
  • Fabricated citations, statistics, credentials, or examples are prohibited
  • Confidential client data and protected health information must not be entered into unapproved public AI systems
  • The final content must provide useful analysis rather than repeat generic AI-generated information

We disclose the use of automation when it materially affects how readers should understand or evaluate the content.

10. Updates and Ongoing Review

Healthcare billing information can change because of new regulations, annual code-set updates, payer revisions, court decisions, or agency guidance.

Time-sensitive content is reviewed when we become aware of a material change. Coding, compliance, and reimbursement guides should also be scheduled for periodic review.

A new “last updated” date is added only when an article receives a meaningful factual or editorial review. We do not change dates merely to make older content appear current.

An update may include:

  • New regulatory or payer guidance
  • Annual coding changes
  • Replacement of outdated links or references
  • Corrections to inaccurate information
  • Additional examples or operational guidance
  • Clarification of a statement that could be misunderstood

Content that can no longer be maintained accurately may be revised, consolidated, redirected, archived, or removed.

11. Corrections Policy

We welcome reports of possible errors.

When a potential error is reported, we review the statement against the relevant source. If a material error is confirmed, we correct it as soon as reasonably practical.

Substantive corrections may include a correction note or updated date. Minor spelling, grammar, formatting and readability changes may be made without a correction notice.

To report an error, email digital@dastifysolutions.com with:

  • The article URL
  • The statement in question
  • A brief explanation
  • A supporting source, if available

12. Commercial Transparency

Dastify Solutions provides medical billing, coding, credentialing, compliance support and revenue cycle management services. Some educational pages may link to our services or invite readers to contact us.

This commercial relationship does not change our obligation to present information accurately.

We do not guarantee that using Dastify Solutions or following an article will produce a specific reimbursement, denial rate, collection rate or financial result.

Sponsored content, paid partnerships, or affiliate relationships will be clearly disclosed when applicable. We do not accept payment in exchange for changing a factual conclusion or disguising advertising as independent editorial guidance.

13. Comparisons and Recommendations

When comparing companies, platforms, billing models, or operational approaches, we aim to explain the criteria used.

Comparisons should:

  • Use verifiable information
  • Identify the date of the comparison
  • Separate factual findings from opinion
  • Disclose Dastify Solutions’ commercial interest
  • Avoid unsupported claims about competitors
  • Avoid declaring one option best for every organization

Readers should evaluate their own practice size, specialty, payer mix, technology, staffing needs, and contract terms before making a decision.

14. Educational Information and Professional Advice

Content published by Dastify Solutions is provided for general educational purposes.

It is not medical, clinical, legal, tax or financial advice. It does not create a professional-client relationship. It should not replace official code books, payer contracts, legal counsel, compliance professionals, or guidance from government agencies.

Coverage and reimbursement decisions are made by individual payers based on the patient’s plan, provider contract, documentation, medical necessity, applicable policy, and other circumstances.

Readers should verify requirements with the applicable payer or qualified professional before making a billing, coding, compliance, or business decision.

15. Feedback and Contact

We value feedback from healthcare providers, billers, coders, compliance professionals and other readers.
