About the desk
Who writes here, how entries are researched, and how corrections work.
What this is
A reference desk: dated lists and field guides, written so a reader can check the facts themselves. Entries are shorter than essays and longer than a bare directory listing.
How entries are researched
Every entry names its sources in a closing section: provider documentation, hospital directories, insurer panel documents, public pricing pages. Where a number is an estimate, the text says so.
How often entries change
Hospital scope, cloud pricing and compliance requirements move. Entries carry a publish date and are revised when the underlying source changes, not on a fixed schedule.
Corrections
If an entry is wrong, the correction is applied to the entry and noted in the revision date. There is no separate errata page.
