EDITORIAL REVIEW

Our reviewers

Fonteum publishes source-linked research and data pages over US federal healthcare datasets. Before a healthcare-facing page ships, a non-practicing medical reviewer reads it for one thing: that the terminology, the limitations language, and the way each federal source is described are accurate. The pages are data-led and informational — they report what a dataset says and where it came from, not clinical guidance.


MEDICAL REVIEW

Dr. Jennifer Montecillo, MD

Non-practicing medical reviewer · Gullas College of Medicine, 2019

Dr. Jennifer Montecillo earned her medical degree from Gullas College of Medicine in 2019. She is a non-practicing medical reviewer: she does not see patients, diagnose, treat, or give clinical advice, and nothing on Fonteum is a substitute for a clinician. Her role is editorial. She reviews how Fonteum describes the federal datasets behind a page — making sure a CMS measure is named the way CMS names it, that a limitation is stated plainly, and that nothing reads as a claim the source does not support.

Her review scope is the language layer, not the data pipeline: source interpretation, clinical and regulatory terminology, and the limitations blocks that tell a reader what a number can and cannot be used for. Available provenance fields — source, observation date, and methodology version — are populated separately by the data pipeline. Snapshot-attestation coverage is distinct.


THE SIGNOFF

REVIEW CADENCE

Every reviewed page carries a last-reviewed date and a next-review date. The standing cadence is a re-review every six months, and a page is re-read out of cycle whenever the federal dataset behind it publishes a new release or its limitations language changes. The review covers wording and source description; it is not an audit of the underlying CMS, OIG, HRSA, or HHS data, which remains a US Government Work published by those agencies.

Integrated, with-data, and fresh-observation counts are separate. No platform-wide source-completeness count is published. Completeness is source-specific and must be evaluated against the named source's expected scope. State coverage is a separate jurisdiction measure.

Source authority is record-specific

Use the issuer named on the record.

Fonteum spans federal, state, and global public publishers. A source page or returned record identifies its issuer and dataset where that metadata is available. A platform registry count does not assign every page to one authority or establish loaded, fresh, or complete coverage.

Reproducible by design

Inspect the evidence each published figure actually supplies.

Source and date

Research pages expose the named public file and observation date where those fields are available. Source-file SHA-256 coverage is separate; facts do not currently link deterministically to signatures.

Available derivation

Studies with a retained release and committed derivation link the SQL or method used. Other studies state the evidence and reproduction limits they actually have.

Daily observations

Dated table row-count observations can detect local drift. They do not imply that an upstream publisher released or Fonteum ingested new data that day.
