About Health Sense

Health Sense Magazine is a news publication about medical technology: the devices, software, treatments and trials that are changing care, and the regulators, payers and companies behind them.

What we cover

• Devices: FDA clearances, approvals and launches, with the regulatory pathway stated.
• Digital Health: software, AI, remote monitoring and health data.
• Treatments & Trials: drugs, therapies and clinical trial results, with the trial phase and who reported them.
• Policy & Regulation: FDA guidance, CMS coverage, recalls, warning letters and legislation.
• Business: deals, funding, earnings and the companies in the industry.
• Explainers: how medical technology is regulated, paid for and tested.

How we report

• News, not advice. We report what happened and who said it. We don't recommend products or treatments, and nothing we publish is medical advice.
• Exact regulatory terms. "Cleared," "approved," "authorized" and "breakthrough designation" mean different things. Every story uses the term the official record supports and shows it in a status label.
• Primary sources first. We work from FDA and CMS records, company releases, court filings, trial registries and journals, and we link what we read.
• Attribution. Company claims are attributed to the company. Company-reported trial data is labelled as such. Recalls, warning letters and lawsuits are tied to the official document.
• Photos. We use company press images, U.S. government public-domain images and openly licensed images, each credited. We don't use AI-generated images or photos of identifiable patients. When a photo shows a similar device rather than the product in the story, the caption says so.

Independence and conflicts

Health Sense does not publish sponsored content. If a company we cover has a business relationship with the publisher, the story says so. Companies and their agencies can send us news, but a submission never guarantees coverage.

Corrections

When we get something wrong, we fix it and add a note to the story saying what changed. To report an error, use the contact form and choose "Correction request."
