PROFESSIONAL VERIFICATION POLICY
1. What a badge means
A DrKTMed verified indication means that the named professional or practice passed the specified document or registration checks recorded by DrKTMed at a stated date. It does not promise treatment results, eliminate the need for current registration checks or establish fitness for a particular engagement.
2. Evidence that may be checked
Checks can include a relevant professional council registration, category, professional identity, claimed qualifications, applicable authority to perform services and supporting practice information. The exact items completed for a particular applicant must be recorded. Claimed information must remain distinct from independently checked facts.
3. Pending and expired information
New applicants remain pending until approval. Missing, expired, conflicting or restricted evidence may delay publication or require follow-up. A previously verified profile can be re-reviewed, limited or hidden where the evidence is no longer current. Neither publication nor expiry changes existing signed clinical records.
4. Re-verification and updates
Applicants must report material credential changes; DrKTMed may request refreshed evidence at renewal or when there is a credible concern. A last-verified date is shown only where recorded and supported. DrKTMed does not guarantee continuous external-registry monitoring.
5. Corrections and appeals
An applicant may ask for a factual correction or review through Support & Contact and provide supporting evidence. A reviewer with appropriate permissions records the decision and reason. Access to submitted identity or credential documents remains restricted to authorised personnel.
6. Clinical care and representation
Directory, virtual-practice and consultancy permissions are distinct. Verification of professional identity is not a grant of employment, a guarantee of placement or a substitute for consent and clinical professional responsibility.
