Revenue we accept
- Medicare Advantage and Medigap broker referrals. When a reader connects with a licensed Medicare broker through our pages and ultimately enrolls in a plan, the broker may pay us a flat referral fee. We disclose this on every Medicare-related page.
- Elder-law attorney lead-gen.When a reader requests a consultation with an elder-law attorney we’ve vetted, the attorney pays a per-lead fee. Disclosed on every legal-services page.
- Product affiliate — medical alert devices, OTC hearing aids, mobility equipment. Standard affiliate-marketing commissions on retail purchases. Disclosed on every product-review page.
Revenue we refuse
- Facility placement fees.We do not refer readers to specific assisted-living, memory-care, or nursing-home facilities for compensation. This is the business model used by A Place for Mom and several competitors. We don’t do it because the financial incentives are structurally misaligned with the reader’s interest.
- Sponsored content in editorial.There is no “Brought to you by” content on the site. If a piece reads like editorial, it is editorial.
- Compensation to reviewers tied to revenue from pages they review. Reviewers are paid a flat per-page fee. They never get a cut of downstream affiliate revenue from the page they signed off on.
How we disclose
When a page contains affiliate links, you’ll see a disclosure block at the top of the page — not in the legal footer. The block names which links earn us commission and links here.
Editorial independence
Advertisers and affiliate partners do not see content before publication. They do not have copy approval. When we change a recommendation, it’s because the evidence changed, not because a partnership did.
For our full editorial process, see our methodology page.
Questions or concerns
If you see something on a page that looks like an undisclosed affiliate relationship, or you think a recommendation is biased by our economics, please tell us. We’ll investigate within 5 business days and update the page if needed.
