Affiliate Disclosure

How FacilityDirectory.org uses affiliate links and advertising, what commissions mean for you, and how these relationships stay separate from provider data.

FacilityDirectory.org believes you should always know when a link may earn us money. This page explains our affiliate and advertising relationships.

The short version

Some links on this site are affiliate links. If you click one and make a purchase or sign up, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you. Affiliate relationships never change the provider data we publish or the conclusions in our guides.

What affiliate links are

An affiliate link contains a tracking identifier that tells the merchant the visit came from us. Common examples include product links to online retailers and referral links to services. The price you pay is the same whether or not you use our link.

Where disclosures appear

Editorial independence

We do not accept payment to raise, lower, or alter a provider's data or rating. CMS ratings are reproduced as published and labeled as CMS data. Affiliate revenue, where it exists, supports the cost of running the site and does not determine which providers or resources we cover.

Advertising

If third-party advertising is displayed, it is served separately from our editorial content. Advertisers do not review or approve our data pages or guides. Advertising may use cookies or identifiers as described in our privacy policy.

Questions

If anything about a link or relationship is unclear, contact us through the contact page and we will clarify. This disclosure is provided in the spirit of the U.S. Federal Trade Commission's guidance on endorsements and disclosures.

FacilityDirectory.org is an independent informational directory. Not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by CMS or any government agency. Informational only, not medical advice.
