Checklist 1
Website and marketing readiness.
Covers the public-facing surfaces a reviewer examines first: home page, service pages, pricing, and any advertising creative that leads a visitor into your funnel.
- Operating entity name, physical business address and a working contact method are visible before checkout
- Service pages state who is eligible for the service and who is not, in plain language
- Outcome and result claims are qualified ('may help', 'is designed to') rather than absolute or guaranteed
- Before-and-after or testimonial content, if used, discloses that individual results vary and is not misrepresented as guaranteed outcomes
- Pricing is stated clearly, including any recurring or subscription terms, before a visitor is asked to enter payment information
- Cancellation and refund terms are linked from the same page where a purchase is made, not buried in a separate unlinked document
- Any comparison to competitors or regulatory bodies is accurate and does not imply endorsement that does not exist
- Claims of licensure, accreditation or certification status are current and link to verifiable detail
Checklist 2
Patient intake and consent readiness.
Covers the questionnaire, routing logic and consent capture a patient experiences between clicking 'start' and being approved, declined or escalated.
- Intake questions are clinically appropriate to the specific treatment being requested, not a generic template reused across services
- A disqualifying or borderline answer routes to a defined outcome — decline, escalate to a provider, or request more information — rather than silently proceeding to checkout
- Identity verification is appropriate to the risk of the treatment (higher for controlled substances, lower for general wellness products)
- Consent language is presented before treatment is finalized, not retroactively after payment
- Consent language states what the patient is agreeing to in language matched to the actual service, not a generic template
- A record is kept of which version of the intake flow and consent language a given patient actually completed
- Provider review of the intake, where required, is documented with a timestamp and identifiable reviewer
- Patients can reach a human being to ask questions about their intake or consent before proceeding
How to use these
Treat each item as a yes/no, not a spectrum.
- 1
Work the list literally
Each bullet should be answerable yes or no against your live workflow, not your intended design.
- 2
Flag every no
A 'no' does not mean you fail review; it means you know exactly what a reviewer is likely to raise first.
- 3
Fix or document
Either close the gap or document why the item does not apply to your specific scope.
- 4
Re-check after changes
Re-run the relevant checklist after any material change to your site, funnel or intake flow.
FAQ
Questions we hear often
- Are these checklists downloadable files?
- No. They are written directly on this page so they stay current without a separate file to version or lose.
- Will passing this checklist guarantee certification?
- No. Certification decisions are scope-specific and made against the full published standards; this checklist reflects the most common gaps we see, not an exhaustive scope.
- Are there more checklists planned?
- Additional workflow checklists are planned as the guide library expands; this page will state clearly when a new one is added.
