What this checker covers

This checklist maps common English-language patterns and your answers to the content clauses listed below. It cannot assess context, verify factual claims, inspect images or determine legal compliance. Clauses about penalties and appeals (10 to 12) are not content rules, so they are not checked.

Questions doctors ask

Which rules does this checker use?

The NMC Ethics and Medical Registration Board public notice No. R-13014/01/2024-Ethics dated 6 October 2026, "Guidelines on Ethical Advertising and Public Communication by hospitals/medical institutions and Registered Medical Practitioners". Each flag shows the clause it comes from.

Is my text stored anywhere?

No. The check runs inside your browser. Nothing is uploaded, saved or shared. Only if you press "Ask us to review it" does your WhatsApp open with a short message, and you decide whether to send it.

Can a doctor post educational reels at all?

Yes. Clause 5.1 allows health awareness and educational content that does not promote personal practice, does not solicit patients and is not monetised through promotional marketing. Show your name, qualification, registration status and register number on the post (clause 3.2, Explanation III).

Do the rules apply to government health campaigns?

No. The explanation under clause 7.3 says campaigns on Government of India and state government programmes in the larger public interest are exempt.

What if my post passes with no flags?

That means none of the common risky patterns were found. It is not an approval. Context matters: the same sentence can be education in one post and promotion in another.
