Editorial policy
Short answer: Opsam.wiki covers a health care provider, so it follows stricter rules: facts come from cited public sources, conflicts between sources are shown rather than resolved silently, nothing is invented, and no medical advice is given.
Which sources are used?
- Federal status, patient data and grants come from HRSA and USAspending.gov.
- State licensing comes from the California Department of Public Health facility listing.
- Finances and governance come from IRS Form 990 data via ProPublica Nonprofit Explorer.
- Services, insurance, hours and policies come from Operation Samahan’s own website and are attributed as its description.
- Press coverage is used for history, with disagreements noted.
What are the writing rules?
- No service, insurance plan, provider, hour, date or figure is included unless a cited source states it.
- When sources disagree, all versions are shown with their sources.
- Individual clinicians are not named, and no medical advice is given.
- Promotional claims are quoted and attributed, not adopted. Claims that cannot be checked against an independent record are marked as unverified.
- Gaps are listed openly on the about page.
How is the conflict of interest handled?
The site is produced by a marketing agency that works for Operation Samahan. To limit the effect of that relationship, it follows the rules above, links to public records readers can check themselves, and reports discrepancies whether or not they are favorable. The relationship is disclosed on every page.
How are corrections made?
Reported errors are checked against sources and corrected promptly. Substantive changes are recorded on the changelog. Each page shows when it was published and last updated.
Who is responsible?
The Opsam Wiki editorial team. For questions about care, contact Operation Samahan through its official website or at (844) 200-2426.
