Glossary Editorial Policy
How HealthSpeak glossary pages are selected, written, and updated for clinical English learners.
What this glossary is for
The glossary exists to explain clinical English and medical terminology in plain, usable language for learners working toward English-speaking healthcare settings.
Each page is designed as educational vocabulary content, not as a diagnostic or treatment recommendation.
How pages are chosen
HealthSpeak starts from a larger medical term dataset, then filters down to records that are clearer, more complete, and safer to publish.
Duplicate-heavy terms, records with weak definitions, and excluded categories are kept out of the first indexable batch.
How pages are updated
Pages are reviewed in batches. Stronger clusters such as cardiology, diagnosis, pulmonology, and rehabilitation are expanded first.
If a page is found to be duplicate-prone or too thin, it can be revised or removed from future indexable batches.
