Reference and data-checking service FAQs
Referencing is the practice of citing sources to support statements, claims or findings in medical writing.
Reference and data checking ensure the accuracy, credibility and compliance of medical writing. These processes consist of verifying cited references as relevant, up-to-date and evidence-based sources and cross-checking data against original sources.
Elion can indeed perform data and reference checks on AI-generated medical writing content. This process involves thorough checking and validation of all evidence included in AI-generated medical content. That said, it’s important to note that the time frame required for this process may not necessarily be shorter than creating the content from scratch.
We reference and data check manuscripts and scientific publications (submissions for peer-reviewed journals, case reports, systematic reviews), conference materials (abstracts, posters, slide decks), educational materials for healthcare professionals, patient education materials (brochures, booklets, videos), journal supplements and clinical summaries, white papers, promotional content (core claims documents, brochures, factsheets, sales aids), website content and social media, infographics and clinical visual aids, and podcasts and video content.
