Editorial Policy
How Senior Benefits Care Finder decides what to publish, how we handle AI tools, how we disclose relationships, and how we fix things when we get them wrong.
Who Writes This
Senior Benefits Care Finder is an independent publication founded and operated by Paul Paradis. One person's name is on the work. Paul is not a licensed insurance agent, attorney, financial planner, or medical professional — he's a publisher focused on plain-English guidance. Every guide is published under his byline, and when something is wrong, the responsibility for fixing it sits with him.
Independence
Our editorial content is written independently of our advertisers and affiliate partners. No advertiser or partner gets to change what a guide says about their product, their category, or a competitor. We do not accept paid placements inside guides; ads are labeled as ads, and affiliate or sponsored links are disclosed. Government programs are never pitched as if they were commercial products — they're explained using the relevant official source. If a commercial relationship ever conflicts with what's most accurate or most helpful for the reader, the reader wins.
Expertise and How Content Gets Made
We want to be plain about how the guides are written. Primary sources come first: Medicare.gov, SSA.gov, VA.gov, state Medicaid agencies, the Genworth Cost of Care Survey, BLS data, and peer-reviewed research when it applies. We use AI tools to help organize data, draft passages, and cross-check consistency across states and topics; a human reviews every page before it's published, and the byline on every page is a human. Rules that qualify in government language get rewritten into the way real people talk about them, with links back to the primary source so readers can verify. When a question requires a licensed professional, we say so and point readers to the right resource.
Disclosure
This site is supported by display advertising and, in some places, affiliate links to third-party services. Where a link is affiliate or sponsored, we label it. We may earn a commission when readers use those links, at no extra cost to the reader. Commissions do not change the editorial content of a guide. We are not affiliated with Medicare, Medicaid, the Social Security Administration, the VA, or any state or federal agency.
Corrections
We get things wrong sometimes, and when that happens we fix them. Found an error? Email contact@seniorbenefitscarefinder.com with the page and what's off. Include a source if you have one. Verified corrections are usually made within a few business days, and material updates get a dated 'Updated' badge on the page. Program rules, income limits, and dollar figures change often — if a number looks stale, check the linked government source and please tell us so we can update it here.
