Governance and compliance
Armage builds the systems that move medical products and the systems that find medical expertise. The two never touch.
Patient-facing pages
No industry funding
Clinician payments
None, ever, through us
Declarations
Dated and revocable
Health information
Not collected by design
01
Supply work and expertise surfaces never touch
A page that helps a family find the right clinician works only while it is believed. Industry money on it ends the belief and, in the United States, the legal footing: the Anti-Kickback Statute, the Sunshine Act and the AdvaMed Code sit on that seam.
- Expertise surfaces
- Funded by the clinical side only. No sponsor, no product mention, for any amount.
- Supply-side work
- A separate product, a separate payer; never sold as a way to route patients.
- Clinician payments
- None flow through Armage, for appearing, declaring or participating.
- Language
- Descriptive, never preferential. Who performs a technique is data; a preference is not published.
2 more rules: counsel and breaking point
- Counsel
- Reviews the structure before the first industry engagement of this kind.
- Breaking point
- A product that threatens the seam is dropped, not modified.
Nothing on this page is legal advice. Your compliance officer is welcome to read the architecture rather than a summary of it.
02
A declaration is a fact, not an endorsement
| Property | Status |
|---|---|
| Declared by the clinicianTechniques, languages, instrument classes; never inferred | Always |
| DatedWhen it was true | Always |
| RevocableOn the clinician’s instruction | Always |
| Rendered as a recommendation“Uses” is a fact; “recommends” is not published | Never |
03
A likeness is rendered only with a consent record
A licensed likeness and voice, so a clinician’s teaching material can scale. The product is the governance: a consent record, a license with scope and term, a record of every rendered asset, revocation that takes it down.
Questions
What a compliance officer asks first
Does Armage handle patient health information?
No. Armage systems are built so that protected health information never enters them. A problem that needs it is a different architecture, a Business Associate Agreement and a different price.
