Axis by axis
rubric value 1–5 · ? could not verify (no points, not a negative finding) · — not applicable: this country has no register of that class · OFF official register · SEC secondary source
| Axis | Finding (rubric anchor) | Value | Source class | Weight | Checked |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| M1 | Specialist certification of the responsible physician Found, status current; the registered specialty matches what this physician advertises. NMC register: the number-matched record of the responsible physician carries the Speciality cell "Dermatology", matching the advertised hair and skin service. [nmc-pradhan] |
OFF | 26 | 2026-09-20 | |
| M2 | Identifiability of the responsible physician Physician(s) named with role and tied to this address. The responsible physician is named with role, qualification and NMC number on the home page and the team page. [site] |
SEC | 16 | 2026-09-20 | |
| M3 | Basic medical licence Matched by name (surname stem and given name or initial; a second identifier where the name is ambiguous). Site-published NMC number 9410 matched by number in the Nepal Medical Council register. [v1.3 2026-09-22: the number is not printed on the clinic's own pages (audit short_number) — matched by name] [nmc-pradhan] |
OFF | 8 | 2026-09-22 | |
| M4 | Facility registration Found with a spelling discrepancy; or the location is registered under the name of the host facility at the same address (a practice inside a hospital or a centre); or the value comes from a mirror or from a directory that shows no status — the profile names the record holder verbatim. Facility registry: record found for this operator in Kathmandu (hf_code 3060808472), Non-Government / Private Enterprise; the registered facility name carries additional and misspelled words relative to the trading name. [nhfr] |
OFF | 10 | 2026-09-20 | |
| M5 | Legal-entity traceability The legal entity is named; the register of this class is not accessible or does not cover this legal form (sole practitioner, private practice). The clinic names its operating entity with a legal form in its own page furniture; the company register is not machine-accessible (v1.2 closed-register anchor). [site-about] Arogin Health Care (P) Ltd is the first clinic for hair transplant in Kathmandu, Nepal. |
SEC | 8 | 2026-09-20 | |
| M6 | Self-disclosure of identifiers Physician numbers published; facility or legal-entity numbers not. Physician NMC numbers are published with the issuer named; no facility or company registration number is published. [site] |
SEC | 10 | 2026-09-20 | |
| M7 | Advertising honesty No pattern from the lexicon found. Bright-line outcome statement about the advertised technique in the clinic own text, no issuer. [v1.3 lexicon re-read 2026-09-22: purpose_clause → 5; M7-E (designed to guarantee)] [site-about] an innovative method designed to guarantee graft survival and create results that appear completely natural |
SEC | 12 | 2026-09-22 | |
| M8 | Cross-locale consistency Could not verify — no points, counts against coverage, not a negative finding. Reason: Single language front. Last attempt: clinic_site, 20 September 2026 — one language front; no hreflang alternates or language links The clinic site publishes one language front; nothing to compare. |
? | ? | 5 | 2026-09-20 |
| M9 | Patient documents Two or three. Completed presence scan of the clinic pages: side-effect and aftercare guides are published on the clinic own blog; no consent document, revision policy or complaint route found. [site] |

Inclusion policy
Four mechanical conditions. The first three decide whether a clinic is listed at all; the fourth decides whether it can be scored.

What we could not verify
- M8 · Cross-locale consistency — Single language front
These cells score nothing and are not negative findings. A cell on a register that is closed to machine queries is left out of the coverage calculation; the others count against it. Each one names why it is empty; an attempt that did not complete is re-run in the next collection pass. If you can point to a public source, send it.
