How to read this

Different platforms measure different things: Trustpilot shows a company-invited review average, BBB grades how a business answers complaints, app stores prompt at the moment of use, and a regulator's letter is a dated record. A paid PR-wire release is not a review. None of these is a score from Telehealth Ledger. How Trustpilot counts · How BBB counts

Questions are recorded in generic phrasing from public question sites, forum titles, and the sub-questions of top-ranked pages, each linked with its check date. Complaint themes are platform categories, not verified events. Nothing here is medical advice or a Telehealth Ledger score.
