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 by name or number; specialty matches what is advertised; status current. Dr. Jorge Badilla Mora is listed in the CMC Buscador de Medicos with licence status Activo and the recognised specialty Cirugía Plástica, Reconstructiva y Estética, Cirugía General (cod. MED6988). [cmc] |
OFF | 26 | 2026-09-20 | |
| M2 | Identifiability of the responsible physician Named; role unclear. The surgeon is named throughout the site with his field stated, but the site gives only the city, not a street address, so the physician is not tied to a specific location. [site] |
SEC | 16 | 2026-09-20 | |
| M3 | Basic medical licence Matched by name. Matched by name in the CMC colegiatura register: Médico y Cirujano, cod. MED6988, status Activo. The clinic publishes no CMC code of its own, so the match is on the name. [cmc] |
OFF | 8 | 2026-09-20 | |
| M4 | Facility registration Not applicable: this country has no Facility register. |
— | — | — | 2026-09-20 |
| M5 | Legal-entity traceability Brand only. The clinic trades under a brand name only: no company name with a legal form and no cedula juridica is published on any of its pages (https://cirugiaplasticajorgebadilla.com/). The Hacienda taxpayer register answers on an identification number, so there is nothing to look up. [site] |
SEC | 8 | 2026-09-20 | |
| M6 | Self-disclosure of identifiers Logos without numbers. The site lists the professional bodies AMECPRE, ASPS, ISAPS, FILACP and the Colegio de Médicos y Cirujanos as credentials, but publishes no membership, licence or company number. [site] |
SEC | 10 | 2026-09-20 | |
| M7 | Advertising honesty Systematic superlatives without guarantees. Scan of the clinic site in Spanish (the practice is presented on one page). Superlatives recur through the copy — the quoted sentence, the heading "Cirugía Plástica de Excelencia" and "procedimientos estéticos y reconstructivos de la más alta calidad". No guarantee from the bright line is published. [site] Utilizamos técnicas avanzadas en un ambiente seguro y controlado para obtener los mejores resultados. |
SEC | 12 | 2026-09-20 | |
| 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 One. Pages loaded: https://cirugiaplasticajorgebadilla.com/ (the whole practice sits on one page). Of the five document classes only aftercare appears, in the description of the recovery stage of the treatment process; no consent form, risk disclosure, revision policy or complaint route is published.

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.
