How to pitch health journalists
Health reporters cover medicine, hospitals, pharma, public health, wellness and health policy. They want peer-reviewed evidence, credentialed experts and patients willing to tell their story.
- Link to the study or data behind every claim. Health editors will check.
- Make a qualified clinician available. Many outlets will not quote a marketer on medical topics.
- Avoid "cure" and "breakthrough" unless the evidence really supports them.
