How MittenLink checks listings

A listing can show two different kinds of checks. They mean different things, and one does not imply the other.

Checked against official sources

MittenLink checks basic public details — such as the organization’s name, website, phone, email and address — against an approved source, usually the organization’s own official website. A listing may say “Basic details checked against the organization’s official website” with the date we checked.

If we can’t confirm a detail from an approved source, we leave it off the listing. This check is done by MittenLink, not by the organization.

Confirmed by the organization

“Confirmed by the organization” means someone authorized to speak for the organization reviewed its listing and confirmed the information was accurate on the date shown.

Not yet confirmed by the organization

The organization hasn’t confirmed its listing yet. The basic details may still have been checked against official sources. Please contact the organization directly to confirm anything important.

Organization confirmation needs renewing

The organization confirmed its listing in the past, but that confirmation is now out of date or something has changed since. We ask organizations to confirm their listings again regularly.

What these checks do not mean

• MittenLink recommends the provider
• the provider is right for every person
• a service is guaranteed to be available
• insurance or Medicaid coverage is guaranteed
• the provider has been background checked, unless MittenLink specifically says so

Information can change

Hours, eligibility, costs and services can change. Please confirm important details directly with the provider.
