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. BIG register: registration current, specialism 34 (Plastische chirurgie) matches the clinic's advertised specialty. [big] |
OFF | 26 | 2026-08-31 | |
| M2 | Identifiability of the responsible physician Physician(s) named with role and tied to this address. |
SEC | 16 | 2026-08-31 | |
| M3 | Basic medical licence Matched by name (surname stem and given name or initial; a second identifier where the name is ambiguous). Matched by name; the location page does not publish registration numbers. [big] |
OFF | 8 | 2026-08-31 | |
| M4 | Facility registration Record found: name, address and status match. Facility register: this branch's trade name and address match the clinic's own site among the operator's many registered branches. [lrza] |
OFF | 10 | 2026-08-31 | |
| M5 | Legal-entity traceability The clinic names the legal entity or the responsible person in its legal notice and the record is found by name; or the number the clinic publishes leads to an entity with a different name that is tied to this location by the same address or the same responsible person. The clinic publishes its legal entity and its commercial registration number in the footer of every page; the Handelsregister open dataset returns that number as an active besloten vennootschap commenced 2004-05-28, with no insolvency recorded. [v1.3 2026-09-22: the number is not printed on the clinic pages (audit not_published); the clinic names the entity — matched by name] [kvk] [lrza] |
OFF | 8 | 2026-09-22 | |
| M6 | Self-disclosure of identifiers Logos without numbers. |
SEC | 10 | 2026-08-31 | |
| M7 | Advertising honesty No pattern from the lexicon found. |
SEC | 12 | 2026-08-31 | |
| M8 | Cross-locale consistency Could not verify — no points, counts against coverage, not a negative finding. Reason: Single language front. Last attempt: clinic_site, 17 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. A group-wide complaints procedure with an external disputes commission is published; consent, risk, aftercare and revision documents specific to this location were not found. [site] |

Score ceilings
No ceiling applies. We never apply one on 'not found' alone.
Holds
No hold on this profile.
Inclusion policy
Four mechanical conditions. The first three decide whether a clinic is listed at all; the fourth decides whether it can be scored.

Who is responsible

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.
