Crossmark is an initiative developed by Crossref to provide a standardized mechanism for readers to identify the current and authoritative version of a scholarly document. The Healer Journal of Biomedical and Health Sciences (HJBHS) participates in the Crossmark program to demonstrate its commitment to the integrity, transparency, and reliability of the scholarly record.

HJBHS maintains the Crossmark icon on all published articles and is committed to keeping the published content up to date. The Crossmark logo appears on both the PDF and HTML versions of articles. By clicking the Crossmark icon, readers can verify whether the document is current and access information about any updates, corrections, retractions, or other post-publication changes related to the article.

The journal recognizes the importance of preserving trust in the academic record and places the highest priority on ensuring the accuracy, completeness, and permanence of its published content. Any significant changes to an article after publication will be clearly communicated through Crossmark to ensure transparency for readers, authors, and indexing services.

For detailed information regarding the journal’s procedures on post-publication updates, readers are advised to consult the Corrigendum, Addendum & Retraction Policy available in journal policies.
