## Key facts

| Fact | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Practice area | [Health & Medical Law](https://ailawframework.com/practice/health-and-medical-law.md) |
| Human involvement | Yellow: Lawyer and AI draft together |
| How AI is used | From the draft advertisement (web page, social post, video script), the product’s ARTG entry and indications, list every claim, image, testimonial and statement, and check each against the Code’s requirements and the TGA’s compliance checklist, marking where the claim goes beyond the approved indications. |
| What the lawyer must review | The lawyer decides whether the material is advertising to the public, which claims are non-compliant and how to fix them, and whether health-service advertising rules also apply. |

## Checking plan

**Source-by-source verification**

Trace relied-on content to independent sources and check for relevant material the output has missed.

- What the AI does: From the draft advertisement (web page, social post, video script), the product’s ARTG entry and indications, list every claim, image, testimonial and statement, and check each against the Code’s requirements and the TGA’s compliance checklist, marking where the claim goes beyond the approved indications.
- What the lawyer does: The lawyer decides whether the material is advertising to the public, which claims are non-compliant and how to fix them, and whether health-service advertising rules also apply.
- Who reviews: Responsible lawyer with competence in the matter
- Basis: Practical workflow informed by the linked primary sources; the traffic light and working checks are editorial guidance, not a court classification.
- Why: The level reflects what the work is, the consequence of an error, and how much of the output the lawyer must independently re-derive.

## Checks the lawyer makes

1. Check each claim against the ARTG entry for the product.
2. Review the advertisement as a whole for the overall impression, not only claim by claim.
3. Confirm whether separate rules for advertising a regulated health service also apply.

## Notes

- These are suggested working checks. Confirm the required checking with the responsible lawyer before work starts; the checking approach does not establish permission to use AI.
