Paige Review for PAAB: The Coverage Tab

A list of findings tells you what Paige found. It doesn’t tell you what Paige looked for. The Coverage tab answers that for every provision of the PAAB Code: whether Paige checked it, found it doesn’t apply to this piece, or couldn’t check it and left it for a person.

Use it before you submit, to make sure nothing was left unchecked.

This is part of Paige Review for PAAB: The Complete Guide.

Opening the Coverage tab

Open Paige Review and click Coverage. The top says how many provisions were checked, for example 84 of 119 provisions checked, with What Paige did with each provision of the PAAB Code on this review.

Filters show each status with its count. All shows every provision.

The provisions are grouped by the sections of the Code: Administrative guidelines, General requirements, Claims, quotes and references, Presentation of data, Making comparisons, Patient information, and Disclosure and product information. Click a section to see its provisions. Each one shows its number, its title, what Paige did and why.

What each status means

• Checked: Paige checked the provision. It either found nothing or raised findings, and the count of findings is shown. Some provisions are checked together with a related one, and say so, for example checked with 2.6.
• Not applicable: the provision doesn’t apply to this piece, with the reason, for example applies to audience hcp; this piece is patient. Provisions that apply only in some cases say Only if with the condition.
• Needs a person: Paige couldn’t check it on this piece and a person must. Either the check needs something Paige doesn’t have, or the provision is about something no one can see in the piece, such as how it will be distributed. The reason says which.
• Not yet supported: Paige doesn’t check this provision yet. A person must.
• Failed: the check ran into an error. Re-run the review.
• Pending: the review is still running, or the check was added to Paige after this review. Re-run to check it.
