ICG's medical content writing covers the full spectrum: patient-facing healthcare blogs, doctor-authored educational content, scientific manuscripts, PSUR/DSUR writing, hospital website content, and pharma brand materials. Built by
IIT BHU pharmaceutical engineers who understand the science before they write it — and by marketers who understand what that content needs to do once published.
Why medical content writing requires a specialist
Healthcare content operates in the most regulated content environment in India. Three regulatory frameworks govern what can and cannot be said, by whom, and in what format.
NMC Section 6 (for content produced by or for registered medical practitioners): No outcome guarantees. No before-and-after of identifiable patients. No superlative claims without specific substantiation. The 2026 NMC revision explicitly includes digital content within Section 6's scope.
Schedule J (for content referencing the 54 listed conditions): Drug advertising to the public is prohibited for cancer, diabetes, heart disease, blood pressure, sterility, mental illness, alopecia, STDs, and 46 other conditions. Service framing is the compliant alternative.
FSSAI and AYUSH standards (for D2C health brands): Claims about food products, supplements, and health devices are FSSAI-regulated. AYUSH guidelines govern ayurveda, homeopathy, naturopathy products.
A generalist agency that writes healthcare content without understanding these frameworks produces content that may be engaging and SEO-optimised — and simultaneously NMC-non-compliant or FSSAI-problematic. ICG has run content programmes for 150+ healthcare and pharma clients since 2018 with zero formal complaints across all three frameworks.
The IIT BHU differentiator
ICG's founding team and pharma practice lead (Aditi Tripathi, M.Pharm IIT BHU) are pharmaceutical engineers — people who have studied drug metabolism, clinical pharmacology, formulation science, and regulatory toxicology before they ever wrote a blog post. When ICG writes about GLP-1 receptor agonists in T2DM, the writer understands the mechanism before the brief. When ICG writes a PSUR signal evaluation, the writer understands ICH E2C(R2) compliance from their pharmaceutical engineering curriculum.
The five types of medical content ICG produces
Healthcare SEO content (patient-facing blogs, FAQ pages, condition explainers, procedure guides, cost-transparency content). Named-author, FAQPage-structured, E-E-A-T-optimised.
Scientific writing and publications (original manuscripts, systematic reviews, congress abstracts). CONSORT/PRISMA/STROBE compliance, four-layer QC, Pharos Scribe governance.
Regulatory and pharma writing (PSUR, DSUR, PBRER periodic safety reports; clinical study reports; medical affairs documents). Managed by Aditi Tripathi's pharma practice.
Patient education content (informed consent, pre-procedure preparation, post-treatment care, chronic disease management). Accessible language at clinical accuracy.
Hospital and healthcare brand content (specialty department pages, physician profiles, annual reports, service brochures, CSR reports). Brand voice + regulatory context.
SEO + AEO + compliance — the ICG stack
SEO layer: keyword research using GSC, Ahrefs, ICG's proprietary specialty datasets. Every article targets a query cluster. Internal linking to hub pages and conversion paths.
AEO layer: FAQPage schema on every article. Named-author Person schema (verifiable credentials via sameAs). Original data anchors for LLM citation. Q&A formatting that extracts cleanly to AI Overview.
Compliance layer: NMC Section 6 check, Schedule J check (if topic involves listed condition), FSSAI/AYUSH check (if brand is D2C). Every article signed off before publication.
