Medical disclaimer

Last updated 4 November 2026

MCC Vault is an exam preparation resource for the MCCQE, the Medical Council of Canada's qualifying examination. It is not clinical advice and must not be used to make decisions about patient care. Content is written to current Canadian guidelines and to the Medical Council of Canada's published Examination Objectives, checked as of November 2026, and is updated as guidance changes. If you spot an error, please report it. MCC Vault is a product of Ailopin Digital and is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Medical Council of Canada.

What this means in practice

• It teaches for the exam. Lessons, cards and questions are written to help you answer MCCQE questions the way Canadian guidelines would. They are summaries, so they leave out detail a real patient may need.
• Check before you treat. Guidelines change, and practice differs between provinces and territories, hospitals and patients. Before treating anyone, check the current guideline, the product monograph and local policy.
• Doses are for learning. Drug doses, thresholds and schedules are given to help you answer exam questions. Confirm them in the Canadian product monograph, a current Canadian drug reference or your local formulary before you prescribe.
• Law and policy are summarized. Consent, reporting duties and health system rules are set by each province and territory and change over time. MCC Vault teaches the principles the exam tests; it is not legal advice.
• AI-written explanations are labelled. They are written from MCC Vault's own lessons and can still contain mistakes. The lessons and the guidelines behind them come first.
• Images are drawn for teaching. ECGs, traces and charts in MCC Vault are drawn by the app to show the features that matter in an exam question. They are simplified and are not real patient records.

Found a mistake?

Every lesson, card and question has a Report an issue link, or you can email [email protected]. We review every report, and a fix reaches everyone at once.
