What to Look For

Answer engine optimization (AEO) and generative engine optimization (GEO) are new labels for work that mostly builds on solid search fundamentals. Look for agencies that are candid about that.

  • Search fundamentals first: Google says there are no extra requirements or special optimizations for AI Overviews or AI Mode beyond being indexed and eligible for a snippet. A credible agency starts with crawlability, content quality and listings.
  • Crawler access checks: A review of robots.txt and firewall rules. OpenAI says OAI-SearchBot is what surfaces sites in ChatGPT search, separate from its GPTBot training crawler, and Perplexity says PerplexityBot surfaces sites in its results.
  • Clear, citable clinical answers: Pages that answer common patient questions plainly, with clinician review and consistent facts about providers, locations and services.
  • Honest structured data: Markup that matches visible content, used to describe providers and locations accurately, not sold as a ranking trick.
  • Transparent measurement: A defined set of test prompts, a stated method and clear labels on what is estimated.

Compliance and Advertising Rules

AI answers summarize your content in words you do not control, which raises the stakes on accuracy for health topics. Google’s guidance asks for highly accurate content that matches expert consensus on topics that affect health. If you need to limit what Google shows from a page, it points to nosnippet, data-nosnippet, max-snippet and noindex controls, and to Google-Extended for some of its other AI systems.

Paid placement is limited. OpenAI’s ad policies for ChatGPT currently prohibit ads for clinical care providers, hospitals, prescription drugs and prescription services, and keep ads out of mental and personal health conversations, so providers depend on organic citations there. Google also stopped showing FAQ rich results in Search in May 2026, so FAQ markup should not be sold as a visibility feature. Any tracking added to measure AI referrals falls under the same HIPAA tracking guidance from OCR as other analytics.

How Engagements Usually Work

Measurement is the hard part. Google counts AI Overviews and AI Mode appearances inside Search Console’s regular Performance report, and in June 2026 it announced dedicated generative AI performance reports in Search Console. Visits from ChatGPT or Perplexity show up as referral traffic in analytics. No platform reports every answer that mentioned you without sending a click, so third-party visibility tools rely on sampled prompts and should be read as estimates.

Many practices buy this work as an add-on to an SEO retainer rather than a separate program. A typical scope covers a baseline of priority prompts by service and location, content and listing fixes, crawler access checks and a regular report comparing citations over time. Ask how prompts are chosen and whether results are tracked by location.

Red Flags

  • Guaranteed AI placement: No one can promise a citation in ChatGPT, Perplexity or AI Overviews.
  • Secret markup claims: Pitches that a special file or schema type guarantees AI visibility, which Google says is not required.
  • Mass-produced pages: Hundreds of thin AI-written health pages aimed at chatbots.
  • Unexplained scores: Visibility scores with no prompt list or method behind them.
  • Blocked crawlers: Firewall or robots.txt settings that quietly block search crawlers while the agency bills for visibility.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between AEO, GEO and SEO?

SEO aims for visibility in search results. AEO and GEO focus on being cited or summarized in AI answers, such as Google AI Overviews, AI Mode, ChatGPT and Perplexity. In practice they overlap heavily, since AI search tools draw on pages that are crawlable, clear and trustworthy. Most healthcare AEO work extends an existing SEO program rather than replacing it.

Can I measure whether ChatGPT or AI Overviews mention my practice?

Partly. Google reports AI Overview and AI Mode appearances inside Search Console, and clicks from ChatGPT or Perplexity appear as referral visits in analytics. What you cannot see directly is every answer that named your practice without a click. Third-party tools estimate that by running sample prompts, so treat their numbers as directional and ask how they are calculated.

Do I need special schema markup for AI search?

Google says no special schema.org markup is needed to appear in AI Overviews or AI Mode, though structured data should match what visitors see on the page. Accurate markup for your organization, locations and providers still helps search engines understand your practice. Be wary of agencies that sell a particular file or markup as a guaranteed route into AI answers.

Can a healthcare practice pay to appear in ChatGPT?

Not through ads at present. OpenAI’s ad policies currently prohibit ads for clinical care providers, hospitals, prescription drugs and prescription services, and keep ads away from mental and personal health conversations. Organic citations in ChatGPT search cannot be bought. Your site needs to be reachable by OpenAI’s search crawler and offer clear, accurate information worth citing.

Should my practice block AI crawlers?

It depends on your goals, and the crawlers differ. OpenAI says blocking GPTBot, its training crawler, does not affect appearing in ChatGPT search, which relies on OAI-SearchBot. Perplexity says PerplexityBot is used to surface sites in its search results, not to train models. Blocking search crawlers usually means losing citations, so review settings with your agency and web host.
