Abstract
Methods for evaluating drugs to ensure there is value for money spent have been debated for years. There have been many attempts at controlling the use of drugs starting with formularies, limited listings for specific uses and the negotiation of prices. The strategy put forward by the lead authors would be helpful to all parties. Their proposal would allow evidence to be the arbiter and provide information that is understood by all concerned. It would take courage by all interested parties to accept these ideas. However, the time is right for the adoption of a better way to keep drug programs affordable without denying anyone the treatments that can make a difference to their health.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
