Abstract
The authors describe a case-management program for frequent users of the emergency department. The study had a single-subject design, with evaluation for each patient of the number of visits to the emergency department for a 12-month period before referral to the program and a similar period after implementation of an individualized care plan. Referrals were made on the basis of 2 or more of the following criteria: chronic medical condition, complex medical condition, drug-seeking behaviour, violent behaviour and abusive behaviour. A multidisciplinary team developed the individualized care plans. Twenty-four patients agreed to participate. For the 12-month period before their referral, these patients accounted for a total of 616 (median 26.5) visits to the emergency department; for a similar period after implementation of the care plans, they accounted for 175 (median 6.5) visits. The difficult-case management program appeared to be effective in reducing the total number of visits to the emergency department during the study period and in improving the care for these patients.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 it
