Abstract
Six Canadian provinces allow pharmacists to prescribe for ambulatory conditions (also sometimes referred to as “minor ailments”; see below). In 2007, Alberta became the first province to lay the legislative groundwork for a pharmacist-led ambulatory condition program (PACP) through its “Additional Prescribing Authority.”1,2 In 2011, Nova Scotia and Saskatchewan introduced their PACPs. In 2014, Manitoba, New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island followed suit.2–4 Most recently, British Columbia and Newfoundland have submitted proposals for PACPs.5,6 In Ontario, despite advocacy efforts by the Ontario Pharmacists Association (OPA) and support from the Ontario College of Pharmacists (OCP), prescribing for ambulatory conditions was not part of the 2012 scope of practice changes.3,7 The Health Professions Regulatory Advisory Council (HPRAC), responsible for the scope of practice changes, reported that pharmacists had the necessary training, but suggested a working group be formed to discuss possible frameworks.7 To date, this group has not been convened. This commentary highlights 5 controversies regarding Canadian pharmacist-led ambulatory conditions programs, all of which are important considerations for other jurisdictions moving forward with such programs.

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
