Abstract

 In the health care system, common elements of SEMs include pooled referrals and waiting lists, centralized intake through a single-entry point, and triage for urgency and appropriateness.
 Four programs including the use of SEMs from the Canadian context were examined: the Winnipeg Central Intake System for hip and knee replacements, the British Columbia Surgical Strategy, the Nova Scotia Hip and Knee Action Plan, and the Saskatchewan Surgical Initiative.
 SEMs were generally implemented as 1 element of broader strategies to reduce surgical waits and enhance quality and safety of surgical services.Key success factors for implementation of SEMs included:
 
 Concurrent investments in surgical capacity and health system resources.
 The establishment of standardized clinical pathways to reduce care variation.
 Strong leadership, including a focus on change management and use of clinician champions.
 Standardized data collection and public reporting on key performance indicators.
 Concurrent focus on quality improvement and patient-centred care.
 
 
 Challenges for implementation of SEMs included:
 
 Effectively managing change and resistance to change.
 Challenges in other areas of the health system that could impact wait times.
 Maintaining strategic focus and predictable funding, especially in the face of external shocks.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
