DEMO-25Provider Obligation Not Yet Activated by a Patient-Controlled Trigger

Authored demonstration. Not a live employer result.

01 · Situation

A provider's review obligation is contingent on the patient first completing an at-home step (returning a test kit). The kit has not been returned.

Illustrative home-testing program protocol, which assigns the provider several distinct obligations — issue the kit, communicate return instructions, and send a reminder at a stated interval — and separately states the review obligation activates only upon kit return; the protocol assigns the patient no obligation.

02 · Evidence

    Verified · on file

  2. E2Kit issuance record

    Verified · Day 0

  3. E3Return-instructions communication record

    Verified · Day 0

  4. E4Reminder log reviewed through Day 21, the protocol's stated reminder interval; reminder sent as required

    Verified · Day 21

  5. E5Kit-return repository reviewed through Day 30; no returned kit recorded

    Verified · Day 30

03 · Obligations / Owners

The chain of responsibility.

  1. 01

    Provider — issue the kit (E2, fulfilled), communicate instructions (E3, fulfilled), send reminder at the stated interval (E4, fulfilled). Review obligation: not yet activated, since its trigger (E5) has not occurred. No obligation is assigned to the patient.

04 · Event Type

The classification of the event.

Three provider-side stored events (E2, E3, E4), each independently supported; trigger-repository review (E5).

05 · Verification Result

What verification established.

SUPPORTED for each provider sub-obligation; SUPPORTED as to the trigger's non-occurrence (E5 is an affirmative repository review, not mere silence, since the return repository is the authoritative record of kit returns).

06 · Projection

What the evidence implies ahead.

All demonstrated provider obligations fulfilled; the review obligation has not activated because its governing trigger has not occurred. No provider clock has begun for review, and no patient failure is asserted.

07 · Next Action

The corrective obligation.

None indicated by this record beyond what the protocol already specifies (the reminder already sent per E4).

08 · Economic Boundary

Where the evidence stops.

Not applicable.

09 · Engine Answer

What the Engine can and cannot establish.

The protocol assigns the provider three distinct obligations — issuance, instruction, and a timed reminder — each independently demonstrated as fulfilled. The protocol separately states the review obligation activates only when the kit is returned. The return repository, reviewed through Day 30, shows no return. The Engine can demonstrate that every provider obligation this record can evaluate is fulfilled, and that the review obligation's trigger has not occurred — not that the patient is delinquent, since the protocol assigns the patient no obligation at all.

Every provider obligation this record can test is fulfilled. The one that depends on the patient has not yet begun

10 · What Remains Unknown

Outside the Engine's reach.

Why the kit has not been returned; whether the patient intends to return it.
