- Comparative effectiveness claims are qualified and individualized.
- Content does not imply diagnosis from symptoms.
- Per-Q&A disclaimer is present via UI component.
- Section heading is Questions to ask your provider.
- Coverage clusters have recency caveat enabled.
- Content leans toward rights and navigation over clinical protocol.
| id | fix | pattern |
|---|---|---|
| LP-001 | Replace specific numbers with provider-personalized phrasing, such as asking what threshold applies to the user. | Specific clinical thresholds stated as facts |
| LP-002 | Reframe as questions to ask a provider about whether an action is safe or appropriate for the user. | Directive language: never, always, must, you need to, you should |
| LP-003 | Remove drug names from answer text as recommendations; allow drug names only as vocabulary in provider-question sections. | Specific drug names as recommendations |
| LP-004 | Remove specific thresholds/time windows, redirect to provider-specific emergency plan, and include the universal emergency fallback. | Emergency language with clinical specificity |
| LP-005 | Use qualified phrasing such as research suggests or some evidence indicates, then individualize to the patient/provider context. | Comparative effectiveness claims as settled fact |
- Questions, not directives
- Education, not diagnosis
- Rights and navigation, not clinical protocols
- General information with individual caveats
- Emergency awareness without triage
| id | name | scope | priority | old heading | implementation |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| SC-001 | Rename section heading | All Q&As across all clusters | High before launch | What to do or ask | Database field name and UI display label must use the provider-question framing. |
| SC-002 | Persistent disclaimer on every Q&A card | High before launch | Build into Q&A card component as a non-removable footer; muted/secondary visible text; no smaller than 11px rendered on mobile. | ||
| SC-003 | Onboarding disclaimer screen | High before launch | Appear on first launch only; record acknowledgement timestamp; legal screen remains accessible; not a Terms/EULA replacement. | ||
| SC-004 | Coverage content recency caveat | Medium before launch | Tag coverage clusters and render an informational banner automatically; collapsible after reading; not a red/amber warning. |
Add or revise a module/task for knowledge-base ingestion, compliance linting, persistent disclaimer UI, onboarding legal screen, coverage cluster tagging, and source-file row-count verification.
Strengthen broad no-medical-advice rules with exact language-pattern constraints, required UI disclaimers, and coverage recency caveat.
M-00 should require these structural changes before any public Q&A launch or Q&A-card implementation approval.
Add client-provided Pocket Advocate compliance guide and Q&A knowledge base as explicit source material.
