Assessment and Accountability
Abstract
Since the end of World War II the United States has seen two revolutions in its medical care system. It is now on the threshold of a third.The first of these began in the late 1940s and early1950s and continued through the 1960s. It can be described as the Era of Expansion and was characterized by rapid growth in hospital facilities and the number of physicians, new developments in science and technology, and the extension of insurance coverage to the majority of the population. Medical schools increased and produced an army of new specialists trained in the use . . .

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
