01 — What it does

A checklist generated from the guide, and a cited verdict.

  1. 01

    Pick the service category

    Six highest-denial categories: crowns, partial dentures, complete dentures, additional scaling units, periodontal services, major restorative. Categories, not procedure codes, because codes and preauth flags differ by province and provider type.

  2. 02

    Answer what the guide actually asks

    Yes/no, dates, and counts — never a chart note. Conditional questions appear only when they apply, and an excluded service ends the check on the spot with the Appendix E citation.

  3. 03

    Read the verdict with its receipts

    READY, AT RISK, or WILL LIKELY BE DENIED. Every rule, pass or fail, shows the guide section and quote behind it, so a disputed verdict can be argued from the source.

02 — Zero patient data

There is no field for a patient name. There is no upload button.

The checker only needs to know whether criteria are met, so that is all it can hold. Cases are numbered, and the one free-text label is 60 characters with a visible warning. The invariant is enforced by an automated test on every build, not by a policy document.
