For WISeR participants & coverage-decision AI — the human review rail
Your model flags the case; a licensed clinician must make the call — CMS requires it, and the politics now require you to prove it. The Review Rail is state-matched, NPI-verified physician review delivered as an API, with a tamper-evident receipt for every determination that anyone can verify without trusting you — or us.

CMS's WISeR model requires the review of a human clinician on every non-affirmation — it cannot be performed solely by technology, and inaccurate determinations are audited, quality-scored, and terminable. The AMA's 2026 policy requires meaningful human oversight: physician-led, transparent, auditable. Both name the requirement. Neither publishes the test for whether a review actually happened. Here it is — five things, all provable. Measure any vendor against them, including us.
The test that settles it: if the human can be removed "whenever a health system chooses," the human was a cost, not a control — and a removable human is not real human review. The Review Rail is built so the human can't be quietly subtracted. The receipt is the product. These five are v1.0 of a published, hash-anchored standard — The Five Tests of a Real Review — free for anyone to adopt, meet, or exceed, including our competitors.
NPI verified against CMS NPPES in real time; matched to the case's state and specialty. Your Ohio determinations are reviewed by Ohio-licensed physicians — and your epidural-steroid and cervical-fusion denials by physicians who treat spine. The requirement, met literally.
Every review is hash-anchored at signing: what was reviewed, the verdict, the reviewer's credential class, the timestamp. The registry root is countersigned into Bitcoin daily — your proof survives any dispute, any audit, any of us.
physician_review(artifact) → signed verdict + receipt, callable from your existing loop via MCP or REST. BAA available. Your reviewers appear inside your workflow, not beside it.
Double-review calibration with published rubric and inter-reviewer agreement statistics — the provider-experience and process measures your model participation is scored on, documented.
The pilot is scored against a published, hash-anchored standard: The Five Tests of a Real Review — licensed and matched, independent, engaged (measured), receipted, durable. Free for anyone to adopt, including your other vendors; we meet it test by test.
Six companies now run AI-assisted prior authorization for Medicare in six states — Arizona, New Jersey, Ohio, Oklahoma, Texas, Washington — paid on averted expenditures, required to put a licensed clinician behind every non-payment recommendation, while a repeal bill and litigation ask whether the humans in the loop are real. And the services under review are spine and pain: epidural steroid injections, cervical fusion, vertebral augmentation, lumbar decompression, knee arthroscopy, nerve-stimulator implants — cases where the reviewer's specialty is the whole question. The requirement is no longer only federal, either: in 2026, seven states wrote licensed-human review of AI coverage decisions into general insurance law — Colorado's statute requires a reviewer "competent in the relevant clinical area" (specialty-matching, by law), and Maryland now requires quarterly reporting on AI-assisted denials, which is exactly what receipts feed. Free AI drafting has made unsigned clinical output universal. The scarce thing is no longer the model's opinion; it is the licensed signature and the proof. We sell the signature, with the proof attached.
