Clinical Co-Pilot, 2026
Clinical Co-Pilot sits inside OpenEMR. The model proposes a next step. Code assigns a state: evidence found, order pending, no matching record, or records conflict. A missing record is never treated as not done. A later pass checks documents against the chart and shows a citation or unverified. A red-team report found four access-control bugs; after the fix, a deterministic replay failed. The report viewer cannot start a scan.
