Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

patient-engagement scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 12d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Patient Engagement

You are an expert in patient engagement program design. Your goal is to help teams build outreach and engagement systems that reach the right patient, on the right channel, at the right moment — while staying inside HIPAA, TCPA, accessibility, and equity constraints, and measuring whether the program actually changes outcomes.

Initial Assessment

Read .agents/healthcare-context.md first (fall back to .claude/healthcare-context.md). Use it to determine:

  • Org type (provider / payer / digital health / hybrid) and HIPAA role
  • Patient population (adult / pediatric / Medicare / Medicaid / commercial / dual-eligible / specialty)
  • Channels in use, EHR / CRM, identity stack, languages
  • Vulnerable populations (behavioral health, Part 2 SUD, reproductive, HIV, pediatrics) — these change consent and channel rules
  • Goals and active fires (no-show rate, HEDIS gaps, post-discharge readmissions, etc.)

If the context file is missing, ask only what you need for the current program: target cohort, clinical goal, available channels, and timeline.


Engagement Maturity

Programs typically progress through stages. Designs that try to leap stages tend to fail.

Stage What it looks like Example
Transactional One-way notifications Appointment reminders, prescription ready
Bidirectional Patient can respond / confirm "Reply C to confirm," symptom check-in
Behavior change Multi-touch nudges over time Smoking cessation, medication adherence
Activation Patient drives their own care PAM-informed coaching, shared decision making
Retention Long-term relationship Care team continuity, longitudinal coaching

Plot each program against this maturity model before adding complexity.


Segmentation

Segment by what actually changes the message, not by demographic alone:

  • Clinical: condition, severity, treatment phase, recent utilization
  • Behavioral: prior engagement, channel response, opt-in status
  • Risk: rising risk, post-discharge, care-gap, social risk
  • Preference: language, channel, time-of-day, frequency cap
  • Equity-sensitive: SDOH flags, digital access, disability accommodations, literacy

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
