Corrections & release record

A correction is part of the evidence—not an embarrassment to hide.

DenQAI separates presentation fixes, source updates, method changes, calculation errors, and conclusion-changing corrections. The original issue, correction, date, and decision impact should remain visible.

July 24, 2026 · Editorial, evidence-label, and calculation correction

The public explanation now uses one current vocabulary and one acquisition cash method.

This release corrects decision-impacting inconsistencies found in a full-site text audit. It also improves sentence flow, page sequencing, privacy explanations, tool boundaries, and the connection between guides and workbenches.

Evidence labels repaired

Statutes and regulations are no longer mislabeled as commercial publications; peer-reviewed research, government methods, professional guidance, standards, and provider documentation now retain distinct source and authority labels.

Current federal date

The 2026 FTC/DOJ business-collaboration inquiry record now carries the extended May 21, 2026 comment deadline and still makes clear that an inquiry is not final guidance, a safe harbor, or approval.

Superseded methods removed

The Full Manual no longer teaches a market score, team-continuity score, stacked retention percentages, or a steady-state bridge that mixes A/R timing and prepayments with recurring revenue.

Pre-sale tool v3.1

The calculator now uses five non-overlapping dollar adjustments, separate first-year cash timing, separate prepaid-care obligations, and complete recurring operating layers before debt sizing.

Practice Flow clarified

“Confidence” is now accurately labeled input completeness, and “marketing-ready hours” is now potential capacity for a limited test—not a marketing recommendation or guarantee.

Privacy and AI boundaries

Practice Flow is included in the local-file notice. The payer guide labels AI-assisted billing as a hypothetical approved workflow and explicitly prohibits using DenQAI or an unapproved AI service for patient records.

July 24, 2026 · Payer, Credentialing & Cash Continuity

Payer readiness now follows the provider, entity, location, product, network, effective date, claim, payment, and first-bank-cash path.

This release adds a coded local educational workbench and offline workbook. It does not credential, contract, enroll, submit claims, verify participation, communicate with patients, rank payers, recommend participation, negotiate, upload records, or guarantee payment.

Eight milestones

NPI and identifiers, profile and attestation, contract and network path, effective provider/entity/location/product, directory, claim setup, EFT/ERA, and first paid claim remain separate.

Cash continuity

Patient-access cash at risk, interim bank cash, future recovery, unresolved pending exposure, first standard bank week, 26-week peak timing gap, and practice reserve margin use one disclosed contract.

Independent scenarios and events

Four participation scenarios remain unranked. Duplicate reversals, eligibility changes, recoupments, refunds, underpayments, offsets, recoveries, and unresolved amounts retain separate cash treatments.

Private local files and safety checks

A strict coded project file, formula-safe aggregate CSVs, 12-sheet offline workbook, five supporting templates, privacy-pattern blocking, and seven separate safety checks add no payer operation or shared fee database.

July 24, 2026 · Corpus consolidation and calculation repair

Six research files now resolve through one evidence, terminology, capability, and formula system.

This is a decision-impacting method release. Older saved acquisition, revenue-cycle, purchasing, succession, entry-path, and team-continuity files are not silently migrated because their units or controlling arithmetic changed.

Source control

Each original file is preserved as a research appendix with an explicit status, retained value, superseded rules, and public-use boundary. The narrative article is blocked from publication as written.

Independent evidence axes

Source kind, support relationship, verification, authority, jurisdiction, recency, commercial interest, and publication use are recorded separately instead of compressed into one grade.

Major formula repairs

Acquisition uses non-overlapping dollar adjustments; revenue cycle uses separate event and cash bridges; purchasing separates documented landed cost from scenarios; entry and team tools no longer average dimensions into scores; succession identifies terminal disposition cost.

Migration rule

Strict local files now identify the formula and schema that produced them. When a prior file lacks a required unit or line, the user is told to re-enter the aggregate decision instead of receiving an invented conversion.

July 24, 2026 · Governed Purchasing & Vendor Intelligence

Independent purchasing now compares usable units, complete cost, sourcing evidence, commercial influence, and exit without choosing a vendor.

This release adds a local practice tool and a clearly labeled hypothetical shared-infrastructure ideal. It does not create a cooperative, GPO, membership program, negotiated price, vendor ranking, group contract, account, upload, or data intake.

Comparable cost

Documented invoice economics and usable-unit cost remain separate from labor, waste, storage, downtime, recurring, installation, and exit scenarios. Promised rebates are never deducted until documented as received.

Risk-tiered sourcing

Product identity, authorized source, regulatory status, lot and storage, recall, warranty, clinical substitution, acceptance, data, and exit checks remain visible independently of price.

Commercial and GPO review

Membership economics, commitments, buying freedom, item-level prices, rebates, vendor selection, sponsorship, data use, savings evidence, and termination use separate documented rows.

Hypothetical ideal and local files

Nine shared-infrastructure gates teach owner control, clinical autonomy, transparency, data restraint, independent decisions, operations, correction, and exit. A strict project file, readable ten-sheet Excel workbook, and six templates add no operating network.

July 24, 2026 · Succession, DSO Offers & Patient Stewardship

The ownership lifecycle now carries seller value, control, patient trust, and post-close obligations through transition.

This release adds a seller-side comparison and governance system without creating a marketplace, brokerage, appraisal, fairness opinion, tax conclusion, document room, buyer ranking, or closing approval.

Seven paths, one horizon

Continued ownership, associate succession, staged buy-in, private sale, seller financing, independent merger, and DSO or group affiliation use one after-tax, present-value convention.

Headline value normalized

Cash at close, seller notes, holdbacks, earnouts, rollover equity, retained ownership cash, terminal value, earned clinical compensation, costs, friction, and guarantees remain separate.

Stewardship and control

Ten clinical-control decisions separate contractual authority from practical pressure; ten patient-stewardship terms and eight retained obligations remain visible through closing and exit.

Local files and safety checks

A strict Decision Bundle, four formula-safe dynamic CSVs, five owner templates, privacy-pattern blocking, and ten separate safety checks add no account, upload, document intake, or server save.

July 24, 2026 · Patient-Centered Capacity & Growth

Growth now has to reconcile patient access, sustainable hours, continuing care, referrals, and associate support.

This release adds an aggregate capacity-control layer without creating a patient queue, employee score, production quota, marketing recommendation, hiring decision, or autonomous outreach system.

One access chain

Inquiry, qualification, appropriate offer, scheduled appointment, arrived visit, retained second visit, redirection, and wait time remain separate with visible denominators.

Schedule and recall truth

Sustainable, scheduled, completed, cancelled, refilled, and overtime hours are reconciled while the active-patient base is rebuilt from completed visits, due cohorts, overdue aging, and arrived reactivations.

Referral and associate capacity

Referral openings, placements, acknowledgements, closures, and aging reconcile. Associate hours use the smallest demand, assistant, room, payer-effective, and planned constraint while mentorship remains separate owner capacity.

Local files and safety checks

A strict Decision Bundle, four formula-safe dynamic CSVs, five owner templates, privacy-pattern blocking, and eight separate safety checks add no account, upload, patient data, employee data, or server save.

July 23, 2026 · Patient-Centered Revenue-Cycle Control

The post-opening path now follows care delivered through bank-cleared cash and protected reserve.

This release adds aggregate operating control without creating a claim-submission system, patient collection queue, accounting policy, payer ranking, or clinical-performance target.

Event and cash bridges

Service production, claims, receivables, current- and prior-service receipts, payment channels, refunds, deposits in transit, bank-cleared cash, operating payments, taxes, debt, capital, owner clinical compensation, distributions, and reserves remain separate.

Exception ownership

Timing, error, dispute, patient balance, and clearing gaps each require an amount, one owner, next action, due window, evidence status, and aggregate supporting document.

Private payer review

Allowed revenue, collections, denial, outstanding balance, and administrative time can be reviewed by coded segment without publishing fee schedules, contracts, patient records, or competitor-sensitive data.

Local files and safety checks

The strict Decision Bundle and formula-safe CSV exports use aggregate inputs, privacy-pattern blocking, eight separate safety checks, and no account, upload, server save, claim action, or patient work queue.

July 23, 2026 · Patient-Centered Startup and Buildout Control

The build pathway now protects the care model, project scope, opening cash, and household reserve in one record.

This release adds owner-side construction and opening control without presenting DenQAI as an architect, engineer, contractor, lender, code official, or legal adviser.

Care before rooms

The owner mandate and operating program define appointment philosophy, procedures, technology, access, provider days, rooms, people, expansion triggers, decision rights, and conditions to pause, redesign, or leave before project arithmetic.

Five budgets and three reserves

Site and lease, professional services, construction, equipment and opening assets, and pre-opening operations remain separate from contingency, practice working capital, and household reserve.

Scope and change control

Three bid cases add entered allowance and exclusion exposure without ranking contractors. Approved, pending, draft, and rejected changes preserve direct cost, downstream cost, delay, owner, evidence, and operating effect.

Safety checks and local files

Eight site and project safety checks remain separate from twelve opening dependencies. Strict local JSON and formula-safe capital, bid, change, and dependency CSVs add no account, upload, or server save.

July 23, 2026 · Five-Bridge Acquisition Transfer

Seller collections now have to survive this buyer’s provider, clinical, payer, patient, and cost case.

This release completes the acquisition-transfer layer without turning historical production into a buyer forecast or using one blended deal score.

Buyer mandate first

Appointment and diagnosis philosophy, excluded procedures, access goals, owner hours, decision rights, cash, liquidity, household reserve, and conditions to pause, renegotiate, or leave are defined before price.

Visible dollar bridge

Seller-only, buyer clinical-model, patient/referral, payer/fee, and collection-loss adjustments use separately documented, non-overlapping dollars. First-year cash timing remains outside steady-state buyer-repeatable collections.

Restored cost and liquidity

Ordinary operating cost, labor, nonlabor systems, capital reserve, owner clinical compensation, debt service, transition reserve, working capital, and household reserve remain visible.

Portable local work products

The workbench strictly re-imports its Decision Bundle and exports formula-safe advisor and seller-request CSVs. It adds no account, upload, patient-record intake, employee-record intake, or server save.

July 23, 2026 · Common Ownership Comparison

Six ownership paths now use one explicit economic and patient-centered contract.

This release completes the next Patient-Centered Ownership System phase without creating a hidden recommendation or path score.

One owner mandate

Appointment philosophy, procedures not relied on, patient-access goals, required decision rights, household limits, and reversal conditions are defined before the financial comparison.

Comparable ten-year model

Clinical compensation, ownership cash, benefits, debt, owner cash committed, household reserve, guarantees, unpaid management labor, terminal value, and present value use the same calculation contract across six paths.

Safety checks stay visible

Clinical fit, household fit, decision rights, supporting documents, exit, reserve, guarantee, owner cash, and hours are not averaged into an opaque winner.

Portable local record

The workbench exports and strictly re-imports a DenQAI Decision Bundle, exports formula-safe CSV, and publishes owner-mandate and six-path input templates. No account, upload, or server save was added.

July 23, 2026 · Patient-Centered Ownership System

DenQAI now teaches the system around the decision—not only the tools inside it.

This product release adds a public ownership curriculum and an explicitly pre-operational Independent Scale pathway.

Understand the system

New lessons identify who represents whom, how brokerage changed as institutional capital expanded, why prices and assumptions remain hidden, how separate relationships must be proved, and how lenders and vendors can shape the final practice.

Build or buy

Employment, startup, acquisition, modernization, staged succession, and group affiliation now share one comparison contract for clinical fit, owner labor, capital, transfer, control, evidence, and reversal.

Independent Scale

Buying power, payer administration, shared services, governance, and a local-only interest brief are public. Negotiated pricing, joint contracting, member intake, accounts, uploads, and data collection are not live.

Work products and sources

Six controlled downloads and seven bounded source records support broker/adviser disclosure, buyer access, total landed cost, payer relationships, independent-scale readiness, antitrust limits, and consolidation history.

Correction standard

Report the smallest reproducible claim.

A useful correction identifies the exact object, the evidence that supports the replacement, and whether the decision changes.

  1. Name the exact page, statement, table, formula, control, or downloadable file.
  2. Explain why it may be wrong, incomplete, stale, ambiguous, or inaccessible.
  3. Provide the replacement primary source or direct record, including issuer, date, and exact location.
  4. Classify the impact: presentation, source wording, input data, method, calculation, interpretation, or conclusion.
  5. Show the corrected language or calculation and the assumptions it changes.
  6. State whether a build, buy, price, structure, payer, staffing, or walk-away decision could change.
Protect the record while correcting it.

Do not submit patient-identifiable information, employee-confidential information, passwords, credentials, or unredacted deal documents. Redact to the minimum evidence needed and use an authorized secure channel for restricted records.

Create a report

Copy the template, complete it, and send it through the authorized channel already used for the review.

The template forces the issue, source, impact, and proposed replacement into the same record. DenQAI does not publish a general file-upload form because restricted deal or patient information should not be invited through an unverified channel.

July 23, 2026 · Evidence Enforcement & Release Assurance

Decision-impacting corrections in the current release.

The release record now distinguishes these corrections from ordinary feature work.

Import and export safety

Local Project, Policy Evidence, and Decision Bundle imports now reject unknown or malformed fields; evidence exports neutralize spreadsheet formulas; privacy scans and status gates cover the normalized payload.

Evidence labels

Verification states, source kinds, support relationships, recency, and commercial interests now remain separate and require the supporting locator, period, reviewer, finding, control, or observed failure defined by the workflow.

Calculation methods

First 48 Months no longer sends an unfunded practice draw to household cash; acquisition debt uses monthly amortization; viability crossover must remain nonnegative; directional score verdicts were removed.

Tax and source corrections

New Hampshire’s Business Profits Tax and Tennessee’s excise tax are classified as profits/income taxes, not alternative-base taxes. Tennessee ownership-law status is downgraded until current codified text is directly verified.

Public change log

Visible fixes and source clarifications.

Presentation and clarity fixes are logged separately from changes that affect a calculation or recommendation.

DateTypeWhat changedDecision impact
July 24, 2026Text accessibility / source clarity

Inline glossary links no longer insert full hidden definitions into headings and sentences. Ambiguous glossary negations, dense decision-chain and diligence copy, dated notice wording, Tennessee ownership wording, and a stale Medicaid missed-appointment citation were corrected.

Improves reading order, screen-reader output, and source precision without changing a formula or recommending a different owner decision. The Medicaid boundary is now supported by the 2026 CMS EPSDT coverage guide.

July 24, 2026Payer, credentialing / cash continuity

A coded local workbench and 12-sheet offline workbook now join three relationship maps, eight readiness milestones, a 26-week cash bridge, four unranked participation scenarios, five payment events, and seven safety checks.

Prevents NPI, credentialing, contracting, enrollment, effective participation, directory status, claim acceptance, EFT/ERA, service activity, and bank cash from being treated as interchangeable. No payer operation, recommendation, shared fee database, upload, or guaranteed payment was created.

July 24, 2026Seller succession / patient stewardship

A local seller-side workbench now joins seven transition paths, a disclosed present-value bridge, four deferred or contingent components, ten clinical-control decisions, ten stewardship terms, eight obligations, ten separate safety checks, and five controlled templates.

Prevents headline price, cash at close, rollover equity, earnouts, post-close clinical pay, clinical authority, patient commitments, and retained duties from being treated as interchangeable. No marketplace, buyer ranking, appraisal, account, upload, document intake, or server save was created.

July 24, 2026Patient access / capacity control

A local aggregate capacity-growth workbench now joins the patient-access funnel, sustainable schedule hours, completed-visit recall cohorts, referral reconciliation, associate capacity, eight separate safety checks, and five controlled templates.

Prevents demand, bookings, active-patient flags, scheduled hours, and supported growth from being treated as interchangeable. No production quota, patient queue, employee score, outreach, hiring decision, account, upload, or server save was created.

July 23, 2026Operating control / revenue cycle

A local aggregate revenue-cycle workbench now reconciles production, adjustments, current and prior-period collections, refunds, deposits, bank-cleared cash, expenses, debt, capital, clinical compensation, distributions, and reserve. Five exception classes, three coded payer segments, eight separate safety checks, and five controlled downloads were added.

Prevents production, collections, and distributable ownership cash from being treated as interchangeable. No claim action, patient work queue, accounting approval, payer ranking, account, upload, or server save was created.

July 23, 2026Workspace demand validation / local project

A Local Project File now coordinates eight evidence workstreams, eight separate safety checks, reviewer roles, and six observed workspace-need tests with local JSON/CSV import and export. Accounts, uploads, server saving, collaboration, and case submission remain unavailable.

Tests whether persistence is actually needed before DenQAI assumes cloud privacy and security risk. This release added no intentional application-level upload or persistence path, and no readiness score or cloud-launch claim was created.

July 23, 2026Research governance / closed-intake pilot

The owner case-series pilot now publishes a draft protocol, research questions, independent evidence axes, a data dictionary, consent-design preview, seven launch checks, and a local-only case builder. Intake remains closed, enrollment and accepted-file counts remain zero, and no submission channel exists.

Constrains this workflow so operator stories remain case signals rather than prevalence claims or uncontrolled research records. It does not establish regulatory approval, exemption, de-identification, or any finding about owner outcomes.

July 23, 2026Method / formula major version

The viability tool moved to formula v2.0.0. Realizable equity is now rebuilt from transferable value less debt, sale cost, tax, and a liquidity haircut; only annual equity change is counted; outstanding guarantees remain separate. First 48 Months, Delay Cost Clock, calculation contracts, golden fixtures, and local Decision Bundles were added.

Prior illustrative viability outputs are not comparable without recomputation. The new method can materially reduce or delay owner-value recognition and expose earlier practice or household reserve failure.

July 23, 2026Evidence operations / buyer playbooks

A typed claim/source register now exposes IDs, effective periods, exclusions, review due dates, reviewers, and stale states. Ownership/control and clinical-transfer/rapid-exit playbooks and fieldbooks were added. Download metadata now comes from one manifest.

Buyers can preserve unresolved control as a separate safety check and separate clinical screening patterns from independent findings, recurring value adjustments, and one-time patient obligations.

July 23, 2026Product architecture / disclosure

Navigation now separates decisions, tools, templates, research, and trust; each calculator has a stable URL; the site states that the current public product has no accounts or saved projects; privacy, terms, glossary, and example-record pages were added.

Improves orientation and prevents the site from implying persistence or collaboration that is not currently offered. Calculator formulas are unchanged.

July 22, 2026Accessibility / presentation

Primary call-to-action labels in contextual link groups could inherit the ordinary blue link color. Button contrast and interaction states were made explicit site-wide.

None. Content, calculations, and recommendations are unchanged.

July 22, 2026Source limitation

NPPES language now says provider-supplied records help identify possible people and sites but do not, by themselves, prove licensure, credentialing, plan participation, or current clinical capacity.

Reinforces the existing capacity-verification method; no result changed.
