We had to deal with such overlapping labels a lot. For us working with separate models for each Label performed mediocre. We went for a token labeling with multiple labels per token to allow for overlaps. From their description I also wonder wether the same span can have multiple labels?
One of their examples lists such a span (septic shock is both Factor and Condition)
