Great questions.

1. Prioritization: I instruct the model to prioritize evidence in this hierarchy: Meta-Analyses & Systematic Reviews > RCTs > Observational Studies > Case Reports. It explicitly deprioritizes non-human studies unless specified.

2. Why not OpenEvidence? OE is excellent! But we made two architectural choices to solve different problems:

'Long Tail' Coverage: OE relies on a pre-indexed vector store, which often creates a blind spot for niche/rare diseases where papers aren't in the 'Top 1% of Journals.' Because Evidex queries live APIs, we catch the obscure case reports that static indexes often prune out.

Workflow: OE is a 'Consultant' (Q&A). Evidex is a 'Resident' (Grunt work). The 'Case Mode' is built to take messy patient histories and draft the actual documentation (SOAP Notes/Appeals) you have to write after finding the answer.
