Case library
Each case is a fictional San Antonio resident whose health concern sits alongside structural access barriers — travel time, housing conditions, clinic hours, language access. You choose priority questions, mark only the risks the case supports, judge urgency, and plan referrals, then read feedback against that case's answer key.
The cases come in pairs. Each pair shares a subject area but turns on a different decision, so the same set of facts does not always lead to the same answer.
