Rationale

A $13B boost in primary care: team-based clinics, nurse practitioners, community health centres. Chain: primary_care_spending -> emergency_room_visits (-0.35, d2). The most direct healthcare chain: invest in prevention, and ER utilization drops. Students see why upstream investment beats downstream crisis management.

Details

Epoch: 39

Domain: healthcare

Fiscal cost estimate (LLM): $13.00B CAD

Structural estimate (RIPPLE): -$2.73B CAD net (v3-bfs-signed depth=2, decay=0.5/hop; diverges)

Top RIPPLE cost paths
  • −$2.73B → healthcare_spending (Healthcare Spending) via emergency_room_visits

Causal effects: 1 downstream variables affected (0 immediate)

Divergence after: 301.397

Variable changes

  • primary_care_spending: 62 → 75

Proposed policy move

primary_care_spending: 62 → 75 (▲ 13)

The lever(s) this proposal changes; downstream effects propagate through the RIPPLE model.
