How to read an evidence label

Every claim BIIcare shows you carries one of four labels. FACT means it was verified directly — a facility confirmed the beds this morning. INFERENCE means we reasoned it from things you told us, and we'll show you the reasoning.

ASSUMPTION is the honest one: something we're treating as likely but haven't verified. Assumptions never drive outreach on their own — they drive questions. UNKNOWN means exactly that: we don't know yet, and we'll ask rather than guess.
