The clinical window closes 2026-09-15 and the money is not there until 2026-09-25, 10 days later. Re-issuing, substituting or escalating are all prescriber acts, so this one is worth the slot.

likelySeptember 25 and 27
The floor is 6 days out. The card leads with the earliest day, not the middle of the range: a date three days early is a card declining at the counter, which is the most adherence-destroying event in the whole journey.
In production this is an event trigger on the live connection — the deposit posts and the alert fires — not a forecast. No backtest exists, so no accuracy figure is quoted here and none should be inferred from the window.
STALE
Can afford it, but not inside the clinical window. Re-issue, substitute or escalate — all three are prescriber acts, which is what makes this one worth a slot.

Basal insulin continuity. The current pen runs out inside this window and there is no gap here that is clinically safe.
Not an expiry date. A non-controlled prescription is valid up to a year in most states; what happens at 10–14 days is the pharmacy returning will-call stock to the shelf, which is restocking, not expiry. The deadline in this block is clinical, it is specific to this drug, and a prescriber is the only person who can move it — which is the whole reason a prescriber is the right recipient.

Nothing is displaced. Paying the $118.00 today still covers every dated obligation in the next two weeks. The account simply does not hold it yet — there is no second-order cost to report and none is invented here.

Never transmitted, never logged against the prescription, never available to the plan.
† One exception, stated rather than buried. When an obligation is displaced, the card above names it — “short on Appalachian Power” — because “an obligation goes short” is not something a prescriber can weigh. That single merchant is the only ledger-derived fact on this page, it is rendered on the server into a sentence, and it is not part of the claim in the left column: it does not travel with the alert, does not reach the plan, and does not enter the chart.
And the minimal payload is not a free payload. A STRUCTURAL enum written into a chart is durable and discoverable: it follows the patient to every future clinician, it is reachable in discovery, and unlike a balance it never goes stale. Two fields is the smallest thing that supports the decision — it is not a thing with no cost, and the only payload that carries no cost at all is the one for a row we refuse to send. That is what happens to every TIMING row on this panel.
Fund the fill — $118.00
A funded purchase at the pharmacy, not a payment to the patient. The foundation pays the pharmacy for this one fill; no cash reaches the patient, and nothing is conditioned on a future fill.
Funder is Blue Ridge Access Foundation, an independent charitable foundation. Never a brand, and never a payment per fill to anyone for arranging a prescription.
Commercial plan. Blue Ridge Access Foundation, an independent charitable foundation and never a brand fund, buys the fill at the pharmacy counter.
Sandbox limitation, stated rather than hidden: Nessie has no pharmacy account, so the demo posts a funder→patient transfer that stands in for the pharmacy leg. In production the money is never in the patient’s checking account at any point.

Where did that window come from
Classifier
Copay $118.00. Written 2026-08-16, with a 30-day clinical window, so the window closes 2026-09-15. Scanning 2026-09-19 through 2026-11-03.
Essential-category merchants already counted as fixed obligations, so excluded from the floor to avoid double-counting them: Appalachian Power.
Essential floor drawn from 2 merchant(s) in grocery/fuel/utility/pharmacy/childcare: Kroger #412 Roanoke, Exxon Williamson Rd.
Essential spend by complete month: 2026-06 $439.00, 2026-07 $389.00, 2026-08 $389.00. Median = $389.00/month.
Surplus = income $2,435.00 - fixed obligations $1,307.00 - essential floor $389.00 = $739.00 per month.
Essential spend accrues at $12.78 a day ($389.00 / 30.4375).
Payroll projected forward: $1,120.00 every 14 days from 2026-09-11 — 2026-09-25, 2026-10-09, 2026-10-23.
Dated obligations inside the scan: Appalachian Power $129.00 on 2026-09-21; Hollins Mill Rentals $1,095.00 on 2026-10-04; Verizon Wireless $83.00 on 2026-10-11; Appalachian Power $129.00 on 2026-10-21; Hollins Mill Rentals $1,095.00 on 2026-11-04.
Surplus $739.00 covers the $118.00 copay, so a Ready Day exists in principle. Scanning day by day for the first one.
Ready Day 2026-09-25 (6 day(s) out): projected balance $1,061.60 - $0.00 of bills in the following 7 days - $150.00 buffer = $911.60, which covers the $118.00 copay.
STALE: the Ready Day 2026-09-25 falls after the clinical window closes on 2026-09-15 (10 day(s) late). The patient can afford this drug, just not in time — and only a prescriber can re-issue, substitute or escalate. Do not switch the drug on price alone and do not chart a refusal.
Ready Window: earliest 2026-09-25, likely 2026-09-25 to 2026-09-27 (2 day(s) of slack). Cadence confidence 100.0% on a 14-day cycle, so the observed jitter is (1 - 1) x 14 = 0.00 days, rounded up to 0 and added to the 2-day floor. The Ready Day is the floor of this window, never a promise of a single date — in production it stops being a forecast and becomes an event trigger on the live bank connection.
ALREADY SHORT, not displaced: Appalachian Power ($129.00, due 2026-09-21) is short by $7.28 with the $118.00 copay NOT paid — $121.72 on hand that morning. This obligation fails with or without the prescription, so the prescription is not the cause and we do not claim it is. The honest signal is that this household is already behind.
Balance curve
Curve opens at today's checking balance $147.28 and walks 45 days to 2026-11-03.
Each day subtracts $12.78 of non-deferrable spend ($389.00 / 30.4375 days), adds any payday, and subtracts any obligation dated that day.
Reconciles: on 2026-09-25 the curve reads $1,061.60, less the following week's bills and the $150.00 buffer leaves $911.60 — the same clearance the classifier used to pick the date.
Shaded band = the published window: earliest 2026-09-25, likely through 2026-09-27. The floor is what the card leads with, because a date three days early means the card declines at the counter.
Patient card
STALE card: earliest 2026-09-25 lands 10 day(s) after the clinical window closes on 2026-09-15 (30-day window). The prescription itself is not expired and the card does not say it is.
Routing
The clinical window closes 2026-09-15 and the money is not there until 2026-09-25, 10 days later. Re-issuing, substituting or escalating are all prescriber acts, so this one is worth the slot.
Clinical window: 30 days from 2026-08-16, closed 2026-09-15. Weight 0.92. The window is part of the synthetic scenario, like the copay; the arithmetic run over it is not.
Claims index said no-fill; the ledger said STALE. Two independent sources — the only reason this row could be considered for a slot at all. The ledger side is corroboration, not fill-level verification: a bank line reading CVS/PHARMACY #1234 $47.00 carries no NDC and no Rx number, and we do not claim it does.
