Why the capstone exists
Packets still use Care, Cost, Code. Normal Events and Legacy Events use the same Regional, State, and National stages, with different cutoffs. Track 4 is where a chapter stops collecting modules and starts running a case the way a judge will hear it.
4.1 Applying the Framework
One case run through the three-lens framework. Name the patient, the payer, and the system. About is still the only page that explains those lenses at length.
4.2 Case Analysis Practice
Guided practice on past-style cases. Teams should already be covering clinic, money, and tech before they enter a judged event.
4.3 Competition-Specific Prep
A pitch is not a hearing. A solo chart review is not a four-person crisis command. Prepare for the event you entered.
Lab preview
A full mock case run-through, in teams. New schools should start a chapter, not email for a dump of lessons.
