Axis TA · T — Trust
The tools you trust become the chart you can read.
A wearable that runs out of battery is a missing day in your chart. A scale you don't step on is a missing month. We measure how much of your life is actually instrumented and how much your AI tools help — not as a sales pitch, but as an honest data-quality score.
Trust — but specifically, the trust your tools earn. Working sensors, working coaching, working integrations.
Eleven signals tracking the quality and breadth of your instrumentation. Patients with sparser data don't get punished — they get a smaller TA contribution, with the rest of the axes filling the gap.
From signals to a single value.
Each signal contributes a weighted partial score. The axis aggregates them and clamps to 0–100. Here's a worked example for a real (anonymized) patient on this axis today:
Sample contribution
Where it lands in CH
TA contributes T in (T + E)p. It is the only axis we don't recommend trying to maximize — most patients hit a plateau at 70–80 and that's where they should sit. Going past it usually means over-instrumentation.
T — Trust
A typical week, on the axis.
No single day defines you. A consistent week does. Here's what consistent looks like — and the HCR you'd earn for it.
The pay ladder.
TA payouts are intentionally small. We don't want patients gaming the score by over-instrumenting — TA exists to ensure data quality, not to be the destination. Always free to receive — patients never pay to earn HCR, and clinics never see a bill for hosting it.
All payouts settle to the patient's HCR wallet within 24 hours of verification. HCR is redeemable for care, contributions to a Conceptual Health pharmacy account, or held as a long-term reserve.
For providers ordering on this axis.
For Conceptual Health-credentialed clinicians: this is the recommended order-of-operations on this axis. Free to use, no certification required, no software to install — the protocol lives inside the EHR you already use through us.
Technological Augmentation · clinical sequence
- TA is your data-quality dashboard. Open it before trusting any other axis.
- A score below 60 means the chart you're looking at has gaps — interpret accordingly.
- If the gap is in the wearable, ask why; pricing is rarely the issue (HCR earnings cover most patients).
- If labs are stale, order them. Don't guess.
- Don't over-prescribe instrumentation. A patient at TA 75 doesn't need a CGM unless their PO axis is calling for it.
The peer-reviewed evidence base.
Every signal we score has a literature trail. These are the foundational papers we cite in our scoring model documentation. Our full bibliography (404 references) is available in the methodology appendix.
One real (anonymized) trajectory.
Names changed. Numbers verified. A composite from three patients with similar starting conditions — the chart, the intervention, and the outcome.

"I thought my chart was bad. Turns out my chart was empty. Once I wore the band consistently, weighed weekly, and got labs done, all my other axes started making sense — and the AI started giving me actually-useful advice."
What you can study, and how.
TA fields are useful primarily as data-quality covariates. Most studies should treat TA as a confounder rather than an outcome. Research access is available to credentialed institutions through the HCC research portal — pay-per-query, patient revenue-shared.
All fields below are time-aligned and de-identified to NIST 800-53 standards.
Standards we conform to.
No new yardsticks. We map every signal on this axis to existing peer-reviewed instruments and regulatory norms — the same instruments your clinician learned in residency.

The other seven axes
Eight axes. One score. Each pulls.
Health is multi-dimensional. TA is one of eight. The Master Equation weights them, multiplies them, and gives you and your clinician a single number — and the ability to see exactly which axis is moving it.
