This system uses artificial intelligence to help government employees review medical files for Canada Pension Plan Disability (CPPD) applications. It organizes documents, identifies key information, and provides summaries to support human adjudicators — the AI does not make eligibility decisions itself. Applicants whose files are processed through this system should know that AI is used to assist, not replace, the medical adjudicators reviewing their case.
