Evidence × Personalization × Action.
Every intervention we surface for discussion with your physicians is scored on three independent axes. The axes are the rubric; a nine-stage workflow is how we apply it to your case.
Most medical advice fails one of three tests.
Either the evidence is weak, or it doesn’t actually fit the individual in front of you, or it can’t realistically be acted on given the person’s access, finances, or life. The Ternary Method makes those failure modes visible before the advice is given, not after.
Does the published literature, current clinical guidance, or accumulated clinical experience support this intervention for your condition and your context?
- —10/10 — randomized trial evidence in your exact condition
- —5/10 — reasonable mechanistic rationale plus observational data
- —1/10 — anecdote only
Does this intervention fit you — your biology, your genetics, your comorbidities, your preferences, your constraints? An intervention with strong evidence can still score low here if your profile makes it a poor fit.
- —10/10 — specifically indicated for your phenotype and genetics
- —5/10 — generally appropriate; no strong reason against
- —1/10 — contraindicated or mismatched with your profile
Can you actually do this? Is the specialist available? Is the drug covered? Does the timing work with your life? A brilliant intervention that requires six months of wait time scores lower than a good intervention available now.
- —10/10 — accessible, covered, timely
- —5/10 — accessible with effort or trade-offs
- —1/10 — structurally out of reach for your situation
A composite score out of 30, resolved into three tiers.
Each axis is rated 0–10 independently. The composite puts every option on the same scale, so a supplement can be compared to a surgery, a lifestyle change to a medical therapy. Nothing is hidden as opinion.
What your plan is built around. These are the interventions we expect you to pursue, with specific next steps and sequencing.
Worth discussing with your physicians. Sometimes a better fit than a Tier 1 option depending on your preferences or a constraint we can't resolve.
On our radar but not default recommendations. Included in the report because clients often ask — and because transparency about what we considered is part of the work.
An intervention with strong published evidence can still score low overall if it doesn’t fit your biology, or if the specialist who delivers it has a 12-month wait. That’s the point of using three axes instead of one.
A structured pipeline, not a custom one.
A Precision Deep Dive typically runs Day 0 through Day 55 — from first application through 30 days of post-delivery execution support. Each stage has a defined input, output, time budget, and contribution to our proprietary data foundation. Stage 02 (intake) runs against the standardized Ternary Core Dataset.
Short application screened for fit, not just willingness to pay. Condition, stage of journey, data availability, goals, realistic expectations.
Structured questionnaire. Records, labs, imaging, and optional genome upload. Kickoff call to build the timeline narrative.
Unstructured inputs converted to the Ternary case schema. Hundreds of fields per case — symptoms coded to a controlled vocabulary, labs normalized to reference ranges, genetic variants flagged against a curated relevance list.
The Ternary Signal Library applied to your case. Abnormal labs, genetic flags, comorbidity patterns, lifestyle factors ranked by likely relevance and modifiability.
Structured literature review per signal and for your primary condition. What current guidance says, what recent literature is showing, where evidence is strong vs. thin.
The option space — surgical, medical, lifestyle, emerging pharmacological, monitoring. Each pathway mapped to specialists, institutions, and decision points.
Every option scored on the Ternary Method (Evidence × Personalization × Action). Ranked. Plan sequenced with prerequisite logic so that each step unblocks the next.
Draft reviewed internally by the principals. Findings call, walk through the plan, adjust for your priorities and constraints.
30 days of asynchronous follow-up. Weekly check-ins. Specialist appointment preparation. Post-consultation debriefs. Labs and imaging interpreted as they arrive.
Every engagement compounds.
Stages 3, 4, 6, and 9 each contribute to five named data assets that accumulate with every client. It’s why the tenth engagement is sharper than the first, and why the hundredth rests on pattern recognition no one else can reproduce without doing the same work.
Every engagement structured and indexed — condition, profile, interventions, outcomes.
A controlled vocabulary of lab patterns, variants, symptom clusters, comorbidity combinations, each weighted by condition.
A living document per condition, tracking guidelines, recent literature, and evidence grades per intervention.
A curated network of clinicians and institutions — who's known for what, what they've actually delivered, who's accessible.
What happened to clients 3, 6, 12 months after engagement. Which recommendations correlated with improvement.
Clear lines.
Ternary Health is not a medical practice. We don't prescribe, treat, or replace your physicians. We build the integrated view; your doctors make clinical decisions.
Every claim in your report is sourced and graded. Where the literature is uncertain, we say so. Where specialists disagree, we surface the disagreement rather than hide it.
Deliverables are structured for the exam room — compact enough for a busy specialist to absorb, deep enough to support the conversation that follows.

We accept a small number of cases each month and decline applications we can’t meaningfully advance.
