4| Dimension | Model | Rating | Rationale |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sector adoption velocity | claude-haiku-4-5-20251001 | 1/5 | Healthcare organizations depend on human managers to maintain trust with physicians, boards, and communities. No measurable displacement of managerial consultation roles by AI is evident; these roles remain highly protected by governance structure and human-contact requirements. |
| Sector adoption velocity | claude-sonnet-5 | 2/5 | Healthcare administration adopts AI mainly for documentation and analytics, not for stakeholder relationship management, so adoption in this specific task area is slow. |
| Augmentation potential | claude-haiku-4-5-20251001 | 2/5 | AI can assist with scheduling meetings, summarizing stakeholder feedback, or drafting talking points, but cannot materially amplify a manager's ability to conduct the core consultation and coordination itself, which remains a human-centered relationship task. |
| Augmentation potential | claude-sonnet-5 | 3/5 | AI can help prepare briefing materials, summarize community needs data, draft communications, and analyze feedback trends, meaningfully aiding preparation even though the core consultation stays human-led. |
| Task automatability | claude-haiku-4-5-20251001 | 1/5 | This task fundamentally requires real-time interpersonal negotiation, relationship-building, and contextual judgment across heterogeneous stakeholder groups with conflicting interests. Current AI cannot independently build trust, navigate political dynamics, or make binding commitments on behalf of an organization. |
| Task automatability | claude-sonnet-5 | 1/5 | This requires live, high-stakes interpersonal negotiation, relationship-building, and representation of an organization across diverse stakeholders—something current AI cannot execute end-to-end. |
| Adoption barriers | claude-haiku-4-5-20251001 | 5/5 | Health services managers are accountable to boards, regulators, and communities for service decisions and public commitments. Legal liability, fiduciary duty, and organizational governance require a licensed human manager to own these consultations and sign off on plans and public statements. |
| Adoption barriers | claude-sonnet-5 | 4/5 | Trust, accountability, and organizational representation require a human with authority and relationship capital; community and business stakeholders expect a human counterpart, creating strong practical barriers to substitution. |
| Cost vs. human wage | claude-haiku-4-5-20251001 | 1/5 | The overhead of AI oversight, human review of all stakeholder commitments, and the reputational risk of AI-led consultations means the all-in cost far exceeds a manager's hourly rate. Human judgment on these decisions remains legally and operationally necessary. |
| Cost vs. human wage | claude-sonnet-5 | 1/5 | There is no AI substitute performing this consultative role, so cost comparison favors the human entirely; any AI use is merely supportive tooling. |
| Technical feasibility today | claude-haiku-4-5-20251001 | 1/5 | No deployed AI product performs autonomous stakeholder consultation and coordination at the level required here. While chatbots can provide information, they cannot authentically represent organizational interests, negotiate service changes, or credibly enhance public relations in real stakeholder settings. |
| Technical feasibility today | claude-sonnet-5 | 1/5 | No deployed product conducts autonomous stakeholder consultation and coordination meetings on behalf of a manager; this remains a human-led relational activity. |

How to read this
A high substitution score does not mean this job disappears — it means a large share of its current tasks face replacement pressure, so the mix of tasks is likely to change. High augmentation alongside substitution typically means the occupation reorganizes around the protected tasks. Wide confidence intervals mean the rater panel disagreed: treat those scores as open questions, not verdicts.
What would change this score
New model capabilities (automatability, feasibility), falling inference costs (cost ratio), regulation and licensing shifts (barriers), and measured sector adoption (velocity) all re-enter at every index release. Each release is recomputed, versioned and kept queryable — scores are claims with a date on them, not permanent labels.
