Housing insecurity and cancer in South Australia: artificial intelligence-enabled insights from a statewide cancer support service
Objective: This study demonstrates the use of a locally hosted, offline artificial intelligence approach to identify, quantify, and describe housing-related needs documented in routine case notes from a statewide cancer support service. Methods: In this retrospective, exploratory service evaluation, a locally hosted, offline large language model screened 25,031 staff-generated case notes recorded between December 2020 and December 2025 for housing-related interactions and grouped confirmed interactions into cate…
In a retrospective evaluation, a locally hosted offline AI model screened 25,031 cancer support case notes and, after reviewer checks, identified 308 housing-related interactions that were otherwise buried in routine records.

How to check it yourself, without trusting this page
Download any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-2425 and hash its canonical field yourself, for example with shasum -a 256. You should get its content_hash. Each version’s text also ends with prev:and the hash of the version before it (version 1 points to 64 zeros). If anyone had changed a single character of any version after it was saved, those hashes wouldn’t line up.
