The bottom line

Roughly 85% of the work in Generate discharge instructions is information-shaped — already within reach of AI delivery. The question here is not whether it shifts, but which tasks go first and who staffs the residual.

Why: With no child occupations seeded, I derived the scalar from the process name and industry context. 'Generate discharge instructions' within Hospitals and Ambulatory Health Care Services is an information-transformation task—compiling medical data into a written document. While the broader healthcare environment is hybrid, the specific act of generating documentation is knowledge work, aligning with a band-center digital scalar.
