So, let me see if I follow this.
The pill reports that it hasn't been ingested and alerts the doctor.
Does the doctor call the patient, who is a schizophrenic and presumably knows or doesn't care that they haven't taken the pill, or,
does the doctor call the patient's family, thereby violating privilege and putting the family in the position of having to call the cops and risking this:

I can't see much good coming of this.

Quote:Manney was conducting a welfare check on Hamilton, who had recently gone off his medication and was sleeping the park (though he was not, in fact, homeless). Flynn said that Manney’s antagonizing pat down, which was done from behind—which might alarm a paranoid and mentally ill man—was performed “for no reason” and set off the incident. Other officers had checked in on Hamilton earlier, and since he was obviously not well, Manney should have called back-up or held off entirely.
