While prior work focuses on short sufficient evidence, regulatory compliance and medical billing call for complete evidence: all relevant input tokens that support a decision. We formulate complete evidence extraction as a task and study it in a medical coding setting. Motivated by the Rashomon effect, we aggregate token-level evidence from multiple language models to increase evidence completeness. We perform a case study using existing equally-performing models, feature attributions, and a dataset with human-annotated evidence. Our results show that Rashomon ensembles significantly increase evidence recall while incurring only a small token overhead over individual models. Ensembles of only three models already outperform the best single model and recover information that individual models miss.","short_abstract":"High-stakes decisions informed by decision support systems require explicit evidence.
