This could be used for monitoring edits to high importance medical articles as well as keeping track of new editors working on a project for their class. In the former case, you might want grad students, but for monitoring new editors any wikipedians could do such a review. Keeping medical articles accurate is only somewhat more important than making sure classwork editors don't further infuriate the community, but they are both high priorities so you might want to pay something per each review task so they don't just become another large number in WP:BACKLOG. Presumably the existing Foundation grants process should work with that, if someone would build the infrastructure for it. It probably wouldn't take too lonh to adapt an existing open source RSS reader to subscribe to the pertinent RSS feeds (such as from a "related changes" of a page with links to the articles in question, or the contributions of the new student users) and show them in sequence with [OK] and [Needs intervention] buttons. One thing we didn't discuss back then: Once the bad edits are flagged, who does the intervention?
