This came up last night fighting very overpowered bad guys...again.
I understand the level restriction, so you'd need a 18th level contingency caster to hold a 6th level heal, but can someone else cast the contingent spell?
I read it a couple of times last night and didn't see anything specifically requiring where the contingent spell came from...nor anything specifically allowing it aside from the first sentence of the description: "You can place another spell upon your person..." Notice it doesn't say 'cast' it says 'place'. It goes on to say that the spells are both cast at the same time, which almost hints that you cannot cast your own spell that will be triggered.
Case in point is a wizard who's contingency pops a heal on him when he gets below a certain percentage of hit points...it happened twice.
What's your take on it? Conservative? Liberal? Bad wording?
