Evaluating Retrieval-Augmented Generation vs. Long-Context Input for Clinical Reasoning over EHRs

arXiv:2508. 14817v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Objective: To evaluate whether retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) can serve as an efficient alternative to long-context prompting for clinical reasoning over electronic health records (EHRs).

A Living Benchmark for Information Retrieval from Electronic Health Records

The paper introduces BRIE, a continuously maintainable benchmark for evaluating large language models (LLMs) in electronic health record (EHR) information retrieval. It presents a scalable framework that automatically generates question–answer pairs from longitudinal EHR notes, validated by nineteen clinicians. The benchmark allows assessment of multiple inference strategies and highlights that state‑of‑the‑art LLMs often miss clinically important information, especially when synthesis across documents is required.

A Living Benchmark for Information Retrieval from Electronic Health Records

The paper introduces BRIE, a scalable framework that automatically creates question–answer pairs from longitudinal electronic health record notes, validated by nineteen clinicians. It offers a continuously maintainable benchmark for evaluating large language models in clinical settings, addressing limitations of manual, costly, and quickly outdated existing benchmarks. Experiments across nine LLMs and five inference strategies reveal that even state‑of‑the‑art systems often miss clinically important information, especially for synthesis‑heavy queries.

OpenAIs HealthBench in Action: Evaluating an LLM-Based Medical Assistant on Realistic Clinical Queries

arXiv:2509. 02594v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Evaluating large language models (LLMs) on their ability to generate high-quality, accurate, situationally aware answers to clinical questions requires going beyond conventional benchmarks to assess how these systems behave in complex, high-stakes clinical scenarios.

EHR2Trace: Auditable EHR Data Infrastructure for Patient World Models and Clinical Agents

EHR2Trace is a system that transforms electronic health records from multiple sources into a standardized, traceable event format suitable for training and evaluating patient world models and clinical agents. It links each event to its original record, separates the event time from the time the information became available, and distinguishes between medication orders, dispensing, and administration. The tool supports both OMOP and MEDS data models, includes automated validation, and was tested on three clinical datasets, converting 846.4 million events and detecting all injected faults.

CliniCARE-Bench: Clinical Calibrated Audit of Medical Reasoning in EHR

arXiv:2608. 07796v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models perform strongly on medical knowledge benchmarks, but reliable clinical deployment requires agents to conduct defensible investigations over heterogeneous, longitudinal records: determining what evidence is needed, retrieving and reconciling structured and free-text data, grounding conclusions in verifiable evidence, and deferring cases that cannot be resolved reliably.

EHRNote-ChatQA: A Benchmark for Evidence-Grounded Multi-Turn Clinical Question Answering over Longitudinal Discharge Summaries

arXiv:2606. 15735v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Discharge summaries are crucial clinical documents containing the context of a patient's overall hospital stay, and are routinely reviewed by medical experts for patient readmission, ongoing care, and diagnostic decision-making.
