DocTalkBN is a large-scale multimodal dataset of authentic expert telemedicine conversations in Bengali, comprising 557.63 hours of paired audio and text, 1,515 multi-turn patient calls, and 10,274 host–doctor question–answer exchanges across 26 medical specialties. The dataset contains 1.7 million tokens and preserves the spontaneity and contextual richness of real medical interactions in a low-resource language. Three downstream tasks—medical triage classification, advice safety evaluation, and medical named entity recognition—are constructed to benchmark large language models and encoder-based baselines, demonstrating DocTalkBN’s practical usefulness for clinically grounded reasoning.

The paper presents a method for extracting key information from OCR‑digitized clinical reports, addressing challenges posed by heterogeneous documents and noisy OCR output. It introduces an open key space that is iteratively mined, normalized, clustered, and verified to build a canonical key inventory, and defines key coverage as a metric for inventory completeness. Experiments on reports from over 20 hospitals using a 0.2B BERT model show that performance improves steadily with key coverage, achieving high F1 scores when the top 90 keys are covered and outperforming a fine‑tuned Qwen3‑0.6B baseline.
