arXiv:2608. 19875v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Patients often submit short, underspecified queries to healthcare chatbots that lack the patient-specific information needed to determine an appropriate response.

The paper introduces Clinical System One (CS1), a 4‑billion‑parameter decision model that rapidly produces typed judgments from clinical records. Trained on 12.4 million Q&A pairs from 3.6 million patients, CS1 can answer multiple questions in a single forward pass, providing probability estimates for uncertain cases. In evaluations on 963,408 held‑out patients and 21 external datasets, CS1 outperformed larger open models and, when paired with a language‑model agent, efficiently identified trial‑eligible patients with far fewer tokens.
arXiv:2608. 09080v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) have achieved strong performance in medical question answering and clinical reasoning tasks.
arXiv:2606. 07237v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly used in healthcare for tasks such as clinical question answering, diagnosis support, and report summarization.
The paper introduces a multi‑agent large language model framework that interprets personalized health checkup results by assigning distinct tasks to specialized agents and combining their outputs. Experiments on 120 Korean compound queries show that the multi‑agent approach improves overall quality scores and user preference compared to a single‑agent baseline, though it incurs higher latency and cost. The benefits are most pronounced for queries requiring personal‑record lookup.
arXiv:2607. 10275v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models achieve high scores on medical knowledge assessments, yet clinical reasoning requires actively deciding what to investigate under uncertainty.
PIA is a personal intelligence agent that works alongside a consumer health agent to convert health conversations into structured clinical records and to transform those records into a synthesized understanding of the user. It uses a memory system with four controls—extraction, memory, retrieval, and understanding—each supported by a health module that includes a schema, medical alias dictionary, knowledge graph, and temporal rules. The agent demonstrates that deeper memory injection—from simple recall to a health snapshot to a causal trajectory—yields progressively richer answers, while also revealing challenges such as missing self‑reported data, the influence of question phrasing, and the presence of structural noise in causal links.
The paper introduces a retrieval‑augmented multi‑agent framework that automatically generates instance‑specific evaluation rubrics for medical language models. By retrieving authoritative medical evidence, decomposing it into atomic facts, and combining these with user interaction constraints, the system produces fine‑grained criteria that outperform GPT‑4o on HealthBench and LLMEval‑Med. The generated rubrics also guide response refinement, improving medical LLM output quality by 9.2%.
arXiv:2607. 25485v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Health AI is evolving from answering questions to agentic systems that converse with patients, reason about health records, and act on their behalf.
arXiv:2607. 12886v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Clinical notes contain many of the signs and symptoms that bring patients to care, yet this information rarely reaches structured fields.
AcuityBench is a new benchmark that tests whether language models can correctly identify the urgency of medical care needed from user presentations. It unifies five public datasets—user conversations, online forum posts, clinical vignettes, and patient portal messages—under a shared four-level acuity framework, providing 914 cases for evaluation. The benchmark supports both explicit four-way classification and free-form conversational responses, revealing that models vary widely in accuracy and that conversational formats reduce over-triage but increase under-triage, especially for high-acuity cases.
