The paper introduces ICD-Deepresearch, a workflow that combines foundation models for electronic health records (EHR) and language models with medical search and ICD dictionaries to forecast future ICD codes for upcoming clinical encounters. It evaluates candidate code transitions by linking patient evidence, external clinical relations, and exact code semantics within a fixed top‑K budget, using SparseEHR for initial priors, GPT‑5 for complementary forecasts, and a final selection step that validates, deduplicates, and ranks candidates. The method achieves patient‑averaged precision/recall of 24.60/35.09% on MIMIC‑III and 25.14/48.32% on MIMIC‑IV, with physicians rating 51–68% of its retrieved documents as useful, outperforming standalone GPT‑5 web search and Medical Deep Research.

The paper introduces TIR-EC, a tool‑integrated reinforcement learning framework designed to improve large language models (LLMs) for emergency department prediction tasks. TIR-EC exposes groups of electronic health record (EHR) features as callable tools and trains the LLM using rewards from a gradient‑boosted tree teacher, while a reverse curriculum gradually removes prompt‑based skills to embed task‑specific clinical knowledge into the model weights. Experiments on three clinical prediction tasks show that a 4B TIR‑EC agent achieves the highest macro F1 among compared models, surpasses conventional machine‑learning baselines, and competes with much larger frontier LLMs, while also selecting more useful evidence with fewer tool calls.

The study re‑implements 12 AI algorithms for electronic health records within a unified framework and evaluates them on MIMIC‑IV and NWICU datasets. It compares expert‑authored clinically meaningful tasks with randomly generated tasks, finding that pairwise algorithm comparisons transfer well across task families and datasets, yet clinically meaningful tasks show stronger task‑method interactions. The results also reveal that newer algorithms do not consistently outperform older ones, with gradient‑boosted trees remaining highly competitive when combined with modern EHR representations.
