Nature Medicine, Published online: 10 August 2026; doi:10.1038/s41591-026-04574-5 In piloting and deploying a large language model within a large medical center, we learned that benchmark-based evaluations are insufficient for monitoring and evaluating interactions driven by clinicians, and that this requires new methods for monitoring performance.
You can't spin up a maternity ward in CI. But you can get 274 tests and 90% coverage without one. Some Background I've been building an open-source Maternity HL7-to-FHIR Pipeline that converts legacy HL7 v2.5 messages into FHIR R4 resources with Australian and European FHIR profiles. The pipeline has three layers: Mirth Connect for HL7 ingestion, FastAPI for FHIR transformation, and HAPI FHIR Ser…
Edinburgh-based tech firm Craneware said customer data was stolen during a cyberattack. The company makes software that thousands of U.S. hospitals, pharmacies, and clinics rely on for billing patients, potentially exposing health data.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is helping nurses better predict health problems before they become emergencies, according to a new review of existing research published in JMIR Nursing.
The Gemini -based research system matched primary care physicians overall across 100 simulated multi-visit cases but remains outside clinical use. Google Research and Google DeepMind have tested AMIE's ability to manage health conditions across multiple simulated patient appointments. Google Research and Google DeepMind have extended the Articulate Medical Intelligence Explorer (AMIE) from one-of…
Step Two: Conduct a Risk Analysis Before Writing Any Code The HIPAA Security Rule explicitly requires a thorough assessment of the potential risks and vulnerabilities to the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of ePHI. This isn't bureaucratic box-checking. A proper risk analysis fundamentally shapes your architecture. A risk analysis for healthtech software should identify every system, …
I worked at a startup in Toledo called Heartland Information Services. We provided transcription services to some of the biggest hospitals in the United States, and we weren't small. Heartland was one of the larger medical transcription organizations in the country, one of the companies at the center of offshore transcription in that era. While that sounds simple enough, we were the kind of servi…
Team Members @k_sidharthareddy_15 | @k-deepak-544 | @nupur_madhrey_07 | @avika_kashyap | @dheerajkumar08 | @chanda_rajkumar Introduction So here's the thing — when We started working on MediSimplify , a project that takes medical reports and converts them into patient-friendly language, We thought the hard part would be the NLP simplification. Turns out, just getting the text out of the document …
Software as a Medical Device (SaMD) is a groundbreaking advancement in the healthcare industry, transforming the way medical care is delivered and managed. First developed in its earliest forms in the 1980s, this category of software operates independently to perform medical functions from diagnostics, patient monitoring, and image processors to artificial intelligence (AI) and deep learning neur…
Liver transplantation is a lifesaving procedure for those suffering from end stage cirrhosis, liver failure, or a cancerous lesion of the liver. Unfortunately, there is a shortage of available liver grafts. Only in the US, every year nearly 14,000 patients are listed and waiting for orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) while 3,000 patients are dying or increasing illness before getting a liver …
