Can AI Be Trusted In A Medical Emergency?
At Counsel, our AI Research team tackled a crucial question: can AI effectively recognize medical emergencies? Utilizing HealthBench Consensus, the first large-scale benchmark for medical reasoning, we evaluated AI systems against leading models in triage accuracy.
Key Insights:
- HealthBench Dataset:
- 5,000 synthetic healthcare scenarios evaluated by 262 physicians
- Focus on emergency escalations: 103 scenarios tested
- Results:
- Counsel AI achieved 100% recall with fewer false negatives compared to other models.
- Strikes a balance between catching true emergencies and avoiding unnecessary escalations, reducing patient stress and emergency room strain.
Our findings show that AI can enhance rather than replace clinical judgment, establishing trust in emergency care.
