Ethical statement and disclaimer
MedPIC-Bench is a research benchmark for evaluating model behavior. It is not a clinical decision-support system, medical device, prescribing reference, or source of medical advice. Benchmark questions and model outputs must not be used to make decisions about diagnosis, treatment, medication selection, or patient care.
The benchmark covers a limited set of medication-safety rules, clinical contexts, and patient populations. It is not an exhaustive representation of clinical practice. Performance on this dataset does not establish that a model is medically accurate, safe, unbiased, or suitable for deployment. Model outputs may contain clinically harmful errors even when aggregate benchmark scores are high.
Users are responsible for appropriate expert review, risk assessment, and compliance with applicable ethical, institutional, and legal requirements.
