Abstract

BACKGROUND: For large language models (LLMs) to reach their potential as information technology tools that make medication use safer, clinically relevant benchmarks capable of automated grading and designed specifically to measure the performance of LLMs for medication tasks are required. The purpose of this study was to design a suite of benchmarking tests reflective of Comprehensive Medication M…
