What is Synthesis and Evaluation of Long-term History-aware Medical Dialogue?
An effective healthcare agent must be able to recall and reason over a patient's longitudinal medical history. However, the absence of datasets with realistic long-term dialogue timelines limits systematic evaluation. Real clinical text is constrained by privacy and ethics, while existing benchmarks focus on isolated interactions, failing to capture cross-session reasoning. We introduce a framework for synthesizing high-quality, long-term medical dialogues with LLMs. Our approach entails a knowledge-guided decomposition into three stages: constructing synthetic patient profiles with diverse disease and complication trajectories, generating multi-turn dialogues per encounter, and integrating them into a coherent longitudinal history dataset, MediLongChat. We establish three benchmark tasks-In-dialogue Reasoning, Cross-dialogue Reasoning, and Synthesis Reasoning-to evaluate the memory capabilities of healthcare agents. To assess data quality, we introduce a multi-dimensional evaluation framework combining vector-based metrics with LLM-as-a-judge assessments. Specifically, we define automatic measures-Faithfulness, Coherence, and Diversity-together with two LLM-based evaluations: Correctness and Realism. Benchmark experiments show that even state-of-the-art LLMs struggle with MediLongChat. These findings highlight the benchmark's applicability and underscore the need for tailored methods to advance healthcare agents.
Tier D
Long tail: little or no usage data yet.
How much stands behind a tier: usage, who backs it, a confirmed line from its own site or paper, and a clear read on X. High with three of the four, medium with two, low otherwise.

How we got to tier D
- Adoption: 5 models scored; no proper name (a paper title or description). Tier D.
- Not yet read on X.
- In curated RL directories: 1 point, a floor of none.
- Not yet confirmed by a line from its own site or paper.
A clear view on X moves a tier one step up or down; most entries don't move. How tiers work.
Not on the map yet: no line from its own site or paper places it in a domain.
