RAG for telemedicine

RAG for telemedicine — retrieval grounded in your clinical corpus with citations and faithfulness evals, so answers are safe to put in front of a clinician.

// The problem

Why this is hard

In a clinical product, a retrieval system that returns a plausible-but-unsupported answer isn't a bad search result — it's a safety event. Generic RAG isn't enough: you need grounding in your clinical corpus, citations a clinician can check, an eval harness that measures faithfulness, and privacy that keeps patient data where it belongs.

// How we do it

The approach for this fit

Clinical-grade grounding

Answers composed only from your retrieved clinical sources, with citations back to the exact passage — no unsupported claims reach a clinician.

Faithfulness evals

Every change is scored for citation support on a held-out set; an answer the source doesn't back fails the gate rather than shipping.

Privacy + audit

Run retrieval in your environment (or under your data terms) with every step traced, so patient data stays private and each answer is reconstructable.

Human-in-the-loop

Low-confidence or high-stakes cases route to a person with the retrieved context attached, so automation is bounded to what it does reliably.

Common questions

You do, and the system is built so that decision has evidence under it rather than a feeling. Every answer carries citations back to the passage it came from, the eval harness scores citation support on a held-out set at every change, and low-confidence or high-stakes cases route to a person with the retrieved context attached. What we deliver is the harness and the thresholds; who is allowed to raise a threshold, and on what evidence, is a clinical governance decision and stays with you.

We scope access tightly and can run the retrieval + model in your environment or under data terms that keep PHI from leaving it, so grounding on your corpus doesn't mean sending it somewhere it shouldn't go.

Yes — every answer carries citations back to the source passage, and the retrieval is traced, so a clinician (or an auditor) can check exactly what the system drew on.
