Teaching LLMs Brazilian Healthcare: Injecting Knowledge from Official Clinical Guidelines

arXiv CS.CL

ArXi:2605.01077v1 Announce Type: new Brazil's Unified Health System (SUS) relies on official clinical guidelines that define diagnostic criteria, treatments, dosages, and monitoring procedures for over 200M citizens. Yet current LLMs perform poorly on this guideline-specific knowledge, and no benchmark evaluates clinical recall grounded in Brazilian Portuguese protocols. We address this gap by adapting Qwen2.5-14B-Instruct to the Brazilian clinical domain.
