OpenMed's synthetic discharge demo rejects a false potassium claim

OpenMed, the open-source clinical NLP project created by Maziyar Panahi, withheld a draft discharge brief in a planted-error demonstration after a local natural language inference model found the brief contradicted the note it cited. The demo planted a false potassium claim in a synthetic note, and the pipeline returned no text rather than passing the contradiction to a human reviewer. The project positions the refusal-first behavior as a safeguard for discharge summaries, which carry lab values and treatment history into the next setting of care.
