MedJev: Evaluating Zero-Shot System-One Decision Making in Medicine
Evaluation of MedJev, an open System One model that runs locally on a laptop, across ten medical benchmarks for knowledge, diagnosis, and patient-level prediction on MIMIC IV and MIMIC IV ED, with a two-parameter recalibration method and a released evaluation harness.

Highlights
- MedJev is an open System One model that runs locally on a laptop.
- Evaluated on ten medical benchmarks covering knowledge, diagnosis, and patient-level prediction with MIMIC IV and MIMIC IV ED.
- Scores 72.5% on MedQA, 75.4% on USMLE, and 80.1% on NEJM with ECE between 0.028 and 0.063.
- In-hospital mortality AUROC of 0.926 exceeds XGBoost at 0.902, but ED triage admission trails supervised models, 0.745 vs 0.809.
- A two-parameter recalibration using 50 to 200 labeled examples reduces ECE to 0.007.
Questions about this entry
Short answers drawn from the linked project or page.
MedJev is an open System One decision model that answers structured questions in a single forward pass without generating text. The paper describes it as running locally on a laptop, which the authors present as a low-computation option for clinical decision support.
Ten medical benchmarks spanning medical knowledge, diagnosis, and patient-level prediction. Patient-level tasks use MIMIC IV and MIMIC IV ED data, and results are compared against zero-shot LLM baselines, published GPT results, and supervised models.
MedJev reaches 72.5% on MedQA, 75.4% on USMLE, and 80.1% on NEJM, which the authors describe as approaching published GPT-4 performance while keeping well-calibrated confidence estimates with ECE between 0.028 and 0.063.
Knowledge and diagnosis tasks are well calibrated, with ECE from 0.028 to 0.063. Patient-level predictions are substantially miscalibrated, with in-hospital mortality showing an ECE of 0.286 before any recalibration is applied.
On operational outcomes. For ED triage admission MedJev scores 0.745 against 0.809 for supervised models. It does exceed XGBoost on in-hospital mortality, with an AUROC of 0.926 versus 0.902.
The paper introduces a lightweight, two-parameter recalibration method that adapts predictions to local patient populations using 50 to 200 labeled examples. Applied to patient-level predictions, it reduces ECE to 0.007.
Yes. The authors state that they release their code and evaluation harness to support future research, alongside the reported benchmark results for MedJev and the comparison baselines.
