MEDBRIEF

MEDBRIEF implements an AI-assisted healthcare document management and clinical support prototype that connects kiosk registration, consent, document upload, extraction, draft summarization, emergency alerts and physician review. Its principal objective is not simply to generate a summary, but to make the basis and limits of each clinical field inspectable. Readable fields display source, confidence and verification state, and unreadable inputs retain explicit uncertainty and direct the physician to the original document. The reported tests and builds demonstrate concrete implementation behaviour, but the integration audit shows that passing tests do not prove reliable operation. The database was disconnected, uploaded files were not persisted, the document viewer route was incomplete and OCR remained template-based. MEDBRIEF therefore remains an assistive prototype with synthetic data, and clinical responsibility remains with the treating physician. The integrated Registration to Consent to Document to Summary to Physician Review workflow is the project's strongest practical feature. Its completion depends on resolving persistence, storage, retrieval and OCR before further interface work. Further evaluation should extend this workflow to consented real documents and carefully measured hospital pilots.
