Summary

ResidencyRL rehearsed multi-turn encounters with adversarial patient simulators and structured feedback.

On held-out simulations, the authors report diagnostic accuracy rising from 81 to 88 percent and missed red flags falling 31 percent. They explicitly say prospective real-world validation is still required before clinical utility can be established.
