BioNLP @ACL 2025 Shared Task on Grounded Electronic Health Record Question Answering (ArchEHR-QA)

The overarching goal of the ArchEHR-QA 2025 (pronounced "Archer") shared task is to develop automated responses to patients' questions by generating answers that are grounded in key clinical evidence from their electronic health records (EHRs). The proposed dataset, ArchEHR-QA, comprises hand-curated, realistic patient questions (reflective of patient portal messages), relevant focus areas identified within these questions (as determined by a clinician), corresponding clinician-rewritten versions (crafted to aid in formulating responses), and note excerpts providing essential clinical context.
