Vals MedCode (MedCode)

Vals AI healthcare benchmark for whether models can support the medical billing process.

Data verified July 23, 2026

How BenchLM shows MedCode

BenchLM mirrors the public Vals AI MedCode leaderboard captured from https://www.vals.ai/benchmarks/medcode and updated by Vals on July 23, 2026. The snapshot preserves overall scores, uncertainty, latency, cost-per-test metadata, and task-level scores where Vals publishes them.

MedCode is display only on BenchLM. Vals proprietary or Vals-hosted aggregate views are useful context, but BenchLM does not use them as weighted ranking inputs or as a replacement for benchmark-native source records.

The published MedCode snapshot places Claude Opus 5 first at 63.57%. The third row is 7.50 points behind. The broader top-10 range is 11.37 points, so the table still separates the published systems.

76 models have been evaluated on MedCode. The benchmark falls in the External benchmark mirrors category. We keep external benchmark mirrors separate from the weighted global scoring system, so these results remain source-specific evidence. MedCode is currently displayed for reference but excluded from the scoring formula, so it does not directly affect overall rankings.
