How MedCode is shown here
BenchLM mirrors the public Vals AI MedCode leaderboard captured from https://www.vals.ai/benchmarks/medcode and updated by Vals on October 29, 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.
Snapshot
The published MedCode snapshot places Claude Opus 5 first at 63.57%. The third row is 4.77 points behind. The broader top-10 range is 10.35 points, so the table still separates the published systems.
107 models have been evaluated on MedCode. The benchmark falls in the Knowledge 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.
