arXiv:2606.06990v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The generation of high-fidelity synthetic Electronic Health Records (EHR) is crucial for advancing medical research while preserving patient privacy. However, head-to-head comparison of existing generative models is hindered by disjointed codebases, incompatible data loaders, conflicting library dependencies, and inconsistent evaluation protocols. To address these gaps, we introduce a lightweight, end-to-end benchmarking framework for reproducible synthetic EHR evaluation, organized as a unified pipeline spanning data ingestion, standardized mode
The increasing sophistication of AI models for healthcare combined with growing concerns about data privacy necessitates robust, reproducible methods for synthetic data generation and evaluation.
Advancing medical AI research without compromising patient privacy is a critical bottleneck, and frameworks like this accelerate progress by standardizing evaluation and fostering collaboration.
The fragmented landscape of synthetic EHR generation tools is being unified, allowing for more direct comparisons, faster iteration, and higher-quality, privacy-preserving medical AI applications.

Standardized benchmarking accelerates the development and adoption of high-fidelity synthetic EHR generation.
Improved synthetic EHRs enable more rapid testing and validation of new medical AI algorithms, reducing development cycles and costs.
The widespread use of privacy-preserving synthetic data could democratize medical AI research, allowing smaller institutions and startups to contribute more effectively without access to sensitive real-world datasets.
