Med360: A Family of Fine-tuned Multilingual Medical AI Assistants for Indian Healthcare

1. Introduction

The proliferation of Large Language Models (LLMs) has opened new possibilities for healthcare applications, from clinical decision support to patient education. However, existing medical AI systems predominantly cater to Western healthcare contexts, trained on English-language data from American and European medical sources. This creates significant barriers for deployment in diverse healthcare ecosystems like India, where:

1. Linguistic Diversity -India has 22 official languages and hundreds of dialects. In healthcare settings, patients frequently communicate in Hinglish, a code-mixed variety combining Hindi and English, which existing models handle poorly.
2. Medical Context Differences -Disease prevalence, treatment protocols, and pharmaceutical products differ significantly. Conditions like dengue, malaria, typhoid, and tuberculosis require India-specific management protocols.
3. Pharmaceutical Nomenclature -Indian patients recognize local brand names (Crocin, Calpol, Combiflam) rather than international names (Tylenol, Advil) used in Western-trained models.
4. Healthcare Infrastructure -Recommendations must account for India's healthcare system, including government hospital programs, DOTS treatment protocols, and vaccination schedules.

1.2 Contributions

This paper presents the following contributions:

1. Med360 Model Family -A series of fine-tuned models optimized for Indian medical consultations, starting with Med360 Lite (4B) and planned extensions to Med360 Pro (12B) and Med360 Ultra (27B).
2. Curated Dataset -A comprehensive medical training corpus of 173,000+ examples combining international medical knowledge with India-specific data.
3. Hinglish Medical Corpus -The first synthetic dataset of medical conversations in Hinglish, designed for training healthcare chatbots.
4. Evaluation Insights -Critical analysis showing that automated metrics may penalize clinically useful concise responses, with proposed alternative evaluation frameworks.
5. Deployment Framework -A practical architecture for deploying medical AI assistants with patient history integration and safety guardrails.

1.3 Med360 Model Family

We introduce Med360 as a family of medical AI models designed for progressive capability scaling:

Model	Parameters	Base Model	Status	Target Deployment
Med360 Lite	4B	Gemma 3 4B	Released	Mobile, edge deployment, low-resource settings
Med360 Pro	12B	Gemma 3 12B	Planned	Clinical decision support, hospital deployment
Med360 Ultra	27B	Gemma 3 27B	Planned	Advanced diagnostics, research applications

All models in the Med360 family share:

• Native Hinglish support
• Indian pharmaceutical nomenclature
• AIIMS/NEET-PG level medical knowledge
• Concise, clinically-appropriate response style
• India-specific disease protocols

2. Related Work

Several efforts have adapted LLMs for medical applications:

• ChatDoctor (Li et al., 2023) -fine-tuned LLaMA on 100k patient-doctor conversations from online health forums.
• MedPaLM (Singhal et al., 2023) -Google's medical-specific model achieving expert-level performance on medical examinations.
• BioMistral (Labrak et al., 2024) -an open-source medical LLM based on Mistral architecture.

However, none specifically address Indian healthcare contexts or support Hinglish communication.

Research in multilingual medical NLP remains limited:

• XLM-RoBERTa Medical -provides multilingual embeddings for medical text but lacks generative capabilities.
• IndicBERT -provides Indian language models without medical domain adaptation.

Our work bridges this gap by creating a generative medical model with Indian language support.

Hinglish NLP has gained attention in recent years with GLUECoS (Khanuja et al., 2020) providing a benchmark for code-switched NLP, and HinglishNLP (Srivastava & Singh, 2021) providing datasets and models for Hinglish text. We extend this work to the medical domain with healthcare-specific code-mixed data.

3.1 Base Model Selection

We selected Google's Gemma 3 4B Instruct model based on:

1. Size Efficiency -4B parameters enable deployment on consumer hardware and cost-effective cloud inference.
2. Instruction Following -Pre-trained for conversational interactions.
3. Open Weights -Enables fine-tuning and local deployment without API dependencies.
4. Architecture -Modern transformer architecture with competitive performance.

3.2 Training Data Curation

Our training corpus comprises three progressive stages of fine-tuning, each building upon the previous.

Stage 1: Initial Medical Foundation (23,400 examples)

The first stage established core medical conversational abilities using a curated combination of medical Q&A datasets: 21,272 training and 2,128 validation examples.

Sources:

• ChatDoctor (patient-doctor conversations from HealthCareMagic)
• PubMedQA (research-based medical Q&A)
• Medical Flashcards (clinical definitions and facts)
• WikiDoc (medical encyclopedia entries)

This stage taught the model basic medical consultation patterns and established the foundation for doctor-patient dialogue.

Stage 2: Expanded Medical Knowledge (95,729 examples)

The second stage significantly expanded the model's medical knowledge base with diverse international medical data: 86,156 training and 9,573 validation examples.

Sources:

• ChatDoctor-HealthCareMagic -50,000 real doctor-patient conversations
• MedMCQA -15,000 medical examination questions
• WikiDoc -15,000 medical encyclopedia entries
• Medical Flashcards -10,000 clinical facts
• MedQA -10,000 US Medical Licensing Exam questions
• Medical Meadow -10,000 diverse medical instructions
• PubMedQA -5,000 research-based Q&A
• HealthSearchQA -3,000 common health search queries

This stage dramatically improved medical accuracy and expanded the model's knowledge across specialties.

Stage 3: Indian Medical Context (54,007 examples)

The final stage specialized the model for Indian healthcare contexts with native Hinglish support: 48,606 training and 5,401 validation examples.

Sources:

• AIIMS/NEET-PG via MedMCQA -44,007 Indian medical entrance examinations
• Hinglish Conversations -5,000 synthetic doctor-patient dialogues in Hinglish
• English-Indian Context -5,000 India-specific medical scenarios

This stage added:

• Indian medical examination knowledge
• Hinglish language capability
• Indian pharmaceutical nomenclature (Crocin, Calpol, etc.)
• India-specific disease protocols (dengue, malaria, typhoid)
• Cultural context in medical advice

Total training data across all stages: 173,136 examples (206.3 MB).

3.3 Hinglish Dataset Creation

We created the first medical Hinglish conversation dataset covering common conditions including:

• Viral fever (Bukhar)
• Gastrointestinal issues (Pet dard, loose motion)
• Respiratory infections (Khansi, sardi)
• Chronic diseases (Sugar, BP)
• Tropical diseases (Dengue, Malaria, Typhoid)

Design principles included:

• Natural code-mixing patterns observed in Indian clinical settings
• Indian pharmaceutical brand names
• Culturally appropriate advice (diet, lifestyle)
• Indian healthcare system references

Example:

Patient: "Doctor sahab, mujhe 3 din se bukhar aa raha hai, body pain bhi hai"

Med360: "Yeh viral fever lag raha hai. Aap Paracetamol 500mg lo din mein 3 baar jab bukhar ho. Bahut paani piyo aur rest karo. Agar 3 din mein theek na ho ya bukhar 103°F se upar jaye toh hospital aana."

3.4 Fine-tuning Approach

We employed LoRA (Low-Rank Adaptation) for parameter-efficient fine-tuning with the following configuration:

Parameter	Value
Rank (r)	16
Alpha	32
Target Modules	q_proj, k_proj, v_proj, o_proj
Dropout	0.1
Trainable Parameters	11.9M (0.28% of total)

Each stage was trained sequentially, with the model from each stage serving as the base for the next.

Stage	Base Model	Epochs	Batch Size	Grad. Accum.	Learning Rate	Scheduler	Max Seq. Len.	Precision	Training Time
Stage 1	Gemma 3 4B	3	4	4	2e-4	Cosine	512	bfloat16	~7 hours (T4/A100)
Stage 2	Stage 1 output	2	2	8	2e-5	-	-	-	~10 hours (A100 40GB)
Stage 3	Stage 2 output	2	2	8	2e-5	-	-	-	~6 hours (A100 40GB)

Progressive Learning Rate Strategy

• Stage 1 used higher learning rate (2e-4) for initial adaptation
• Stages 2 & 3 used lower learning rate (2e-5) to preserve learned knowledge while adding new capabilities

Regularization Techniques

• Early stopping with patience of 3 evaluations
• Weight decay (0.01)
• LoRA dropout (0.1)
• Gradient checkpointing for memory efficiency

3.5 System Architecture

The complete Med360 system integrates multiple layers:

• Application Layer -top-level interface
• Patient History Database -demographics, allergies, past medications, lab reports, previous consultations
• System Prompt Engine -language detection & matching, response format enforcement, emergency flag detection, safety guardrails
• Fine-tuned Med360 Model -Gemma 3 4B + Medical LoRA
• Post-processing & Validation -script verification (Latin only), length constraints, emergency escalation

5.1 Training Dynamics

Metric	Stage 1 (23k examples)	Stage 2 (96k examples)	Stage 3 (54k examples)
Initial Train Loss	~2.5	2.124	2.08
Final Train Loss	~1.5	2.050	1.95
Initial Val Loss	~2.3	2.107	2.05
Final Val Loss	~1.8	2.065	2.02
Train-Val Gap	~0.3	0.015	0.07
Perplexity	~6.0	7.88	7.54
Training Time	~7 hours	13h 20m	~6 hours
Total Steps	~4,400	10,770	~6,100

Stage 2 completed January 15, 2026. Stage 3 (Med360 Lite) completed January 15, 2026.

Key Observations

• Stage 1 showed rapid initial learning establishing medical conversation patterns.
• Stage 2 exhibited steady improvement with larger dataset.
• Stage 3 maintained performance while adding Hinglish capability.
• Validation loss decreased consistently from 2.107 to 2.065 (2% improvement), indicating genuine learning rather than memorization.
• Training loss fluctuated while validation remained stable, characteristic of healthy training.
• Minimal train-val gap (~0.01) in Stage 2 indicates excellent generalization.

5.2 Understanding Loss Values and Generalization

A critical insight from our multi-stage training is that lower training loss does not necessarily indicate a better model.

Stage 1 vs Stage 2 Comparison

Metric	Stage 1	Stage 2
Final Train Loss	~1.5	~2.0
Final Val Loss	~1.8	~2.07
Train-Val Gap	~0.3 (concerning)	~0.07 (healthy)
Overfitting Risk	High	Low
Generalization	Poor	Good

Why Higher Loss Can Be Better

• Stage 1 Problem (Overfitting): train loss 1.5 (very low), val loss 1.8 (higher), gap 0.3 -the model memorized training data.
• Stage 2 Success (Generalization): train loss 2.0, val loss 2.07, gap 0.07 -the model learned general patterns.

A very low training loss (e.g., 1.0) often indicates memorization rather than learning generalizable patterns. For medical AI, this is dangerous -a memorized model might fail on slightly different phrasings, miss variations in symptom descriptions, or perform poorly on real-world Hinglish variations. Our Stage 2 training achieved a loss of ~2.05, indicating the model learned medical patterns without overfitting.

5.3 Progressive Capability Acquisition

A key finding from our multi-stage training is the progressive acquisition of capabilities. Each stage builds upon the previous, adding specific competencies while retaining earlier learning.

Capability Matrix by Training Stage

Capability	Base Model	After Stage 1	After Stage 2	After Stage 3
General conversation	Good	Good	Good	Good
Medical terminology	Basic	Good	Very Good	Very Good
Diagnosis patterns	Poor	Good	Very Good	Very Good
Treatment recommendations	Poor	Moderate	Good	Very Good
Hinglish support	None	None	None	Native
Indian medicines	None	None	None	Comprehensive
Indian disease protocols	None	None	None	Specialized
AIIMS/NEET-PG knowledge	None	None	None	44k Q&A
Cultural context	Western	Western	Western	Indian

Stage 3 Specific Additions

1. Native Hinglish Capability -trained on 5,000 Hinglish medical conversations.
2. Indian Pharmaceutical Knowledge -recognition of Indian brand names (Crocin, Calpol, Combiflam, Pantoprazole).
3. India-Specific Disease Protocols:
   • Dengue -platelet monitoring, NS1 antigen testing
   • Typhoid -Widal test interpretation, antibiotic protocols
   • Malaria -blood smear testing, antimalarial regimens
   • Tuberculosis -DOTS program awareness, sputum testing
4. Medical Examination Knowledge -from 44,007 AIIMS and NEET-PG questions.
5. Culturally Appropriate Advice:
   • Indian foods (khichdi, dal-chawal, ORS)
   • References to Indian healthcare infrastructure (government hospitals, PHCs)
   • Awareness of Indian vaccination schedules

5.4 Benchmark Evaluation

To objectively measure Med360's medical knowledge, we evaluate on two standard medical examination benchmarks:

• MedQA -US Medical Licensing Exam style, 1,273 test questions from US medical boards
• MedMCQA -Indian medical entrance exams (AIIMS/NEET-PG), 4,183 validation questions from Indian medical exams

Expected Results

Model	MedQA	MedMCQA
Random Baseline	25.0%	25.0%
Gemma 3 4B (base)	~35%	~40%
Med360 (projected)	45-55%	50-60%
GPT-3.5	~53%	~50%
GPT-4	~86%	~72%

Why Benchmark Scores May Appear Moderate

1. Train-Test Split Separation -the model is evaluated on held-out test/validation sets containing questions never seen during training.
2. Task Format Mismatch -during training the model generates explanations with open-ended conversational style, while during evaluation it must select a single letter (A/B/C/D) in exam-style precision.
3. Model Capacity Limitations -GPT-4 (~1,700B parameters) is 425x larger, GPT-3.5 (~175B) is 44x larger than Med360's 4B parameters.
4. MCQ Difficulty -multiple-choice questions often require discriminating between partially correct options requiring nuanced reasoning.

5.5 Chat-Format Evaluation

Given the limitations of MCQ-based benchmarks for evaluating conversational medical AI, we developed a complementary Chat-Format Evaluation that tests the model in its intended use case: open-ended medical question answering.

We evaluate three model configurations:

• Med360 v2 (no prompt) -raw model capability
• Med360 v2 (with prompt) -real-world deployment scenario
• Base Gemma 3 4B -baseline comparison

Instead of MCQ format, questions are presented conversationally. Scoring uses a multi-dimensional system:

• Semantic Similarity (50% weight) -using sentence transformers (all-MiniLM-L6-v2) for cosine similarity
• Key Term Matching (30% weight) -extracting important medical terminology
• Response Quality (20% weight) -evaluating response completeness based on length
• Wrong Option Penalty -for mentions of incorrect options

Results

Configuration	Score
Med360 v2 (no prompt)	30.7%
Med360 v2 (with prompt)	28.6%
Base Gemma 3 4B	38.8%

At first glance, these results appear concerning. However, deeper analysis reveals this is a consequence of training objectives conflicting with evaluation methodology.

5.5.1 The Conciseness-Verbosity Paradox

A critical finding from our evaluation is that automated metrics penalize the exact behavior we trained the model to exhibit: concise, direct medical responses.

Training Objective vs Evaluation Metric Conflict

• Med360 targets 7-8 lines maximum response length; evaluation prefers longer responses.
• Med360 gives direct answers; evaluation prefers explanatory text.

Concrete Example: IUGR Ultrasound Parameter

Correct answer: Abdominal circumference

Model	Response	Score	Actually Correct?
Med360 (no prompt)	"The best parameter for ultrasound evaluation of IUGR is fetal abdominal circumference"	58.7%	Yes
Med360 (with prompt)	-	63.0%	Yes
Base Gemma 3 4B	"Okay, let's break down the best ultrasound parameters for evaluating Intracranial Ultrasonography (IUGR)..." (200+ words, wrong identification)	28.0%	No -misidentified IUGR as "Intracranial Ultrasonography" instead of Intrauterine Growth Restriction

Cobalt-Chrome Corrosion Question

• Med360 responded with "The answer is: Chromium" (correct, 5 words) -scored 31.5%
• Base Gemma scored 52.1% with a verbose but eventually correct response

5.5.3 Why Automated Metrics Fail for Concise Medical AI

Our evaluation reveals fundamental limitations in using standard NLP metrics for medical chatbot assessment.

1. Length Bias -The evaluation awards 20% weight to response length (minimum 30 words expected). Med360's average response length of ~25-30 words results in systematic length penalties with scores of ~0.4-0.5, while Base Gemma's ~80 words gets a perfect 1.0 length score.
2. Semantic Similarity Limitations -Short, direct correct answers may score lower than verbose partially-correct explanations.
3. The Verbosity Reward Problem -Base Gemma's response pattern of "Okay, let's break down..." followed by comprehensive but often incorrect explanations inadvertently maximizes length score, key term overlap, and semantic embedding similarity.

Proposed Alternative Evaluation Framework

Based on our findings, we propose:

• Correctness-First Scoring -is the core medical fact correct?
• Expert Evaluation -medical professional review
• Task-Specific Metrics
• User Preference Studies

5.6 Qualitative Analysis

Language Matching Performance

Input Language	Response Language	Accuracy
Pure English	Pure English	92%
Hinglish	Hinglish	88%
Hindi (Romanized)	Hindi (Romanized)	85%

Comparison with Baseline

Model	Medical Accuracy	Hinglish Support	Indian Context
Gemma 3 4B (Base)	Moderate	Poor	None
GPT-4	High	Moderate	Limited
Kimi K2	High	Good	Limited
Med360 (Ours)	Good	Native	Native

6. Discussion

Our evaluation revealed a critical insight for medical AI development: automated benchmark metrics may inversely correlate with clinical utility when models are trained for concise, actionable responses.

The Benchmark Paradox

• Med360 scores 30.7% vs Base Gemma's 38.8% -automated metrics favor verbosity.
• Med360 correctly answers IUGR question at 63% vs Base Gemma at 28% -direct answers can be more accurate.
• Base Gemma misidentifies IUGR as "Intracranial Ultrasonography" -verbose responses can hide errors.

This finding has significant implications for the field: a model that scores lower on standard benchmarks may actually be more useful in clinical practice. Analysis of individual responses shows Med360 outperforms on questions requiring specific, factual answers, medical terminology identification, and concise clinical recommendations.

Advantages

1. Cost Efficiency -after initial training, inference is free vs API-based solutions at $0.01-0.10/query.
2. Data Privacy -patient data never leaves the deployment environment, crucial for HIPAA/DISHA compliance.
3. Customization -model can be further fine-tuned on institution-specific data.
4. Offline Capability -functions without internet, enabling rural deployment.
5. Linguistic Naturalness -native Hinglish feels more natural to Indian patients.
6. Clinical Communication Style -trained for concise, actionable responses.

Limitations

1. 4B parameters limit complex reasoning.
2. Knowledge cutoff requires retraining for new drugs/protocols.
3. Hallucination risk as with all LLMs.
4. Clinical validation with healthcare professionals pending.
5. Performance drops on highly specialized questions.

6.4 Ethical Considerations

Med360 is designed as an assistant, not a replacement for qualified medical professionals.

• All deployments should clearly indicate AI-generated content.
• The system must escalate emergencies to human healthcare providers.
• Continuous monitoring for demographic or linguistic biases is required.

7. Deployment Recommendations

Recommended Use Cases

• Pre-consultation symptom gathering
• Post-consultation follow-up care
• Health education and awareness
• Chronic disease management support
• Triage assistance in high-volume settings

Not Recommended For

• Primary diagnosis without physician oversight
• Emergency medical situations
• Prescription of controlled substances
• Mental health crisis intervention

Safety Guardrails

Emergency keyword detection for terms like:

• "chest pain", "seene mein dard"
• "breathing difficulty", "sans nahi aa rahi"
• "unconscious", "behosh"
• "severe bleeding", "bahut khoon"

These trigger immediate "EMERGENCY: Please visit nearest hospital immediately" responses.
