iFLYTEK Healthcare announced on October 22 that it has completed a full upgrade of its Spark medical large model to version 3.7. The company says the new version combines speech, medical imaging and language understanding more deeply, which makes the model more capable of acting as an agent in clinical settings. iFLYTEK Healthcare also says V3.7 scored 99.6 on MedBench 5.0, the medical evaluation run by the Shanghai Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, and stayed at the top of the leaderboard. The score is the company's own report.
The upgrade feeds into several of the company's products. For its AI clinical assistant, the rate of reasonable medical records generated by the system has risen to 85 percent, according to iFLYTEK Healthcare. The company says this strengthens its position in primary-care general practice. Its cloud imaging service has upgraded report generation and quality control for hospital imaging departments. AI patient management uses the stronger multimodal and evidence-based reasoning to make follow-up visits smarter and patient profiles more accurate. The company's consumer health-consultation assistant now keeps a dynamic memory of health records, which moves it from one-off questions toward ongoing health management.
The company now organizes its business into three areas: an AI clinical assistant, an AI health assistant and an AI digital foundation for medical institutions. It says the upgraded model is meant to support deployment at scale across all three.
iFLYTEK Healthcare gave several usage figures. Its primary-care clinical assistant covers 31 provincial-level regions and 828 districts and counties and serves more than 77,000 grassroots medical institutions. It has given more than 1.2 billion AI-assisted diagnostic suggestions and helped generate more than 490 million standardized electronic medical records. In Anhui, the cloud imaging platform now connects every public hospital in the province and has collected more than 160 million imaging studies, and the service has expanded to Guangxi and Ningxia. The consumer health assistant has handled more than 220 million AI consultations.
The release shows how medical models in China are moving from single-turn question answering toward multimodal agents built into clinical workflows, especially in primary care, where doctor shortages are most acute. All benchmark and usage figures are company-reported.
