LLM-generated summaries achieve a 10th-grade readability level and high-quality ratings. While LLM-generated lifestyle recommendations are generally of high quality, personalization is limited. These findings suggest that LLMs could help create more patient-centric discharge summaries. Further research is needed to confirm clinical utility and address quality assurance, regulatory compliance, and clinical integration challenges.
