Course Outline

Foundations of Agentic AI in Healthcare

  • Distinguishing agentic systems from tool-only LLM applications.
  • Defining autonomy limits, governance policies, and human supervision roles.
  • Navigating the healthcare data ecosystem and its constraints, such as EHR, FHIR, and PHI.

Designing Agent Workflows

  • Implementing planning, memory, tool usage, and reflection cycles.
  • Applying prompt engineering, function calling, and action selection strategies.
  • Managing state and establishing orchestration patterns.

Retrieval-Augmented Agents

  • Ingesting and segmenting medical documents for effective processing.
  • Utilizing embeddings, vector stores, and relevance assessment techniques.
  • Ensuring response grounding and developing citation methodologies.

Healthcare Integrations and Interoperability

  • Fundamentals of FHIR and SMART for enabling agent connectivity.
  • Handling structured and unstructured clinical data effectively.
  • Managing event streams, APIs, and maintaining comprehensive audit trails.

Safety, Risk, and Governance

  • Implementing guardrails, red-teaming strategies, and fail-safe design principles.
  • Managing PHI through de-identification and strict access controls.
  • Establishing human-in-the-loop reviews and clear escalation pathways.

Evaluation and Monitoring

  • Conducting offline evaluations, defining golden sets, and establishing KPIs.
  • Detecting hallucinations and performing rigorous factuality checks.
  • Enhancing observability, logging, and managing cost and latency.

Deployment Patterns and Practical Laboratory

  • Comparing API-based solutions versus on-premise model deployments.
  • Developing a retrieval-augmented agent using LangChain, FastAPI, and ChromaDB.
  • Simulating incident response and executing rollback procedures.
