Course Outline

Agentic AI Fundamentals for Healthcare

  • Distinguishing agentic systems from tool-only LLM applications.
  • Defining autonomy limits, policies, and human oversight roles.
  • Navigating the healthcare data environment and constraints (EHR, FHIR, PHI).

Architecting Agent Workflows

  • Integrating planning, memory, tool usage, and reflective loops.
  • Applying prompt engineering, function/tool integration, and action selection.
  • Implementing state management and orchestration strategies.

Retrieval-Augmented Agents

  • Ingesting and segmenting medical documentation.
  • Utilizing embeddings, vector databases, and relevance assessment.
  • Grounding responses and employing citation methodologies.

Healthcare Integration and Interoperability

  • Foundational FHIR/SMART principles for agent connectivity.
  • Processing structured and unstructured clinical data.
  • Managing events, APIs, and audit trails.

Safety, Risk Management, and Governance

  • Implementing guardrails, red-teaming, and fail-safe designs.
  • Managing PHI, de-identification, and access control.
  • Establishing human-in-the-loop review and escalation procedures.

Evaluation and Monitoring

  • Conducting offline assessments, defining golden sets, and establishing KPIs.
  • Detecting hallucinations and verifying factual accuracy.
  • Managing observability, logging, and cost/latency optimization.

Deployment Strategies and Practical Lab

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