Course Outline

Foundations of Agentic AI in Healthcare

  • Distinguishing between Agentic systems and tool-only LLM applications
  • Defining autonomy limits, policy frameworks, and the role of human supervision
  • Navigating the healthcare data environment and its constraints (including EHR, FHIR, and PHI)

Designing Agent Workflows

  • Implementing planning, memory, tool usage, and reflection cycles
  • Applying prompt engineering, function/tool integration, and action selection strategies
  • Managing state and orchestration patterns for complex workflows

Retrieval-Augmented Agents

  • Processing and chunking medical documents for ingestion
  • Utilizing embeddings, vector stores, and evaluating relevance
  • Ensuring response grounding and employing effective citation strategies

Healthcare Integrations and Interoperability

  • Basics of FHIR/SMART standards for seamless agent connectivity
  • Handling both structured and unstructured clinical data effectively
  • Managing eventing, APIs, and maintaining comprehensive audit trails

Safety, Risk, and Governance

  • Implementing guardrails, conducting red-teaming, and designing fail-safes
  • Managing PHI, executing de-identification, and enforcing access controls
  • Establishing human-in-the-loop review processes and clear escalation paths

Evaluation and Monitoring

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

Deployment Patterns and Practical Lab

  • Comparing API-based versus on-premises model deployment options
  • Constructing a retrieval-augmented agent using LangChain, FastAPI, and ChromaDB
  • Simulating incident response scenarios and executing rollback procedures
