Course Outline

Foundational Principles of Agentic AI in Healthcare

  • Distinguishing agentic systems from simple tool-using LLM applications
  • Defining autonomy limits, policy frameworks, and human oversight roles
  • Navigating the healthcare data ecosystem and its constraints (EHR, FHIR, PHI)

Architecting Agent Workflows

  • Integrating planning, memory, tool usage, and reflective feedback loops
  • Advanced prompt engineering, function/tool selection, and decision-making processes
  • Implementing state management and orchestration patterns

Developing Retrieval-Augmented Agents

  • Ingesting and structuring medical documents for effective chunking
  • Utilizing embeddings, vector stores, and assessing relevance
  • Ensuring response grounding and developing robust citation strategies

Healthcare Integration and Interoperability

  • Applying FHIR and SMART standards for seamless agent connectivity
  • Processing both structured and unstructured clinical data efficiently
  • Managing eventing, API interactions, and maintaining audit trails

Safety, Risk Management, and Governance

  • Implementing guardrails, conducting red-team exercises, and designing fail-safes
  • Handling PHI with proper de-identification and access control protocols
  • Establishing human-in-the-loop review processes and escalation pathways

Performance Evaluation and Monitoring

  • Conducting offline evaluations, defining golden sets, and establishing KPIs
  • Detecting hallucinations and verifying factual accuracy
  • Managing observability, logging, and optimizing cost and latency

Deployment Strategies and Practical Laboratory

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

Conclusions and Future Pathways
