Course Outline

Foundations of Agentic AI for Healthcare

  • Distinctions between agentic systems and tool-only LLM applications
  • Defining autonomy boundaries, policies, and human oversight
  • Understanding the healthcare data landscape and its constraints (EHR, FHIR, PHI)

Designing Agent Workflows

  • Integrating planning, memory, tool use, and reflection loops
  • Prompt engineering, function/tool integration, and action selection
  • Managing state and applying orchestration patterns

Retrieval-Augmented Agents

  • Ingesting and chunking medical documents
  • Utilizing embeddings, vector stores, and relevance evaluation
  • Grounding responses and implementing citation strategies

Healthcare Integrations and Interoperability

  • Basics of FHIR/SMART for agent connectivity
  • Working with structured and unstructured clinical data
  • Eventing, APIs, and maintaining audit trails

Safety, Risk, and Governance

  • Implementing guardrails, red-teaming, and fail-safe design
  • Handling PHI, de-identification, and access controls
  • Human-in-the-loop review and escalation paths

Evaluation and Monitoring

  • Conducting offline evaluations, using golden sets, and defining KPIs
  • Detecting hallucinations and performing factuality checks
  • Ensuring observability, logging, and managing cost/latency

Deployment Patterns and Hands-on Lab

  • Comparing API-based versus on-prem model choices
  • Building a retrieval-augmented agent using LangChain, FastAPI, and ChromaDB
  • Simulated incident response and rollback procedures
