Course Outline

Foundations of Agentic AI for Healthcare

  • Distinguishing agentic systems from tool-only LLM applications
  • Defining autonomy boundaries, policies, and mechanisms for human oversight
  • Navigating the healthcare data landscape and its constraints (EHR, FHIR, PHI)

Designing Agent Workflows

  • Implementing planning, memory, tool use, and reflection loops
  • Utilizing prompt engineering, functions/tools, and action selection strategies
  • Applying state management and orchestration patterns

Retrieval-Augmented Agents

  • Ingesting and chunking medical documents
  • Working with embeddings, vector stores, and evaluating relevance
  • Strategies for grounding responses and providing citations

Healthcare Integrations and Interoperability

  • Fundamentals of FHIR/SMART for agent connectivity
  • Managing structured and unstructured clinical data
  • Utilizing eventing, APIs, and maintaining audit trails

Safety, Risk, and Governance

  • Implementing guardrails, red-teaming, and fail-safe designs
  • Handling PHI, de-identification techniques, and access controls
  • Establishing human-in-the-loop review processes and escalation paths

Evaluation and Monitoring

  • Conducting offline evaluations, utilizing golden sets, and defining KPIs
  • Detecting hallucinations and verifying factuality
  • Ensuring observability, logging, and managing costs/latency

Deployment Patterns and Hands-on Lab

  • Comparing API-based versus on-premises model options
  • Building a retrieval-augmented agent using LangChain, FastAPI, and ChromaDB
  • Practicing simulated incident response and rollback procedures
