Course Outline

Core Principles of Agentic AI in Healthcare

  • Distinguishing agentic systems from simple LLM tool applications
  • Defining autonomy limits, policies, and the role of human oversight
  • Navigating the healthcare data environment and associated constraints (EHR, FHIR, PHI)

Architecting Agent Workflows

  • Implementing planning, memory, tool utilisation, and reflection cycles
  • Prompt engineering, function/tool invocation, and action decision-making
  • Managing state and orchestration patterns

Developing Retrieval-Augmented Agents

  • Processing and chunking medical documents
  • Utilising embeddings, vector databases, and assessing relevance
  • Ensuring response accuracy through grounding and citation methods

Healthcare Integration and Interoperability

  • Fundamentals of FHIR/SMART for connecting agents
  • Handling structured and unstructured clinical data
  • Managing event streams, APIs, and audit logs

Safety, Risk Management, and Governance

  • Establishing guardrails, conducting red-teaming, and designing fail-safes
  • Managing PHI, de-identification processes, and access permissions
  • Integrating human-in-the-loop reviews and escalation procedures

Assessment and Monitoring

  • Performing offline evaluations, defining golden sets, and establishing KPIs
  • Detecting hallucinations and verifying factual accuracy
  • Ensuring observability, logging, and managing costs and latency

Deployment Strategies and Practical Lab

  • Choosing between API-based and on-premises models
  • Constructing a retrieval-augmented agent using LangChain, FastAPI, and ChromaDB
  • Simulating incident response and executing rollback procedures
