Next-generation agentic AI for transforming healthcare

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming the healthcare landscape, yet many current applications remain narrowly task-specific, constrained by data complexity and inherent biases. This paper explores the emergence of next generation "agentic AI" systems, characterized by advanced autonomy, adaptability, scalability, and probabilistic reasoning, which address critical challenges in medical management. These systems enhance various aspects of healthcare, including diagnostics, clinical decision support, treatment planning, patient monitoring, administrative operations, drug discovery, and robotic-assisted surgery. Powered by multimodal AI, agentic systems integrate diverse data sources, iteratively refine…
