Agents · Supervised digital workforce

Healthcare agent squads, by domain.

Agents organised by the eight domains of the healthcare value chain. They gather the record, draft the summary, the order, the claim reply or the bed proposal; clinicians and named owners decide. Every proposal is validated by the server, every action waits for a person to confirm, and every step is audited.

These are agent designs from our AI & Agentic Engineering practice. Agents marked with a demo link mirror working modules in the Hospital 360 (Healthcare-in-a-Box) demo, which runs on synthetic data and needs a demo sign-in. The live agent-run demo on this site runs on banking data; the same controls apply. Anything clinical stays at Suggest or below: clinicians always decide.
