Topics that will be discussed are:
- What does "agentic AI" mean in a healthcare context, and how does it differ from traditional decision-support tools?
- What ethical tensions arise when AI agents begin to make or recommend autonomous decisions in patient care?
- What safeguards should be in place to prevent algorithmic bias or patient harm in remote care settings—especially when patients and providers are not co-located?
- When agentic AI goes wrong, who’s responsible, and how do we ensure accountability in cross-border virtual care?
- How can health systems build trust in agentic AI when the algorithms themselves may not be fully explainable—even by their creators?
- How are organizations operationalizing AI ethics beyond principles and into practice—especially when the tech moves faster than policy?
