AI in health tech

My background is in health tech and I was laid off last month after being with my org for over 7 years. I’m trying to get up to speed with AI and the ways it can be applied practically in my next role. I’m not talking about using it to automate ticket creation, PRDs or synthesizing feedback etc. I’m talking about agents and agentic AI Theres lots of opportunity in the healthcare space where I could see this concept automating complex workflows and genuinely adding value in ways that improve outcomes and quality and reduce costs

I’m seeing a ton of posts all over LinkedIn about how “easy” it is now to prototype and how you can set shit up with lovable, n8n, RAGS etc but it feels so unattainable in the healthcare space when all of the reference data we would need has PHI involved. Does anyone have experience building solutions using agentic AI in the healthcare operations context? How do you manage when it requires the use of PHI? As an example thinking about solutions that could help with care navigation and closing the referral loop.

Sorry if this is a ramble but like so many others I just feel so “behind” and I’m struggling to really figure out how realistic is it is to take advantage of this type of technology in the healthcare space.
