✨ What should clinicians expect and not expect from agentic AI in healthcare?

Recently our CEO, Isaac Park spoke with Medical Economics and shared his thoughts on agentic AI, what it means, where it’s useful, and why trust and transparency will make or break its adoption in healthcare.

You should really watch the whole thing, but if you need convincing, here are some highlights:

– Agentic AI in healthcare should be a tool, not a replacement.
No one wants AI to replace clinicians. But clinicians who can harness AI to lighten their workload and deliver even better care? That’s a future worth investing in.

“Like any tool in the hands of a good human, it’s going to go really far. In the hands of the less qualified human, it probably won’t matter as much.”

– Start with low-risk, high-impact areas.
Agentic AI has real promise in repetitive admin tasks — think scheduling, EHR data extraction, and documentation support.

“Where the consequence of a particular result is extremely high, like in healthcare, you generally don’t want to rely on just an agent alone process.”

– Trust is everything.
At Keebler, we believe clear guardrails, transparency, and expert validation are non-negotiable to earn clinician trust and truly support care teams.

“Trust is slowly earned but quickly lost. As purveyors of AI technology, you really only have a few shots at establishing that trust and establishing it well”

-Looking ahead?
Expect lots of small, well-scoped AI assistants that do one job really well, amplifying human expertise, not replacing it.

At Keebler Health, this is the AI future we’re building towards: safe, transparent, physician-empowering technology that keeps people at the center.
