AI Clinical Workflow Infrastructure
Grounded Clinical AI with FHIR Citations, Guardrails, and Evaluation
Overview
CodeBricks built a grounded clinical AI workflow implementation that answers questions from synthetic FHIR patient records. The system retrieves relevant resources, constrains the model to the available context, and shows citations for every answer. It also includes an evaluation page and audit log, demonstrating the engineering discipline required for healthcare AI beyond a generic chatbot wrapper.
The Challenge
Healthcare AI proof-of-concepts often look impressive at first, but many fail under technical review because the model answers without evidence. In a clinical setting, an unsupported answer is risky and difficult to trust. The core problem is how to let a clinician ask useful questions about a patient record while keeping the model grounded in actual FHIR data, refusing when information is missing, and leaving an audit trail that engineering and clinical teams can review.
Research & Strategy
We separated the clinical UI from the retrieval and answering layer. Synthetic Synthea FHIR bundles load into a local index; each question triggers intent classification and retrieval of only the most relevant Patient, Observation, Condition, MedicationRequest, AllergyIntolerance, Encounter, and Procedure resources. The LLM receives a constrained prompt built from that context alone, returns answers with resource-level citations, and logs every interaction. An evaluation harness with negative-control questions measures pass/fail behavior before production handoff.
