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?
