Healthcare & Life Sciences

AI consulting for healthcare.
Connected care and operations.

Explore healthcare applications and AI support for patient engagement, clinical information review, and operations. Define data access, integration, evaluation, and professional review around each workflow before implementation.

A care plan connects patient information to a care team review workspace.

AI use cases by industry

Explore where AI
can support the work.

Illustrative engagement opportunities, scoped around the systems, data, and professional responsibilities involved.

Virtual Patient Assistants

Scope symptom-check information gathering, appointment scheduling, and approved post-care guidance. Route clinical concerns to the care team and define clinician-reviewed content and escalation paths.

Clinical Decision Support Agents

Explore agentic AI to organize patient history, lab information, and research for qualified clinicians reviewing diagnostic and treatment-planning questions. Clinical interpretation and decisions remain with those professionals.

Operational Agents

Assist scheduling, inventory coordination, and insurance administration through scoped applications and workflows. Assign permissions and staff approval points for consequential changes and eligibility-related decisions.

Current developments · 2026

What is changing.
What to plan for.

Research reviewed October 27, 2026. Recent standards, research, and platform developments connected to practical project decisions.

DEVELOPMENT / 01

Interoperability is becoming the foundation for useful AI

ASTP/ONC's 2026 Interoperability Standards Advisory brings together standards for clinical, research, public-health and administrative exchange. It also distinguishes emerging specifications that still need pilot experience: choosing a standard is only the start of proving an integration works.

What this means for your project

Start a patient-assistant or research-data project with source-system mapping, terminology alignment, consent boundaries and integration testing. Give every generated answer a traceable connection to the records it is allowed to use.

DEVELOPMENT / 02

Prior authorization is moving toward connected workflows

The 2024 CMS interoperability rule has operational provisions applying in 2026 and API requirements generally beginning January 1, 2027 for impacted payers. These include FHIR-based information exchange and prior-authorization request and response workflows; this rule's prior-authorization provisions exclude drugs.

What this means for your project

A scoped pilot could assemble required documents, identify missing information and track request status across existing systems. Keep coverage and clinical decisions with authorized reviewers, and confirm which payer-specific dates and requirements apply before setting the delivery plan.

DEVELOPMENT / 03

Clinical GenAI needs evidence across its lifecycle

In August 2026, FDA opened a discussion on how generative AI-enabled medical devices could be assessed before use and monitored afterward. The discussion paper explores risk assessment, evaluation and postmarket monitoring; it is not draft or final guidance and does not establish new policy.

What this means for your project

Separate administrative assistance from functions that could influence diagnosis or treatment. For a proposed clinical product, define intended use, failure cases, clinical oversight, evaluation evidence and a monitoring plan with the appropriate clinical and regulatory specialists.

Source dates indicate publication or last update. Drafts, regional examples, and product announcements are identified in context. The project implications are Isospins’ recommendations for scoping an engagement.

Discuss a first project
FIRST PROJECT / EXAMPLE

Improve one patient or staff handoff

Prototype an appointment or intake workflow using synthetic information. Connect approved guidance to a staff review queue and test escalation before considering live integrations.

What we need to begin
A workflow owner, approved content, synthetic examples, interface requirements, and clinical review where relevant.
What to evaluate
Task completion, information accuracy, accessibility, appropriate escalation, and staff review effort.
What to take forward
A workflow prototype, integration map, evaluation findings, and a staged implementation proposal.

Connect the use case
to a practical plan.

Start by mapping the workflow, its users, and the information that needs to move. Then identify a useful prototype, the evaluation criteria, and the responsibilities for implementation and operation.

Combine AI strategy, machine learning, generative AI, data engineering, and cloud integration around the needs of this industry.

Before we begin

Better questions.
A stronger brief.

Bring these questions to the first conversation. We can work through the unknowns together.

Start a conversation
  1. 01

    Which EHR, payer or research systems hold the information, and what permissions govern each connection?

  2. 02

    Is the proposed workflow administrative support, clinical decision support or a potential medical-device function?

  3. 03

    Who reviews exceptions, and what evidence would demonstrate that the pilot improves the workflow safely?
