Region 9 HFMA: The Anatomy of AI Agents - What They Are, How They Work, and Why They Matter

AI agents don’t come with arms, legs, or eyes—but they do have something even better: the ability to think, reason, and act. As generative AI continues to evolve, so do the capabilities of AI agents—autonomous systems that can interact with applications, extract and apply knowledge, and make decisions based on context. In this episode, from a Region 9 HFMA Texas webinar, Stuart Newsome, CPCO, VP of RCM Insights, Infinx, breaks down the "anatomy" of AI agents—not to teach biology, but to show how these invisible workers are transforming how healthcare organizations operate behind the scenes. From data-grabbing fingers to decision-making brains, we’ll explore what powers these agents, how they collaborate, and why revenue cycle leaders are putting them to work across their digital ecosystems.Brought to you by www.infinx.com
