AI IN USE: Patient Journey Tracking

AI In Use: Patient Journey Tracking —

AI is transforming how life sciences executives understand and act on patient journeys. By integrating disparate real-world data (e.g. EHRs, claims, diagnostics, labs), AI can assemble complete timelines, revealing key intervention points, therapy switching patterns, and adherence risks. This article explores a five-stage pipeline, compliance considerations, and real-world use cases for optimizing therapy strategies, clinical trials, and patient engagement.

MCPs: THE AI BUILDING BLOCKS

Unraveling MCPs for Life Sciences

This article introduces Modular Component Pipelines (MCPs) as a foundational architecture for building scalable, transparent, and compliant LLM-powered systems in life sciences. Rather than relying on monolithic AI solutions, MCPs break down complex workflows into discrete, reusable components — such as data ingestion, normalization, prompt engineering, model routing, inference, validation, and feedback.

Key benefits include:

  • Agility to swap or update components independently

  • Transparency for regulatory compliance and quality assurance

  • Reusability across trials, therapeutic areas, or data types

The article highlights common MCP modules, shows how they enhance real-world data (RWD) workflows, and outlines high-impact use cases like patient timeline generation, trial matching, and literature surveillance. It makes the case that MCPs are essential to operationalize AI in life sciences — turning LLMs from experimental tools into enterprise-grade platforms.

Ario Health supports life sciences companies in designing and implementing MCP-based architectures to unlock the full potential of real-world data and generative AI.
