2026-09-07 Taiwan AI Cloud Corporation Enables Secure, On-Premises Pharmaceutical AI Agent with ASRock Industrial AI BOX-A395
Background
AI is creating new opportunities in healthcare, but deploying AI in hospitals requires more than model performance. Healthcare organizations need AI solutions that can protect sensitive patient data, deliver reliable and explainable insights, and operate seamlessly within existing IT environments. Taiwan AI Cloud has developed its Pharmaceutical AI Agent to address these requirements. By combining Taiwan AI Cloud’s AFS AI Hub with the ASRock Industrial AI BOX-A395, the solution enables AI-powered medication safety analysis to run entirely on-premises. This allows hospitals and pharmacists to leverage advanced AI for medication safety while keeping sensitive prescription and patient data within their own network, helping transition AI from experimental concepts into practical clinical workflows.
Challenge
As Taiwan transitions into a super-aged society, medication management is becoming increasingly complex. Patients often take multiple medications prescribed by different healthcare providers, making medication safety review more challenging and time-consuming. At the same time, healthcare organizations need reliable AI assistance without compromising the privacy of sensitive patient data.
Key challenges include:
- Polypharmacy Increases Medication Risks: Patients taking multiple medications face greater risks of drug interactions, duplicate medications, inappropriate dosages, and other medication-related complications.
- Fragmented Medication Histories: Patients may receive prescriptions from multiple physicians and healthcare institutions, making it difficult to maintain a comprehensive view of their medication history.
- Time-Consuming Medication Reviews: Healthcare professionals need to evaluate drug interactions, dosage appropriateness, contraindications, duplicate medications, and patient-specific factors before making treatment decisions.
- Data Privacy and On-Premises AI Requirements: Sensitive prescription and patient data should not be transferred to public cloud services, creating a need for secure AI solutions that operate locally within healthcare environments.
Solution
Taiwan AI Cloud has deployed its Pharmaceutical AI Agent on the ASRock Industrial AI BOX-A395, creating a fully on-premises AI platform for medication safety applications. Integrated with the AFS AI Hub and the solution uses OCR and multimodal AI to analyze prescription information and execute 28 medication safety checks, covering drug interactions, dosage appropriateness, contraindications, duplicate medications, and other clinical safety factors.
Before recommendations are generated, healthcare professionals can review the information extracted from prescriptions. The AI Agent then combines the analyzed prescription data with trusted medication references to generate reliable and traceable medication safety insights. In an evaluation of 30 physician- and pharmacist-designed clinical scenarios, the Pharmaceutical AI Agent achieved 92.4% Answer Correctness and 90% Faithfulness, demonstrating the accuracy and reference-grounded nature of its recommendations. In a field evaluation involving 11 physicians and pharmacists across healthcare settings of varying sizes, the solution achieved an overall satisfaction score of 4.5 out of 5, highlighting its strong real-world usability.
