Top 10 AI Prompts and Use Cases and in the Healthcare Industry in Ukraine

Clear, context-aware AI prompts are the linchpin for turning powerful models into practical tools in Ukraine's health system: a recent analysis of the impact of artificial intelligence on Ukrainian medicine (Futurity Medicine) shows AI can personalise care and improve complex decision-making but also brings risks that demand careful design, data protection and human oversight - not just code.

Local innovation is already scaling: the EIT HEI digital test bed for AI in health technology work is building a digital test bed so students and startups can prototype clinical AI despite wartime disruptions, with teams sometimes connecting from basements or subway shelters to keep projects moving.

For clinicians, prompt-writing is a practical, learnable skill - Nucamp's AI Essentials for Work bootcamp teaches prompt craft and workplace AI use so health workers can safely translate local needs into reliable AI outputs.

“The future of health is digital. Here we have gathered young minds to be among those who are now shaping it,” said Dr Hans Henri P. Kluge.

Selection for this Top 10 combined practical evidence, expert synthesis, and Ukraine-specific workflow realities: priority was given to prompts that map to data‑rich, high‑volume tasks where AI already shows early gains (for example, imaging and automated alerts described in Futurity's overview of AI in medicine), to categories highlighted in recent comprehensive reviews of clinical AI, and to interventions that can plug into digital public services and Diia‑enabled workflows that are accelerating care in Ukraine.

Sources included peer‑reviewed syntheses and expert interview studies to gauge both clinical promise and implementation barriers (data quality, privacy, human oversight), so each entry balances likely impact, technical readiness, and safety guardrails - echoing Futurity's point that AI should assist clinicians (think an EKG or image flag that draws attention to a “smoldering fire” patient) rather than replace judgement.

The final list was organized by clinical pathway (triage → diagnosis → treatment → follow‑up → administration), with an eye to what can realistically scale in Ukrainian settings using existing digital infrastructure and workforce upskilling described in regional guides to AI adoption.

Radiology report generation and triage is a high‑leverage use case in Ukraine because well‑crafted prompts can turn image reads into rapid, standardized clinical alerts that free radiologists for the hardest cases; prompt libraries such as the Radiology AI prompt library for chest X‑ray and CT scan analysis show ready‑made prompts for chest X‑ray interpretation, CT scan analysis, structured voice‑to‑report generation and concise report summarization that speed throughput without inventing conclusions (Radiology AI prompt library for chest X‑ray and CT scan analysis).

In practice, clear prompt templates can flag a smoldering fire patient - an urgent pneumothorax or evolving consolidation - and feed a tidy, human‑reviewable draft into hospital systems or Diia‑enabled digital workflows to shorten decision time and administrative lag (AI for medical imaging in Ukraine - 2025 complete guide; Diia-enabled digital workflows for Ukrainian healthcare efficiency).

These tools work best when paired with local prompt tuning, clear data governance, and clinician oversight so machine speed directly improves bedside safety and referral accuracy rather than replacing judgement.

In inpatient settings where every minute counts, carefully crafted clinical decision support prompts can turn scattered EHR data into a single, evidence‑linked assessment and plan that clinicians can review and act on - Glass's CDS features show how a consult mode can produce organized, citation‑backed differentials, problem‑oriented Dx/Tx bullets, and discharge summaries that preserve the chart while making next steps explicit (Glass Health clinical decision support features).

In Ukraine these capabilities pair naturally with Diia‑enabled digital workflows to speed authorizations and reduce administrative friction, so a busy ward can move from fragmented notes to a focused “A&P with inline references” that flags “can't miss” diagnoses and suggests targeted labs or imaging for fast escalation (Diia-enabled digital workflows for healthcare authorizations in Ukraine).

Prompt engineering and staff training are essential: templates that specify output format, evidence citations, and when to invoke deeper reasoning help avoid hallucinations and keep human oversight central, echoing practical guidance on clinical prompt design and governance (prompt engineering best practices for clinical healthcare).

The payoff is practical and memorable - fewer hours spent hunting through notes and more time on the bedside decision that actually changes outcomes.

An outpatient triage chatbot or symptom checker tailored for Ukraine can act like a reliable first‑responder at scale: by encoding WHO's Interagency Integrated Triage Tool (IITT) logic - the familiar red/yellow/green acuity flags - a well‑designed prompt can sort callers and portal users by urgency, surface “red” patients for immediate human review, and push structured referrals into local Diia‑enabled digital workflows so authorizations and appointments move without paper delays; see WHO Interagency Integrated Triage Tool (IITT) guidance and posters.

For mental health and behavioral crises the model is already practical: outpatient psychiatry triage lines that review referrals and offer rapid slots show how a triage layer can reduce emergency visits while linking people to short‑term support (Seattle Children's behavioral health crisis care outpatient psychiatry triage clinic), and in Ukraine this dovetails with efforts to speed authorizations and cut admin overhead via digital workflows (Diia‑enabled digital workflows for Ukraine healthcare).

The key is pragmatic prompt design: structured symptom intake, scripted escalation rules tied to IITT acuity, multilingual UI (Ukrainian included), and a clear human‑in‑the‑loop handoff so the chatbot saves time without sacrificing safety - imagine a color‑coded alert that turns hours of phone tag into an immediate clinician triage, freeing staff to focus on patients who truly need hands‑on care.

“To be surrounded by such knowledge, information and expertise was a tremendous relief. They made the system more manageable. It gave us fast and furious access to services and psychologists.”

A clear, machine‑friendly discharge summary and patient instruction sheet can be the difference between a smooth home recovery and an avoidable readmission in Ukraine's busy hospitals: structured templates that capture patient identifiers, concise hospital course, a categorized medication list, and plain‑language after‑visit instructions are core (see Heidi's practical Heidi Health discharge summary template with examples).

Pairing those templates with Diia‑enabled digital workflows lets teams auto‑send summaries, schedule follow‑ups, and populate referrals so a primary care doctor or community nurse receives the right data the moment the patient leaves the ward (Diia-enabled digital workflows for Ukrainian healthcare).

Where time is scarce, AI scribes and summary tools can auto‑populate meds, pending results, and follow‑up tasks from the chart - freeing clinicians to review and add the human nuances patients need - and Simbie's examples show how tailored templates reduce errors and readmissions (Simbie AI sample discharge summaries and templates).

Make instructions bite‑sized and local: Ukrainian language, clear return‑precautions, and a color‑coded next‑step (urgent / routine) that a GP can scan in seconds ensure the discharge note actually helps the patient rather than piling onto paperwork.

“Discharge planning starts at the beginning,” says Abby Gagerman.

EHR summarization prompts can turn cluttered charts into crisp, specialist‑ready referral letters that actually move patients through Ukraine's system instead of trapping them in paperwork: by using standardized templates, automated data capture, and real‑time communication a prefilled referral can carry the reason for referral, key meds, recent imaging and “can't‑miss” flags in a single scannable page so a consultant knows what to order before the patient arrives.

Best practices - like those summarized in Medsender's guide to the EHR referral process - recommend real‑time messaging, template pre‑population, and automated outreach (two‑way texting can raise scheduling completion), while centralizing inbound referrals and AI classification can queue the urgent cases first as Forcura describes; pairing these tools with Diia‑enabled digital workflows in Ukraine helps send the right data to the right clinic instantly.

Evidence from implementation guides shows automatic referral rules can dramatically raise referral rates (AHRQ's TAKEheart resources report big gains when referrals are automated), making the humble referral letter a high‑impact, low‑friction lever for better specialist care.

“Our referral tracking module is robust; it allows us to make sure our patients are getting the care they need, get results back in real time, interface with a hospital, and receive results directly back into IMS.”

Medication reconciliation and interaction checking are a practical, high‑impact place to start using AI prompts in Ukraine's hospitals: AHRQ's MATCH toolkit stresses a single, shared

one source of truth

medication list, clear role definitions, and timely prompts at admission, transfer and discharge to make the right thing the easy thing - AI can power those prompts, surface likely discrepancies, and flag dangerous interactions so clinicians spend seconds confirming instead of hours hunting through notes (AHRQ MATCH medication reconciliation toolkit).

Tools that integrate with Diia‑enabled digital workflows can auto‑populate a reconciled list, push verification tasks to nurses or pharmacists, and send the updated plan to primary care or community pharmacists before the patient leaves the ward, cutting admin friction and missed handoffs (Diia-enabled digital healthcare workflows in Ukraine).

Keep patients central - asking them to carry an up‑to‑date medication list in their wallet and building human‑in‑the‑loop checks into prompts reduces omissions and ensures AI suggestions translate into safer, actionable bedside decisions; as PM&R notes, early AI reconciliation pilots can clean conflicting histories but still require patient interviews and clear responsibilities to be effective (PM&R review of AI-assisted medication reconciliation).

Predictive risk stratification - using AI prompts to flag patients at high risk of readmission or sepsis - can be a force multiplier for Ukraine's strained hospitals: models trained on rich EHR features can convert messy charts into an actionable risk score that routes patients to timed follow‑up, pharmacist review, or a Community Nursing visit, rather than leaving them to fall through paperwork cracks.

Recent work shows graph convolutional networks achieved strong discrimination for 6‑month heart‑failure readmission (AUC ~0.83) and high specificity, illustrating how complex relational data (labs, comorbidity, meds) can improve targeting; however, those models were developed on a Chinese hospital cohort and therefore need local tuning, simpler feature sets, and prospective validation before rollout in Ukraine.

Practical next steps here are pragmatic: pilot a risk‑flag workflow that pushes high‑risk patients into Diia‑enabled scheduling or outreach, pair AI scores with clear human‑in‑the‑loop checks, and invest in frontline data literacy so clinicians can interpret SHAP‑style explanations rather than treating the score as gospel.

In short, predictive prompts can turn a 6‑month probability into a color‑coded bedside task that prevents avoidable returns to hospital - if adapted, validated, and governed for Ukraine's context (JMIR Medical Informatics 2024 readmission prediction study using graph convolutional networks; Diia-enabled scheduling and digital health workflows in Ukraine).

Personalized care plans and clear rehabilitation pathways are a practical superpower for Ukraine's strained system: AI prompts can help stitch together the new modular primary care clinics - installed in 10–14 days with generators and a projected lifespan of over ten years - with specialist rehab centers and ongoing telehealth follow‑up so patients move from acute care to recovery without getting lost in paperwork.

Concrete building blocks already exist on the ground - 12 modular clinics installed in 2024 to serve communities across Kharkiv, Odesa, Kherson and more (EEAS and WHO report on 12 modular clinics installed in Ukraine (2024)) - while mobility of advanced imaging and monitoring (the Philips-supported C‑arm and mobile monitors) has directly improved surgical outcomes and enabled faster rehabilitation planning (Philips update on providing care for victims of war in Ukraine (2024)).

Telehealth programs like Telehelp Ukraine show how remote appointments, interpreters, and repeat visits can sustain rehab trajectories after discharge, and prompts that auto‑schedule follow‑ups and surface needed equipment or community nursing visits can turn a fragile recovery into a predictable care pathway (Telehelp Ukraine telehealth program overview (Stanford Medicine)).

The payoff is simple: a patient who leaves surgery with a clear, time‑stamped plan and an arranged televisit is far less likely to slip into avoidable disability.

“These modular clinics are being installed in regions heavily impacted by the war, where healthcare facilities have been damaged. The Ministry of Health, WHO, and our partners are committed to ensuring that Ukrainians can access the healthcare they need. In 2024, 12 modular clinics were installed, which are expected to serve around 50,000 patients across various regions of Ukraine.” - Viktor Lyashko, Minister of Health of Ukraine

AI-powered clinical trial matching can bridge Ukraine's untapped research potential by turning messy EHRs and registry searches into near-instant eligibility screens: trial matching engines have cut pre‑screening time by about 90% in test runs and, when paired with EHR one‑button tools like Blue‑button, can surface relevant oncology and specialty trials to clinicians and patients without days of manual sifting (AI-powered clinical trial matching (Clinical Trials Arena); Blue‑button EHR-integrated clinical trial matching for cancer patients (FightCancer.org)).

In Ukraine this capability is especially promising because local strengths - harmonized EU‑aligned regulation, a large network of accredited sites, and an active State Expert Centre - mean sponsors can move from match to enrolment more smoothly; practical guidance on approvals and timelines is summarized in country primers that describe statutory review windows and contracting processes (Clinical trial approvals and timelines in Ukraine (Biomapas)).

Complementing matching, the Ukraine Association of Biobank offers de‑identified biospecimens linked to clinical and pathology data that can inform feasibility briefs and investigator‑initiated studies, while human oversight, data standardisation and strict privacy safeguards remain non‑negotiable to keep matches safe and actionable (Ukraine Association of Biobank biospecimens and data (Biobanking.com)).

“It's just a clinical decision-making tool and not a clinical decision maker.”

Administrative automation - coding, billing, and routine reports - offers a fast win for Ukraine's hospitals if prompts and models are chosen with care: the ICD‑10‑CM space alone counts roughly 70–75,000 assignable codes, so automating entity extraction and mapping can stop coders from hunting through a paper trail and instead surface likely codes for quick human review.

Evidence favors domain‑tuned pipelines over general chat models: John Snow Labs' head‑to‑head found Spark NLP for Healthcare correctly assigned 38 of 50 ICD‑10 problems (76% success) while GPT‑3.5 and GPT‑4 lagged (overall accuracies ~26% and ~36% respectively), and examples showed general LLMs sometimes fabricate or partially‑wrong codes.

Strategic hybrids work best in practice - use specialized NLP or a tree‑search prompt strategy to traverse ICD hierarchies (as explored in the LLM‑guided tree‑search research) while keeping a clinician or coder in the loop, enforcing on‑prem or privacy‑compliant deployment, and piping results into Diia‑enabled digital workflows so claims, authorizations and routine reports move automatically rather than bottlenecking at paperwork (Spark NLP vs ChatGPT ICD‑10‑CM comparison by John Snow Labs; LLM‑guided tree‑search method for ICD coding; Diia‑enabled digital workflows for Ukrainian healthcare).

AI offers a clear upside for Ukraine - faster diagnoses, wider reach through telemedicine, and more personalised decision support - but success depends on practical guardrails: the USAID‑LHSS work shows telemedicine

“proved invaluable”

during the invasion and urges a unified strategy, expanded training (more than 1,000 medical workers in nearly 300 facilities trained), and strict interoperability with the national eHealth system (LHSS telemedicine best practices for Ukraine); likewise, a comprehensive review in Futurity Medicine review on AI personalising care highlights AI's power to personalise care while calling for data protection, human oversight and local validation.

For beginners the sensible path is iterative: start with small, well‑scoped pilots that keep a clinician in the loop, demand explainability and provenance, enforce interoperability with Diia/eHealth, invest in prompt‑engineering training, and use prompt‑first upskilling before scaling - practical learning like Nucamp AI Essentials for Work bootcamp teaches prompt craft and workplace AI skills that teams need to run safe pilots, measure outcomes, and scale responsibly.
