Launching during National Alzheimer’s Disease Awareness Month, ExploreYourBrainHealth.com combines memory and thinking activities, lifestyle factors and personal priorities to encourage greater engagement in brain health

BOSTON and NUTLEY, N.J., November 12, 2026 – In recognition of National Alzheimer’s Disease Awareness Month, Eisai Inc. and Linus Health today announced the launch of ExploreYourBrainHealth.com*, a free online resource designed to help adults take a more active role in understanding their brain health.

The interactive online brain health resource provides tailored educational information and practical resources that can help people understand their brain health, identify practical steps they can take to support it, and prepare for conversations with family members and healthcare providers.

ExploreYourBrainHealth.com guides users through three areas:

Memory and Thinking: A brief exercise, developed by clinicians, that explores how users remember, focus, and think
Lifestyle: Questions about factors that can affect brain health, such as sleep, activity, mood, and daily habits
Priorities: Questions about personal brain health priorities that matter most to each user, including the abilities and activities they most want to maintain in the years ahead

The experience culminates in a personalized educational Brain Health ReportTM that brings the results together and provides practical information, additional resources, suggestions for discussing the information with a healthcare provider and links to third-party resources. Drawing on decades of research across cognitive neuroscience, behavioral health, and preventive medicine, the report translates users' responses into personalized educational insights and considerations for discussion with their healthcare providers that can help people engage more actively in their brain health.

“Brain health is deeply personal, and people deserve approachable ways to better understand the factors that may impact it,” said Tory Burgio, Vice President, US Neurology Commercial, Eisai Inc. “Through our support of ExploreYourBrainHealth.com, we’re making it easier to explore brain health in a way that reflects individual priorities and provides practical resources that can support informed conversations with family members and health care providers.”

Recent research has found that brain health matters deeply to older Americans, but a significant education gap remains. According to a study by the University of Michigan (U-M) National Poll on Healthy Aging commissioned by the Alzheimer’s Association, nearly 9 in 10 adults ages 40 and older say maintaining brain health is very important, 99% rank it equal to or above physical health, and 82% associate it with clear thinking and good decision-making. Yet only 9% say they know a lot about how to support brain health.1 These findings highlight the need for accessible tools and resources that help people better understand and engage more proactively with their brain health.

“Many people are looking for ways to better understand their brain health, but often encounter misinformation, conflicting advice, or simply too much information to navigate on their own,” said David Bates, PhD, CEO and co-founder of Linus Health. “ExploreYourBrainHealth.com was designed in collaboration with cognitive health experts and leverages digital technology to deliver personalized, trusted educational information in a way that is practical and relevant to individual users. Our goal is to put brain health into individuals’ hands, empowering them to engage more actively in conversations about brain health with their health care providers.”

*ExploreYourBrainHealth.com is intended to support brain health education and awareness. It does not diagnose medical conditions, provide medical advice or treatment, or predict future cognitive decline. It is not a substitute for a clinical evaluation. Participants may choose to share their Brain Health Report with a healthcare provider to discuss any concerns about their brain health. Eisai funded development of this educational resource. Linus Health independently developed the resource and is solely responsible for all assessments, reports, and results.

ELMWOOD PARK, N.J., Nov. 10, 2026 | PRNewswire

‍ELLKAY received the highest innovation score of any vendor in the Frost Radar™: Healthcare Data Interoperability Platforms and Integration Engines, North America, 2026, and was named a Visionary Leader. Frost & Sullivan found that ELLKAY is one of the only vendors able to handle a complete data migration, from extraction and conversion to load and interface migration, in a single engagement.

Healthcare organizations are being asked to get their data ready for AI, absorb acquisitions, and retire legacy systems, often with the IT team they already have. The Frost Radar evaluates interoperability platforms and integration engines. ELLKAY’s score reflects work that goes past the engine. Customers get one accountable partner for interoperability, migrations, archives, and network connectivity - not another vendor to coordinate.

“ELLKAY stands out because it pairs long-term stability with real innovation. Organizations describe ELLKAY as a trusted co-architect, not just a technical vendor. Our research shows healthcare organizations now expect semantic understanding of their data and a partner that stays accountable after go-live. That is a large part of why ELLKAY earned the highest innovation score in this Frost Radar.”

The benefits of one partner, one platform
Frost & Sullivan cited ELLKAY’s move beyond interoperability alone, toward running the full data journey for customers, as a strength. Three customers show what that looks like.

San Ysidro Health has worked with ELLKAY since 2022. Ahead of its move to Epic, it chose ELLKAY’s healthcare data orchestration platform for interoperability, legacy data management, and migration instead of choosing a separate vendor for each capability. This work spanned across 50+ sites under Epic.

“Selecting ELLKAY enabled us to implement a holistic approach to our healthcare data strategy resulting in both cost savings and a sound foundation for future growth,” said Daniel Howard, VP & CIO, San Ysidro Health.

MultiCare Health System started with ELLKAY’s legacy data management offering. It then expanded to interoperability at one hospital, before entirely migrating its legacy interface management product to ELLKAY’s healthcare data orchestration platform.

“The future of healthcare belongs to organizations that can orchestrate data across every system, every workflow, and every care setting. ELLKAY enables that opportunity for MultiCare,” said Nick Shepard, AVP of Data Orchestration, MultiCare Health System.

West Feliciana Parish Hospital has worked with ELLKAY since 2012. The rural Louisiana hospital had been sending identical data from its EHR to every vendor endpoint over separate direct connections, straining the bandwidth required to get radiology images to off-site specialists. ELLKAY consolidated their connections to a single platform. The hospital has since added legacy data management functionality, so it can retire aging systems and keep long-term access to patient records as it moves to modern EHRs.

“ELLKAY assists us with data migration, creating an archive where records can be securely stored for long periods of time, ensuring nothing is lost in the process,” said Denise Paul, IT Director, West Feliciana Parish Hospital.

Where ELLKAY fits as the market shifts
Frost & Sullivan’s research found that customers now expect semantic interoperability, meaning systems that agree on what data means, not just exchange it. It also found that organizations increasingly see interoperability partners as “strategic trustees rather than infrastructure suppliers.”

Healthcare data orchestration unifies data across its full lifecycle, from connection to coordination to continuity, so the right data reaches the right place at the right time. Connectivity gets systems talking. Orchestration keeps that data usable once they are. ELLKAY has 95,000+ interfaces built and is backed by 4,000+ reusable interface templates. ELLKAY also supports the infrastructure behind CommonWell, a Designated QHIN under TEFCA. More than 10.8 billion health records are exchanged through the CommonWell network every year.

Built for what comes next
AI programs are only as good as the data underneath them. ELLKAY’s AI-assisted interface translations are trained on the interfaces it has built over the last 20+ years of customer work. Engineers review and approve every suggestion before anything goes live, and every action is logged.

“Customers may start with legacy data or interface management, but they expand with us because we deliver and stay accountable. This Frost & Sullivan recognition reinforces what they already know: ELLKAY brings far more than an integration engine. We’re an end-to-end data partner helping them solve for today’s challenges and build for what’s next."

Expands Mobile Patient Access Across Six Hospitals with Altera Digital Health's Sunrise CarePath

Southern California hospital network will be the fourth Sunrise client to empower patients with added self-management and communication capabilities

NIAGARA FALLS, N.Y. – October 21, 2026 – Altera Digital Health, a global health IT leader, today announced that NOR Healthcare Systems Corp. (NOR) will implement Sunrise™ CarePath at six Southern California-based hospitals to enhance patient access, help reduce missed appointments and streamline clinician workflows. The secure mobile application integrates with Sunrise, NOR’s existing electronic health record (EHR), and will enable patients across the system to manage their care and engage directly with their care teams.

Altera will provide configuration, training and go-live support to the following facilities over the coming months:

·      Bellflower Behavioral Health Hospital
·      Los Angeles Community Hospital
·      Norwalk Community Hospital
·      Southern California Hospital at Hollywood
·      Southern California Hospital at Culver City
·      Van Nuys Behavioral Health Hospital

Sunrise CarePath gives patients greater autonomy throughout their care journeys, from appointment self-scheduling and prescription refill requests, to bill review and access to secure payment links. Following deployment, NOR patients will be able to use their everyday mobile devices to download patient education materials and review data including vitals, immunizations and lab results. Appointment reminders, billing notifications, patient alerts and secure messaging capabilities will help bridge gaps between appointments for patients and their care teams to improve care plan adherence and patient satisfaction.

“Patient needs don’t end when they walk out the door after a visit or outside typical business hours. We recognized an opportunity with Sunrise CarePath to better meet patients where they are, on their own time, right on their smartphones,” said David Colarusso, CIO, Healthcare Systems of America, NOR’s parent company. “This implementation is a meaningful step forward not only in how we connect with patients, but also in our organization’s digital journey and continued partnership with Altera.”

In addition to increasing patient access, healthcare organizations leveraging Sunrise CarePath can save staff time and improve operational efficiency by automating manual processes like appointment confirmations. Because the solution fully integrates with the Sunrise EHR, it automatically populates patient-entered data from forms into clinical documentation notes, supporting care continuity while reducing potential for errors.

“We're proud to partner with NOR to give its patients a direct line to their health information and care teams,” said Jay Adams, Group Leader, Altera Digital Health. “With so many competing pressures in healthcare today, Altera is focused on building solutions that deliver real value, not just critical capabilities, to the organizations we serve. Sunrise CarePath was developed to help drive tangible outcomes that truly matter to our clients: reducing no-shows, offloading manual work to free up time and removing patient access barriers.”

Unveiled at last year's summit, the enhanced workflow has seen swift adoption among clinicians, providing care teams with faster access to critical patient information, reducing duplicate testing, and supporting more informed clinical decisions. The network now provides access to health information for more than 43 million patients nationwide regardless of the EHR of record.

At Ozarks Healthcare (West Plains, MO), Chief Medical Information Officer and Chief of Staff Priscilla A. Frase, MD was in the midst of onboarding physicians on the new Consolidated Patient Summary when she witnessed its immediate impact.

“We had a patient boarding in the ED whose disposition was challenging to determine, and the provider needed information from another facility,” she explained. “Within five minutes of giving that provider access, he was able to get the records from the exact hospital and specialist he needed in another state and make the disposition plans."

Dr. Frase also recounted the compelling story of a patient who showed subtle signs of an underlying cardiac condition. After talking with the patient and reviewing external sources through Traverse Exchange — including medication changes and recent primary care and specialist visits from offices that were two hours away— she recommended a focused cardiac intervention, which revealed a critical, previously undetected blockage. The patient credits her with saving their life.

At Schneck Medical Center in Seymour, Indiana, clinicians access external patient information for more than 75 percent of emergency department arrivals, according to Vice President & Chief Information Officer Craig Rice.
"When providers can see tests that were recently completed elsewhere, they often don't need to repeat them," said Rice. "That saves time, avoids unnecessary testing, reduces costs, and helps clinicians make more informed decisions."

This is a partnerships and product enablement role, not a sales role. You will manage working relationships with key EHR vendor partners (Epic, Oracle, etc) and other health tech partners and turn those relationships into two things: differentiated product capabilities and an enabled commercial team that knows how to sell them. You will sit close to both Product and Go to Market, translating what's happening on the partner side into work each team can act on.

One unified Enterprise Imaging platform brings workflow, streaming, cloud, and AI together to help clinicians stay focused and imaging organizations reduce complexity.

CARLSTADT, N.J: 14 September 2026 “Clinical attention has become one of healthcare’s most valuable resources. The technology surrounding clinicians should preserve focus, not compete for it,” said Nathalie McCaughley, President, AGFA HealthCare. “At RSNA 2026, we’re showing how Enterprise Imaging continues to evolve around one consistent clinical experience. By bringing workflow, intelligence, and information together around how clinicians naturally work, we can reduce friction and help keep clinical attention where it matters most.”

At RSNA 2026, AGFA HealthCare will demonstrate how a unified approach to Enterprise Imaging can help healthcare organizations address a growing challenge: imaging volumes and clinical complexity continue to increase, while radiologists and imaging teams are being asked to do more across increasingly distributed care environments. Every separate login, disconnected application and unnecessary workflow step competes for clinical attention.

At booth #2119, visitors will experience how viewing, workflow orchestration, streaming, cloud, AI, reporting, and interoperability come together in one Enterprise Imaging platform. The result is a consistent clinical experience - designed to reduce workflow friction, simplify operations, and evolve as the needs of healthcare and imaging organizations change.

One Platform. One Clinical Experience.

Rather than asking clinicians to navigate a collection of connected applications, AGFA HealthCare is bringing capabilities into one unified clinical workspace.

At RSNA, visitors will see how streaming extends a consistent diagnostic experience across hospital, home and distributed reading environments, while native advanced visualization brings sophisticated image review directly into the workflow. RUBEE® Orchestrator coordinates work across teams and locations, helping get the right case to the right clinician at the right time.

Intelligence is increasingly embedded into that experience as well. RUBEE® AI enables results from curated and third-party algorithms to be surfaced directly within the clinical workflow, while innovation previews of native clinical AI capabilities will show how relevant context and assistance can be surfaced closer to the point of interpretation.* The intent is straightforward: use technology and intelligence to support clinical expertise without adding another layer that clinicians have to manage.

Modernizing Enterprise Imaging Without Starting Over

RSNA attendees will also see how AGFA HealthCare is helping organizations modernize Enterprise Imaging according to their own infrastructure and cloud strategies.The same Enterprise Imaging platform can support cloud/SaaS, hybrid, and on-premises environments, allowing healthcare organizations to move at the pace that makes sense for them while maintaining a consistent clinical foundation.

For organizations moving to SaaS, AGFA HealthCare Enterprise Imaging Cloud delivers the Enterprise Imaging platform through a cloud-native SaaS architecture designed for enterprise scale, while reducing the operational burden on internal IT teams.

The approach is already delivering results.Tampa General Hospital (TGH) selected AGFA HealthCare Enterprise Imaging Cloud, delivered as a fully managed SaaS solution on AWS, as part of its strategy to consolidate six disparate PACS environments and multiple legacy cardiology archives.

TGH completed its enterprise deployment in just four months, simplifying infrastructure management and creating a scalable foundation for continued growth while allowing its IT teams to shift attention from routine infrastructure management toward higher-value clinical and operational initiatives.

Extending the Conversation at RSNA

Beyond the booth experience, AGFA HealthCare will bring imaging leaders together throughout RSNA for conversations focused on the clinical, operational and technology challenges shaping Enterprise Imaging.

Educational sessions will include Radiology Without Boundaries: Connecting Public and Private Imaging Through the Cloud, a Lunch & Learn exploring how cloud is enabling new approaches to connected imaging networks, distributed reading and collaboration across public and private environments. Imaging in Flow: Connecting Daily Radiology Workflow to Clinical and Operational Outcomes will bring healthcare leaders together to explore the impact of Enterprise Imaging on the delivery of patient care and operational performance.

At booth #2119, AGFA HealthCare will also host Peer-to-Peer Conversations, giving imaging leaders an opportunity to connect directly with organizations already using Enterprise Imaging and exchange practical perspectives on their experiences and strategies.

AGFA HealthCare will also participate in the Radiology Reimagined demonstration with Epic and other industry collaborators, showcasing how open standards can connect the EHR, Enterprise Imaging, AI and reporting within one synchronized clinical workflow.

“The value of Enterprise Imaging starts with the clinical experience,” McCaughley said. “That means bringing the information, tools and intelligence clinicians need into a workflow that reduces friction and helps them stay focused on interpretation and decision-making. Behind that experience, imaging organizations use Enterprise Imaging as a foundation that simplifies operations, supports growth and continuously innovate.”

New customer outcomes show what healthcare organizations recover when they orchestrate that work with a single accountable partner instead of managing it vendor by vendor.

ELMWOOD PARK, N.J., August 25, 2026 | PRNewswire

ELLKAY, the leader in healthcare data orchestration, today shared customer outcomes from six healthcare organizations that consolidated interfaces, archives, and network connectivity with a single accountable partner.

The average healthcare IT leader manages more than 40 vendors, often several for interface engines, several more for archiving retired systems, and one or more for network connectivity. The coordination between them rarely appears as its own line item. Instead, it shows up as staff time, and as budget that never reaches the clinical and operational work it was meant to fund.

"Every healthcare organization in the country is under pressure to do more with less," said Ajay Kapare, President & CEO of ELLKAY. "And every one of them is planning for AI, value-based care, and consolidation, each of which assumes data already moves cleanly between systems. It doesn't. Fragmented data management compounds both the cost and the risk. Instead of paging hospital IT staff at 2 a.m. to fix a connection nobody owns, we are proving data orchestration is the natural next step in making healthcare data meaningful, and in making the clinical and operational outcomes healthcare organizations are investing in achievable."

That's what healthcare data orchestration means in practice. A technology platform that owns data across its full lifecycle, from connection to coordination to continuity, so the right data reaches the right place at the right time — driving significant financial, operational, and clinical outcomes.

The results below come from organizations across a range of regions and community types that consolidated this work with ELLKAY:

Lehigh Valley Health Network achieved more than 60% cost savings across more than 120 archiving projects.

West Feliciana Parish Hospital reduced 20 redundant data connections to a single connection.

Health Choice Network decommissioned more than 40 legacy EHR systems.

San Ysidro Health unified more than 50 sites under Epic while supporting 161,000 patients.

San Juan Regional Medical Center gained direct control over its integrations without adding IT staff.

Hawaiʻi Island Community Health Center brought its legacy EHR and dental systems into one environment while keeping more than 100,000 historical patient records accessible.

Across all six, the time and budget recovered went toward the same thing. This allowed these organizations to tackle work they could not get to while managing the connections themselves.

"The value of orchestration isn't measured by how much data you move," said Nick Shepard, AVP of Data Orchestration at MultiCare Health System, which has moved its full interface estate to ELLKAY. "It's measured by the decisions that data enables. The future of healthcare belongs to organizations that can orchestrate data across every system, every workflow, and every care setting. ELLKAY enables that opportunity for MultiCare."

The same accountability problem shows up on a national scale. Within CommonWell Health Alliance, ELLKAY's identity resolution technology has cut 1.2 billion patient records down to 470 million real people, eliminating more than 730 million duplicate and inconsistent entries. Duplicate and mismatched records are one of the most common reasons AI and analytics initiatives stall after they are funded, which is why identity resolution is the first step in orchestration. ELLKAY does this work as CommonWell's exclusive Technical Service Provider, a designation no other company holds, across a network reaching more than 261 million individuals and 125,000 provider sites.

Connectivity gets systems talking. Orchestration is the technology that keeps the data usable once those systems are. That's the work ELLKAY does for healthcare organizations: one platform driving outcomes end to end, delivered by one accountable partner.

About ELLKAY
ELLKAY orchestrates the interfaces, networks, and data behind healthcare's leading organizations, connecting 750+ EHR systems and 58,000+ practices nationwide. For 20+ years, we've been the partner health systems, labs, payers, and health IT companies count on most, running 95,000+ interfaces and 4,000+ reusable interface templates so nothing falls to someone else to finish. One partner across the full data lifecycle, putting the right data in the right place at the right time, for the clinician making a call, the AI initiative that needs a real foundation, and the budget that shouldn't be paying for the gaps in between.
