It looks like Apple will be heading into the Healthcare Industry as their upcoming IOS 11. 3 update will enable patients to view EMR’s or Electronic Medical Records as well as other pertinent clinical information right from their Apple device. This new Health Records feature utilizes the existing Health app currently on devices and goes a step further in allowing medical facilities to connect with you via API from their EMR systems so that they can share data back and forth between you and them.

Currently, 12 hospitals have signed on to test this beta software including well-known hospitals like: Johns Hopkins Medicine, Penn Medicine, and Cedars-Sinai in Los Angeles. In fact, just last week, Apple had announced this update regarding the Health App bringing together all hospitals and clinics so that it could eventually be easy for all users to have access to their medical data and have a choice when it comes to choosing their provider.

John Halamka, CIO of CareGroup Healthcare Systems saw this innovation and stated that, “Apple is significantly accelerating the provider-to-patient-to-provider approach with IOS 11. 3.” With technology constantly innovating in this space, it’s exciting to see the immense possibilities that will come into play in the years to come.

Black Book: AI may make some outsourced health plan work cheaper to bring in-house

Black Book: AI may make some outsourced health plan work cheaper to bring in-house

U.S. health plan administrative costs rose 2.7% to about $69.2 billion in the first half of 2026, even as margins improved to 4.1%. Black Book Research's 2027 outlook says AI is starting to move payer sourcing in both directions. Demand for specialist vendors stays strong in some functions, while automation could make in-house or hybrid models viable in others. The report recommends comparing each major outsourced service with rival vendors and the best internal or hybrid option, and checking whether projected savings become actual cash.

  • 01Every major outsourced payer service should be benchmarked against a rival vendor and against the plan's best feasible internal or hybrid model, a three-way contest at each renewal.
  • 02Avoided vacancies, projected productivity gains and payment recoveries are not recurring cash, so outsourcing savings should not be assumed to fund AI until the service, AI and funding cases each stand on their own.
  • 03Provider data sits on both sides of the sourcing question: it is a top pain point and a specialist-demand area, yet also one of the functions where automation could make hybrid or in-house models viable.

Hugh Chatham surgical tech program draws 65 for 12 seats

Hugh Chatham surgical tech program draws 65 for 12 seats

Hugh Chatham Health and Alleghany Health marked one year with Advocate Health as a surgical technology program drew 65 applicants for 12 seats. An anniversary release lists $11.3 million in pay and rewards and a $19.3 million capital figure, and says nearly 1,000 patients were connected to specialty and higher-acuity services through Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist. Local training seats look like the next limit in Elkin.

  • 01In rural North Carolina, a new surgical technology program drew more than five applicants per seat, which points to training capacity, not interest, as the thing to expand.
  • 02Pay and rewards totaled $11.3 million in year one, versus a $19.3 million capital figure—about 58% as large, by MarketScale’s arithmetic.
  • 03Nearly 1,000 patients were connected to specialty and higher-acuity services versus just over 70 virtual consultations and encounters (about 14:1 by MarketScale’s arithmetic), with expanded virtual care planned for year two.
