Availity and Vim Partner to Streamline Care Gap Notification and Closure Process
The partnership leverages a multi-channel approach that surfaces action-oriented risk and quality gaps in providers' electronic health record (EHR) workflow, allowing them to submit the required information quickly and securely, while at the point-of-care.

Achieving this level of efficiency with care gap closure is critical for payers, especially as they look to improve HEDIS® performance and Stars ratings. Many payers still rely on manual, paper-based processes to notify and address care gaps that place a heavy administrative burden on providers, resulting in low adoption and engagement.
Leveraging digital payer-provider collaboration and bidirectional EHR integration
For more than 20 years, Availity has been a leader in developing digital tools designed to reduce administrative waste and improve payer-provider engagement. Availity was the recipient of the KLAS Points of Light 2025 for its innovative digital tools within Availity's multi-payer provider portal, which streamline quality and risk care gap reporting and closure.
'With Availity and Vim's partnership, the power of this streamlined care gap closure process extends beyond the Availity portal to the EHR, allowing payers to capture the attention of providers closer to the point of care,' said Ashley Basile, Availity Clinical Chief Product Officer. 'Vim seamlessly integrates care gap insights directly into EHR workflows, enabling healthcare providers to work more efficiently, while also enhancing patient outcomes and payer operations. Now Availity can be a one-stop shop for health plans looking maximize care gap closure via multiple provider destinations and workflow tools.'
A single source of truth for payers
In addition to reducing the administrative burden on providers, the partnership helps payers improve data integrity and reporting by capturing real-time care gap updates through both Vim Connect and Availity's Essentials portal while continuously synchronizing care gap data.
'At Vim, we believe that the future of value-based care depends on meeting providers where they are: inside their workflow, not outside of it. Our expanded partnership with Availity turns that belief into action. By embedding real-time, bidirectional data exchange directly into EHRs, we're removing the friction that slows down care and creating scalable infrastructure for payers and providers to align. This is what seamless, connected healthcare looks like,' said Josh Stern, Chief Business Officer of Vim.

CUPE: Liberals reward Air Canada's refusal to bargain fairly by crushing flight attendants' Charter rights
TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Air Canada asked the government to crush underpaid flight attendants' Charter rights, and Jobs Minister Patty Hajdu only waited a few hours to deliver. The Liberal government has invoked Section 107 of the Canada Labour Code to end a strike by Air Canada flight attendants fighting to end unpaid work and poverty wages. "The Liberals have talked out of both sides of their mouths. They said the best place for this is at the bargaining table. They refused to correct this historic injustice through legislation," said Wesley Lesosky, President of the Air Canada Component of CUPE. "Now, when we're at the bargaining table with an obstinate employer, the Liberals are violating our Charter rights to take job action and give Air Canada exactly what they want — hours and hours of unpaid labour from underpaid flight attendants, while the company pulls in sky-high profits and extraordinary executive compensation." CUPE came to the table with data-driven and reasonable proposals for a fair cost-of-living wage increase and an end to forced unpaid labour. Air Canada responded by sandbagging the negotiations. The Liberal government is rewarding Air Canada's refusal to negotiate fairly by giving them exactly what they wanted. This sets a terrible precedent. Contrary to the Minister's remarks, this will not ensure labour peace at Air Canada. This will only ensure that the unresolved issues will continue to worsen by kicking them down the road. Nor will it ensure labour peace in this industry — because unpaid work is an unfair practice that pervades nearly the entire airline sector, and will continue to arise in negotiations between flight attendants and other carriers.

'This government is anti-union and anti-worker': CUPE NS Denounces Use of Bill 107
HALIFAX, Nova Scotia--(BUSINESS WIRE)--CUPE Nova Scotia strongly condemns the federal government's decision to interfere in workers' right to collective bargaining and job action by invoking Section 107 of the Canada Labour Code. 'Clearly, this government is anti-union and anti-worker,' said Alan Linkletter, CUPE Nova Scotia President. 'Forcing workers back on the job instead of supporting free and fair collective negotiations directly contradictions workers' rights that are guaranteed under the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.' Air Canada has asked the government to crush striking workers' Charter rights, and Federal Labour minister Patty Hajdu is ready to deliver. Hajdu announced that the federal government will be invoking Section 107 at a press conference this afternoon, citing the financial welfare of Canadians and the economy at large as a deciding factor for this decision. 'She says this move is for the financial security of Canadians—are these workers not Canadians? Does their welfare not matter? How can you be financially secure when you don't even get paid for all of the hours you work?' Contrary to the Minister's remarks, this will not ensure labour peace in Canada. This will only push this fight onto the next group of workers in negotiations, while Air Canda's flight attendants continue to work for a billion-dollar company for free. Flight attendants are only paid when the plane is moving, and work as many as 35 unpaid hours a month performing vital duties that ensure the safe and smooth operation of each flight. Now, instead of paying flight attendants for all the hours they work, Air Canada has clearly sought help from the federal government to continue exploiting their employees. 'Minister Hajdu's comments indicate a clear lack of respect for workers' rights,' said Sherry Hillier, President of CUPE Newfoundland and Labrador and National General Vice President for Atlantic Canada. 'By using Section 107 to force workers back on the job yet again, they're setting a pattern. And that pattern is that Liberals don't care about Canadians.' Recent polling data indicates that 9 out of 10 Canadians support Air Canada flight attendants' fight for fair pay. 88% per cent of Canadians believe flight attendants should be paid for all work-related duties including boarding, delays, and safety checks. 76% support raising their pay to reflect the important safety role they play. 59% believe the federal government should respect flight attendants' right to take job action–even if it causes travel disruptions. CUPE represents over 10,000 Air Canada flight attendants across the country, and workers have been demonstrating at Halifax Stanfield International Airport since 6AM. 'Messages of support have been pouring in for these workers from across the country,' continued Linkletter. 'Canadians stand with us. Our elected representatives should, too.'
