hunterAI Launches Multi-Million Dollar Savings Program for Healthcare Organizations
hunterAI is addressing the cost pressure being felt in the Healthcare industry by delivering contingency based self-funding savings programs.
'This initiative will return millions to the healthcare sector, providing immediate and long-lasting value for these organizations and their communities.' — Jeff Heenan-Jalil, CEO of hunterAI
SCOTTSDALE, AZ, UNITED STATES, January 28, 2025 / EINPresswire.com / -- hunterAI is excited to launch its Working Capital Accelerator Program, an innovative solution designed specifically for health plans and their system-owned organizations. This initiative leverages cutting-edge AI and financial expertise, with a proven track record to uncover hidden savings and optimize working capital. The announcement comes on the heels of the Health Plan Alliance (HPA) Fall Leadership Forum in Sonoma, CA, where a powerful fireside chat hosted by Joe Lastinger, President of HPA, brought together Bonnie Graham, VP of Finance at ChristianaCare, Jason Rife, Managing Director at EY, and Jeff Heenan-Jalil, CEO of hunterAI to discuss the $140M savings blueprint that was implemented at ChristianaCare, DE.
'HPA currently supports 45 Independent/Provider-Sponsored (IPS) health plans. Our health plans and their system owners need solutions that deliver real impact without disruption,' said Joe Lastinger, President of HPA. 'ChristianaCare proves that significant savings are achievable with the right tools and expertise.'
What Makes This Program Unique. The Working Capital Accelerator Program is only a component of the overall project rolled out to ChristianaCare. This program represents two key components from the full project, acting as the beachhead for the savings blueprint. The Working Capital Accelerator Program is designed to address the unique challenges of health plans, especially those owned by or operating within integrated delivery networks (IDNs). Unlike traditional approaches, this program is:
• Risk-Free: 100% contingency based. If savings aren't delivered, there is no cost.
• Accretive to Existing Suppliers: Works alongside current financial systems and providers, amplifying their results without disruption.
• Fast & Proven: Delivers measurable results in 1-3 months, based on a proven blueprint from ChristianaCare.
• Collaborative by Design: hunterAI and third party experts, work closely with health plans and system owners to tailor solutions to their specific needs.
'Provider-sponsored health plans are highly interconnected with their hospital and system owners. Because this program is built for these organizations, the impact is significant across the entire enterprise,' said Jeff Heenan-Jalil, CEO of hunterAI. 'This initiative will return millions to the healthcare sector, providing immediate and long-lasting value for these organizations and their communities.'
Collaborating with third-party experts, such as EY and Wipro Technologies, we work with health plans and system owners to drive tangible results. This program is ready, available, and offers a unique opportunity for healthcare organizations to optimize their financial performance.

Tempus Introduces Fuses, A Program Designed to Transform Therapeutic Research and Build the Largest Diagnostic Platform Using its Novel Foundation Model
CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Tempus AI, Inc. (NASDAQ: TEM), a technology company leading the adoption of AI to advance precision medicine and patient care, today announced the launch of its Fuses program. This initiative will harness Tempus' proprietary dataset to generate valuable insights for both patient care and research, combining the power of its data and machine learning capabilities to develop an AI enabled-diagnostic platform offering physicians the largest suite of algorithmic tests designed to make precision medicine a reality. Over the past decade, Tempus has built a multimodal data library of over 40 million research records, including more than 1.5 million records with matched clinical data linked with genomic information, 2 million records with imaging data, and approximately 300,000 records with genomic and whole transcriptomic data. The scale and size of this data library will allow the company to uncover groundbreaking discoveries that were previously out of reach. Fuses will accelerate Tempus' comprehensive testing portfolio, expanding its suite of AI-enabled diagnostics. Insights from Fuses will be developed into clinically validated algorithmic diagnostics that may enable highly personalized care, such as identifying patients unlikely to respond to approved therapies or those at risk of severe treatment-related events. Tempus has already begun this work with last year's launch of its Immune Profile Score (IPS) a multimodal biomarker that can be used as a prognostic indicator for adult patients with metastatic pan-solid tumors eligible for immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI)-based therapy. 'We have spent the last ten years building, scaling, and curating one of the most comprehensive datasets in our industry, and now we are well positioned to develop the world's largest diagnostic model, designed to answer critical, unsolved questions and make our diagnostics smarter and more personalized,' said Eric Lefkofsky, Founder and CEO of Tempus. 'We are on the brink of delivering tangible, transformative change in matching the right therapies to the right patients - making personalized care a reality for millions.' The foundational model behind Fuses is learning generalizable rules determining prognosis and drug benefit in real-world practice. With the goal of furthering researchers' understanding of why certain clinical trials fail, identify new indications for investigational drugs, optimize trial design, and uncover combination therapies to broaden patient benefit. By revealing biomarker rules, the model may also surface mechanisms of drug response and resistance to inspire a new generation of companion diagnostics and therapeutic research. About Tempus Tempus is a technology company advancing precision medicine through the practical application of artificial intelligence in healthcare. With one of the world's largest libraries of multimodal data, and an operating system to make that data accessible and useful, Tempus provides AI-enabled precision medicine solutions to physicians to deliver personalized patient care and in parallel facilitates discovery, development and delivery of optimal therapeutics. The goal is for each patient to benefit from the treatment of others who came before by providing physicians with tools that learn as the company gathers more data.

Is a $5,000 DOGE stimulus check a real thing? What we know
In February, President Donald Trump said he was considering a plan to pay out $5,000 stimulus checks to American taxpayers from the savings identified by billionaire Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). Are they happening? No official plan or schedule for such a payout has been released, and a decision on the checks would have to come from Congress, which has so far been cool to the idea. And there have been questions as to how much DOGE has actually saved. The idea was floated by Azoria investment firm CEO James Fishback, who suggested on Musk's social media platform X that Trump and Musk should "should announce a 'DOGE Dividend'" from the money saved from reductions in government waste and workforce since it was American taxpayer money in the first place. He even submitted a proposal for how it would work, with a timeline for after the expiration of DOGE in July 2026. "At $2 trillion in DOGE savings and 78 million tax-paying households, this is a $5,000 refund per household, with the remaining used to pay down the national debt," he said in a separate post. Musk replied, "Will check with the President." "We're considering giving 20% of the DOGE savings to American citizens and 20% to paying down the debt," Trump said in a during the Saudi-sponsored FII PRIORITY Summit in Miami Beach the same month. DOGE has dismantled entire federal agencies, wiped out government contracts and led the firings of tens of thousands of federal workers, leaving many agencies struggling to continue operations. DOGE checks? Elon Musk dodges DOGE stimulus check question during Wisconsin rally: Here's what he said. Fishbeck suggested that the potential refund go only to households that are net-income taxpayers, or households that pay more in taxes than they get back. The Pew Research Center said that most Americans with an adjusted gross income of under $40,000 effectively pay no federal income tax. They would not be eligible. If DOGE achieves Musk's initial goal of stripping $2 trillion from U.S. government spending by 2026, Fishback's plan was for $5,000 per household, or 20% of the savings divided by the number of eligible households. If DOGE doesn't hit the goal, Fishback said the amount should be adjusted accordingly. 'So again, if the savings are only $1 trillion, which I think is awfully low, the check goes from $5,000 to $2,500,' Fishback said during a podcast appearance. 'If the savings are only $500 billion, which, again, is really, really low, then the [checks] are only $1,250.' However, while Musk talked about saving $2 trillion in federal spending during Trump's campaign, he lowered the goal to $1 trillion after Trump assumed office and said in March he was on pace to hit that goal by the end of May. At a Cabinet meeting in April, Musk lowered the projected savings further to $150 billion in fiscal year 2026. Musk left the White House at the end of May when his designation as a "special government employee" ended. DOGE, the advisory group he created, is expected to continue without him. That depends on who you ask. On its website, DOGE claims to have saved an estimated $175 billion as of May 30, "a combination of asset sales, contract and lease cancellations and renegotiations, fraud and improper payment deletions, grant cancellations, interest savings, programmatic changes, regulatory savings, and workforce reductions." The site says that works out to $1,086.96 saved per taxpayer. However, many of DOGE's claims have been exaggerated and several of the initiatives to slash agency workforces have been challenged in court. DOGE has been accused of taking credit for contracts that were canceled before DOGE was created, failing to factor in funds the government is required to pay even if a contract is canceled, and tallying every contract by the most that could possibly be spent on it even when nothing near that amount had been obligated. The website list has been changed as the media pointed out errors, such as a claim that an $8 million savings was actually $8 billion. On May 30, CNN reported that one of its reporters found that less than half the $175 billion figure was backed up with even basic documentation, making verification difficult if not impossible. Some of the changes may also end up costing taxpayers more, such as proposed slashes to the Internal Revenue Service that experts say would mean less tax revenue generated, resulting in a net cost of about $6.8 billion. Over the next 10 years, if IRS staffing stays low, the cumulative cost in uncollected taxes would hit $159 billion, according to the nonpartisan Budget Lab at Yale University. The per-taxpayer claim on the website is also inflated, CNN said, as it's based on '161 million individual federal taxpayers' and doesn't seem to include married people filing jointly.
