Datavant Commits to CMS Aligned Network Framework to Accelerate Interoperability and Improve Secure Patient Record Exchange
NEW YORK, July 30, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Datavant, the data collaboration platform trusted for healthcare, today announced its commitment to become a Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS) Aligned Network. As part of this commitment, Datavant is accelerating initiatives already underway to make health information compliantly accessible, secure, and actionable. "The CMS Health Tech Ecosystem Framework reinforces what we at Datavant believe: every healthcare decision should be powered by the right data, at the right time, in the right format," said Datavant CEO, Kyle Armbrester. "Achieving true interoperability is difficult - but we will be able to overcome obstacles faster when we work together." Datavant has built the largest, most diverse health data exchange network in the U.S., working with more than 80,000 hospitals and clinics, every health insurance company in the U.S., 18 of the top 20 pharmaceutical companies, government agencies, and more than 300 real-world data partners. The Company's privacy-preserving technologies and interoperability solutions directly support CMS' goals of modernizing health data exchange while maintaining the highest standards of compliance-by-design and data integrity. "The harsh truth is that healthcare today is running on decades-old technology systems and regulations. We cannot manage the vastness and complexity of health information today using yesterday's technology and practices. While there is a lot of work to do to bridge the gaps between disparate data sources to enable secure, compliant, and efficient use of health information for decision-making, this collective commitment is an essential step in the right direction. We look forward to building on our pledge and working with the Administration and companies across the industry to expand, innovate, and enable the compliant use of data to improve health outcomes," added Armbrester. About Datavant Datavant is the data collaboration platform trusted for healthcare.

Investment by global companies in Ireland so far in 2025 could create more than 10,000 jobs
INVESTMENT by global companies in Ireland during the first half of this year could lead to the creation of more than 10,000 jobs in the country. IDA Ireland, the Irish Government's inward investment promotion agency, also revealed there have been 179 investments so far this year, a 37 per cent increase on the same period last year. The agency announced the figures today as it published its mid-year results and its annual report for 2024. "Today's figures demonstrate Ireland's continued attractiveness as a trusted partner and a proven investment location, speaking to our many strengths in areas such as innovation and talent as well as our stable, pro-enterprise business landscape," said IDA Ireland CEO Michael Lohan. "It also points to our resilience in the face of continuing global economic uncertainty." New investments and expansions Notably, 52 of the investments are new or first-time investors into the country and include health data company Datavant and PlayStation creators Sony Interactive Entertainment. Meanwhile, 41 investments will be expansions from existing client companies, growing and further embedding their operations. Companies boosting their Irish operations this year include telecommunications firm Ericsson, tech giant IBM and Japanese pharmaceutical company Astellas. Of the investments, 43 are research, development and innovation (RD&I) projects, 34 have been made across the areas of green capital and sustainability, while 91 (51 per cent) have been into regional locations outside of Dublin. In its annual report, IDA Ireland highlighted the increased global competition for foreign direct investment (FDI) as more countries compete for fewer investments, while the scale and impact of projects grows. However, with its strong foundation of global companies, world-class talent base and exceptional reputation for RD&I, IDA Ireland believes the country is well positioned to secure future emerging opportunities. 'Premier location' "IDA Ireland continues to partner with new and existing clients to support them in their investment endeavours here, to help their global competitiveness, and to deliver economic impact across all regions of the country," said Mr Lohan. "None of this can happen without the support of the Irish Government through the Department of Enterprise, Tourism & Employment, the contribution and commitment of our many stakeholders and partners, and our team in Ireland and overseas, all working to position Ireland as the premier location for FDI." Meanwhile, Enterprise Minister Peter Burke said: "I am pleased to see the positive trends in the volume of Foreign Direct Investment so far this year. "They show Ireland retains its attractiveness as a competitive location for companies seeking a stable and cutting-edge environment from which to grow their business."

Datavant to Acquire Ontellus to Transform Medical Record Retrieval with Tech-Enabled Health Records Retrieval and Claims Intelligence Solutions
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Datavant, a leading health data platform company, today announced that it has signed an agreement to acquire Ontellus, a leading provider of health records retrieval and claims intelligence from Aquiline, a private investment firm specializing in financial services and technology and Capstreet, a Houston-based lower middle market private equity firm. With this acquisition, Ontellus will join Datavant to deliver an integrated, digital-first platform that connects those with health records to those who need them easily, quickly and securely. In addition to driving value to providers, freeing up more of their time to focus on patient care, this acquisition will transform the experience for requesters from a largely manual and time consuming process to a more efficient, digital process. The combined organization will reduce administrative burden for Datavant's network of over 80,000 health care providers, clinics, hospitals and health system partners, who routinely manage requests for health records—vital for life insurance underwriting, injury claims, and legal case work. Today, the record retrieval process remains highly fragmented, with inconsistent workflows, procedures, and data formats across thousands of organizations. By joining forces, Datavant and Ontellus reaffirm their shared commitment to simplify this complexity and improve access to records to ensure that confidential health records are digitized in a secure and timely manner to authorized parties. 'Moving health data securely and compliantly from where it sits to where it needs to be in the right format to authorized users is one of the industry's biggest challenges,' said Datavant CEO Kyle Armbrester. 'In addition to driving value to our health care providers, freeing up more of their time to focus on patient care, this acquisition will transform the experience for requesters from a largely manual and time consuming process to a more efficient, digital process that leverages Datavant's deep expertise in privacy preservation and compliance. We are delighted to welcome Ontellus' world-class team and work with them to further transform the health data request process for all of our customers.' Ontellus has digitized its records retrieval business into a nationwide platform through which record requestors have direct access to providers. Additionally, through its canvassing services, Ontellus delivers detailed claimant treatment timelines to validate claims or uncover preexisting conditions, helping customers reduce unnecessary and costly claims exposure. Datavant will join Ontellus' capabilities with its own digital connectivity capabilities to create a highly tech-enabled integrated platform offering to better serve all customers. Ontellus CEO, Vince Cole, will join Datavant's Executive Leadership Team, reporting directly to Kyle Armbrester, Datavant CEO. 'By combining Ontellus' industry-leading request fulfillment infrastructure with Datavant's advanced connectivity and data exchange capabilities, we're enabling faster, more precise access to critical health information—not only for healthcare providers, but also for legal and insurance professionals who rely on timely, accurate data to support claims and compliance. We are deeply grateful to our investor partners, Aquiline Capital Partners and The Capstreet Group, whose strategic guidance and resources have powered our growth and product innovation,' said Vince Cole, CEO of Ontellus. Houlihan Lokey served as buyside financial advisor to Datavant, assisting in evaluating and negotiating the acquisition.
